- sparkman55 12y agoWell, the innovation is really about storing electricity. We've been generating and transmitting electricity for over a century now. Once we can store electricity (in batteries, for example), then intermittent power sources, like solar panels (and also wind turbines) become much more valuable. Energy storage is a very inconsequential market right now, but if smart-grid-connected Teslas really take off, then they become important not only to the automotive industry, but also the electricity and energy industries.
