    DID YOU KNOW that the Tesla battery will cost $100 million and over its life will only store about 100 million worth of electricity.
    100,000 KWHr capacity x.3/KWHr x 3,300 charge cycles

    Ie it can never recover its costs, even if the electricity going into it is free. Have you thought about that?

    A coal power station, costing $1 billion, will deliver 1000MW for 50 years, at $300,000 per hour payback 3333 hours, (138 days) thereafter it makes money!
