I'm so excited to see what happens in the remainder of the decade with this. I've been 100% on board the Tony Seba hype train since I saw the report on what it would take to have a fully renewable solar, wind and battery grid and the implications of that. It seems like we're actually on track for this to become a reality.

I can’t wait for every country to have home grown energy

No more having to deal with the Middle East and Russia for energy needs will be a massive benefit. Essentially it's that "energy security" conservatives pretend to care about.

Sadly it will be a long time before that happens. I wouldn't mind betting China an Russia keep it unavailable for some of the smaller countries that have fallen under their influence.
