The first eye-opener for large scale solar was the Austin Energy PPA last year that was priced at 5 cents. They had better think seriously about financing solar and wind arrays. During the midday hours, many grids will experience negative pricing as solar PV floods the market to the extent that the power cannot be stored.

Tesla hopes to open its first greenfield car factory in Austin by year end.) Lucid's wind-tunnel testing isn't yet independently confirmed. The Lucid also integrates its onboard "Wunderbox," a charging unit designed to allow the bi-directional, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) or vehicle-to-vehicle charging of the future.

If our country is going to spend money like a drunk sailor we should have spent it on building renewable energy power plants like Wind and Geothermal. Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal. We are facing a big problem with global warming.
