Until we get nuclear fusion as oppose to fission then all energy sources are dirty, even batteries are still dirty given the chemicals and mining needed to source the components but the silver lining is they don't produce pollution when in use and can be recovered and recycled.
The biggest worry for nuclear fusion is going to be the global power shift, this will not be pretty but at least the Arabs are pre-empting these things and that is why they built a totally new commerce and tourist venue Dubai ... they know regular income in their oil wealth is soon to flutter away hence they invested trillions building a whole new city.
Unlimited cheap energy will solve a lot of global issues, bring water to the deserts, food to the starving and probably by accident it will fuel climate change as you cannot simply change the nature of vast swathes of sandy deserts without affecting global weather patterns... fun time ahead if we ever get there.
