Palihapitiya proposes a $100-200 billion tax equity vehicle for hyperscalers to subsidize homeowner solar and storage.
“The next major thing is when you actually create a 100 or $200,000,000,000 tax equity vehicle, and you have them completely subsidize and pay for the electricity costs of homeowners.”
Palihapitiya reports Tesla plans to increase US solar production by an order of magnitude to over 100 gigawatts annually.
“They said, well, I think we're just going to increase the production of solar in America by an entire order of magnitude.”
Palihapitiya cites New Mexico data showing natural gas falling from all energy production to under 30% since 2003.
“Mexico just published solar and batteries. Yeah. New Mexico just published a study that said since 2003 to now, nat gas production went from effectively all the energy to less than 30%, again, replaced by a combination of wind and solar plus batteries.”
Palihapitiya says Tesla going all in on solar, sun is nuclear reactor just farther away
“Tesla is going all in on nuclear. Actually it’s going all in on solar but they are the same thing - the sun is a nuclear reactor, just farther away. https://t.co/XuuRCJ1oRS”

Solar power is equivalent to nuclear power because the sun is a nuclear reactor that is simply located farther away.
