The only real issue is WHERE is all the electricity generation going to come from?
Coal
solar
methane
hydro
wind turbines
nuclear
all of the above
“Coal

Yeah all of the above. Coal is on its way out in Texas though. It’s 7% of the total right now.
Texas is 46% solar, 7% wind, 7% nukes right this second.
Texas routinely goes 85+% wind,solar plus nukes during the day.
At night it hits 60-70% wind and nukes regularly too.

My homes are exporting power today as well. I will put well over 100kWh to the grid today over what I will use to keep the AC at the 67F it is set at right now. Tesla is full from yesterday because I didn’t drive it and it sat plugged in through midday sun.
I always charge my Telsa off the panels above it. It sees a supercharger once or twice a year mostly to New Orleans and Biloxi. It does Austin door to door , energy corridor and San Antonio all with no stops if I don’t want too. I always stop for BBQ or texmex or soul food if it’s a bucces stop I will supercharge it for as long as it takes to get snacks, jerky,leak and grab a six pack , oh yeah it’s FSD so hands free the whole way in every interstate and mostly door to door now too. Technically open container is a class A but what probable cause is there of the FSD is doing exactly the speed limit holding the lane better than any human ever could. They simply don’t have a valid reason to stop you in FSD mode and if they did your lawyer will hear them apart j. Court. When not if the damn feds get out of the way of real L3 autonomous driving FSD will be like robotaxi I will sit in the back seat and munch , drink and wwatch Netflix via Starlink.
