How high is their current valuation relative to other energy storage companies? (Honestly, I don't know)


Another way to look at it: how big is the global market for gas peaker plants? If current trends continue, solar PV + batteries will be cheaper at some point than any fossil fuel[1], so at that point Telsa energy will begin to consume large chunks of that market.

According to this link[2] gas peaker plans were 50% of energy installs in 2013, the best link I could find from a quick search.
