This whole topic is about CO2 being pumped into our atmosphere thus warming the earth's atmosphere and exacerbating extreme weather patterns. I feel your response has failed to take that into consideration.
That said at least you are considering the problem and reaching for alternative ideas....its just they need to be non-CO2 producing.
We're already on the path to clean energy with wind and solar, etc. What is needed is to retain already sequestered carbon in the ground, and, increase forest and grassland acreage to sequester more co2, as well as other technologies. Of course this means changing our agricultural and logging practices. Insulation codes for buildings and water heaters need to be more stringent. We can't toss the baby out with the bathwater; we still need fossil fuels, especially natural gas. Lots of approaches are needed, including individual efforts. There is no single solution.
