We face an interesting future in energy. As the solar (PV) technology continues to mature and become much cheaper, the battery technology is making strides. It's not nearly ready for primetime, but the day is in reach to harvest solar and store it to support a domicile. As soon as that price point is reached, then the entire power grid is in for an interesting journey. Customers will drop off the grid, meaning grid maintenance becomes higher for existing customers. Power bills will rise drivng more to invest and disconnect from the grid, accelerating the cost increases for grid power again and again as the cycle repeats.

Clint and Dean are correct in that the novelty electric car industry is unknowing subsidized by all of us.

I still can't get the math of the truck recharge to work at anything that resembles domestic voltages.
