A brief note on using solar and batteries as generic power sources. Over the last few years of work at Terraform Industries, we’ve developed several useful heuristics to understand how rapid progress in solar and battery costs will change industry. This includes the bifurcation of industry between low capex, high energy material processing (eg synthetic fuels) and high capex high utilization end uses (eg data centers). This is important because energy abundance is key to growing prosperity. (Dotted lines by Jesse Peltan.) Solar panels are a revolutionary technology, one in which…
