This is the vision BTG Energy is working towards. Most homes will have batteries and all cars (most family + fleet cars, less than 1% of cars are enthusiats) will be electric. The combined battery storage available + solar panels (Which will be everywhere) will mean homes will be power producers and their energy usuage […]
