But the old paradigm of a big central energy producing thingy is still going to be a major target of terrorists, foreign and domestic. Especially domestic these days. By covering 60-80% of rooftops with solar panels and vertical wind turbines at the single dwelling level, these terrorists will have had their hands tied.
