Build out PV as fast as possible now. Take the lying assholes at EPA pushing the CO2 lies, and give them an option....no job, no unemployment, but we have a new position that requires results in the brave new world of energy storage.

The grid was designed for dispatchable power sources. <br /><br />The $/watt numbers for solar are not correct unless you add in the REQUIRED back up generation on hot standby for when clouds pass over the solar arrays.
