You can charge a model S from 20% to 100% in under 4 hours from the panels on my roof. The shortest day of the year at my latitude has 9 hours 59 mins of sunlight and every other day of the year has more than that. NOAA 30 year climate data confirmed what my solar tracker app on the inverters also saw over 220 days of sunlight in a year. On the shortest day of the year my panels made 120 kWh of electricity my large 4500+ sqft home used 30 that day with 90 sold to ERCOT. I could have used just 4 hours of that sun to fill a Tesla to the top with 330 miles plus. In the 5 years I have had my panels not a single month have they generated less than my home used in August I have 120+ kWh surplus days. 15,000 watts on the main house the guest home has its own system both back feed the grid and make a profit every month. Solar makes perfect sense in sunny Texas. No one has a oil well, oil gas separator, refinery with hydrocraker to yield the EPA required low sulfer petrol. Having panels on my roof is the equivalent to having all of that in my backyard as I can fully support a Tesla for well more than 80,000 miles per year of range just with the surplus power I sold to ERCOT last year.

I'm being facetious. There's still the insurmountable difficulty of battery life and what to do with dead batteries.

It's going to be an environmental disaster regardless. And with such a concentrated demand on electricity there will be a lot of scenarios "don't charge your cars. There's no power in the grid.." Which, is exactly what the ochlocracy wants. Total control by the totalitarians.
