This should bring the cost down for home solar storage

thats cool. I like the idea of salt reactors too. I kinda figured we would all have tiny salt reactors to power each home when i first learned about em. Hardly hear a thing about them though, cant understand that one

All of this advancement will for sure legitimize electric vehicles in the near future. When they get the charge rate times into a period that makes them practical for the masses, its going to be game on. I rode in a friends Tesla S and he showed me the "ludicrous mode" -its is unreal how fast that heavy car is.

Instant torque with electric motors, there is almost no spool up like a gasser. When the ability to go solar direct to propulsion arrives solar will dominate. Or even tiny reactor based engines might be the ticket. We are still in the stone ages of electron displacement power sources
