Not sure why that's an either or? Do you believe the batteries should be subsidized - Yes, I think that they should be subsidized now. I normally don't like government involvement in markets other than protecting against externalities, but in this case I believe that subsidies can expedite innovation in the area. Once the market exists and the technology moves far enough along, I think that we will be able to slowly remove the subsidies and battery systems will be cheap enough to warrant their place in the market without. Also I strongly believe that the faster we move away from fossil fuels, the less lives will be lost to climate change. instead of the power going back into the grid - Not sure what you mean here. People sell back to the grid all the time. A battery backup system in sell mode is essentially another power plant. Great!
