Why Morgan Stanley Is Betting That Tesla Will Kill Your Power Company

Jason Koebler (3528235) writes One major investment giant has now released three separate reports arguing that Tesla Motors is going to help kill power companies off altogether. Earlier this year, Morgan Stanley stirred up controversy when it released a report that suggested that the increasing viability of consumer solar, paired with better battery technology—that allows people to generate, and store, their own electricity—could send the decades-old utility industry into a death spiral. Then, the firm released another one. Now, it's tripling down on the idea with yet another report that spells out how Tesla and home solar will "disrupt" utilities.

You're so ignorant of combo solar/wind turbines it's not even funny. Get the fuck out of here. Entire standing structure, plus blades, solar-paint coated. Generates electricity directly via photovoltaics, applied as a replaceable paint. Reduces the need for a larger wind turbine, reducing the need for larger more expensive generator head, also reduces te need for longer feeds of expensive thick copper cable.

You may run shit but you don't DESIGN shit like I do, so you need to shut the fuck up.
