This YouTube video by Tony Seba is stating that utility scale batteries of 2% disrupt 90% of fossil fuel peaker plants.<\/p>\n
This video has a lot of graphs showing the trends.<\/p>\n
https:\/\/youtu.be\/AV3MweskE0w<\/a><\/p>\n The amount of utility scale batteries needed to replace much of the peaker plants is just a small percentage.<\/p>\n 200 mile range EVs will be only $10,000 to $15,000 by 2025.<\/p>\n Oil demand will go down from 100m to 70m barrels per day, and crude oil prices will crash. Refineries will become stranded assets.<\/p>\n The total cost of solar plus 4 hours of battery storage is cheaper than the *operating costs* of conventional power plants. These power plants will become stranded assets.<\/p>\n The cost of transmission alone is more than the cost of solar plus batteries.<\/p>\n << Every factory, warehouse, business, building, shopping center, parking lot, house, everywhere will have SOLAR, BATTERIES…<\/p>\n For purely economic reasons. >><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This YouTube video by Tony Seba is stating that utility scale batteries of 2% disrupt 90% of fossil fuel peaker plants.
