1. This is excellent. It means we&#x27;re well on our way to sustainable energy generation. Wind and solar are only going to get cheaper. Even without subsidies, there is no reason to ever build another coal or oil fired generation facility. Natural gas will stick around until utility scale batteries ramp up, to where peaking plants are too expensive compared to utility scale batteries.<p>2. Nuclear is dead. Very dead. Thorium. Fast breeder. Pebble bed. I don&#x27;t care which you pick, no one is going to pour 10 years and $1-4 billion into a plant that won&#x27;t be cost competitive when it turns up (maybe some governments, but you can&#x27;t fix that; it&#x27;ll just get mothballed).<p>3. Utility scale batteries are going to be needed to make up for solar and wind&#x27;s capacity factor (availability). Tesla is going to clean up with its Gigafactory. Well done Elon. I hope Mars treats you well.<p>4. Any pollutants or negative externalities of both solar panel and battery production can be much better contained and managed than the output of a coal plant.<p>5. Cheaper renewables means even cheaper power available for the transition to electric vehicles.<p>6. First world demand for renewables will continue to drive down costs, allowing third world countries to piggyback off the cost savings. Remember how Africa leapfrogged with cell phones instead of land lines? Imagine battery packs and solar roofs in every home instead of traditional utilities. It&#x27;s <i>already feasible with current economics</i>.<p>Did I cover everything? Anything missing?
