This is utter bullshit. It probably used obsolete cost numbers and assumed batteries are the only storage mode used.


On what basis do you assume it's bullshit? This is a very emotional/irrational reaction to a study.


It's in gross disagreement with figures and modeling I've seen elsewhere.


Can I see the other figures/models?
