Global solar energy supplies are growing rapidly, with nearly 10 times as much solar capacity installed today as there was a decade ago. As electric utilities and policymakers seek solutions for storing and dispatching energy on demand, concentrating solar-thermal power (CSP) is once again gaining traction.

If we are going to look beyond the EV itself to the energy that powers it, shouldn’t we do the same for the fossil fueled combustion car? Diesel or petrol starts as oil, on average 1,798 meters below the surface of the earth. A great deal of oil is extracted using what is called a pumpjack. That's just oil wells on land.

Significant cost reductions can be achieved by front-loading the deployment of renewables, mainly wind and solar photovoltaic, and by utilizing the technologies needed to balance their inherent intermittency, such as energy storage and thermal balancing power plants. As utilities do this, the mindset of energy leaders will change.
