You are effectively saying: the thing we’ve been scaling 100+ years scales better than the things we’ve been scaling for 20 years. I agree. But, put 100 years

You are effectively saying: the thing we’ve been scaling 100+ years scales better than the things we’ve been scaling for 20 years. I agree. But, put 100 years of scale into solar/wind/batteries and the world looks very different: we’ll easily have 1 billion BEV and they’ll easily traverse the Nullarbor. I think scaling looks very different in the renewable space, I think adding 10Kw a billion times over is the better way to scale, and have a truly distributed energy network. Large scale power generation should be for large scale industry. If you wired up enough panels around the world… you don’t need a lot of storage (except for balancing) because the sun is always shinning somewhere. Regardless of what the solution looks like. My original point: drilling, refining and delivering oil globally is no where near the efficiency of local generation and consumption.
