Sounds like Obama will attempt to raise subsidies in the US. Good for him, hope he succeeds. It's really damn stupid to let 100W per square foot of energy go to waste.
Even if we cut energy use by 50%, we'll STILL be making an immense contribution to global warming. And Americans seem to be terrified of nuclear power, so that leaves wind, solar, hydro, and geothermal, until (if) controlled fusion is perfected.
