This is bloody brilliant news if it works. Seems Tesla motors have developed a way to store energy generated by solar power, lowering costs to about 2cents/kw. Could also help wean us off of the need for fossil fuels. Edited by nickgusset (01 May 2015 9.28pm)

Whilst the idea is sound I think the practical side still has some way to go. Tesla have been at the forefront of technology for some time but behind the hype, reliability is a major issue. I may be wrong but I think it will be a good ten years before this really works. Then of course there is the question of just how much sun is need d to generate electricity

Not really sure what tesla are doing differently? Solar energy that can be stored on batteries has been around ages, unless this box encourages people to go off grid in which case this must be unbelievably efficient. I expect energy companies to dig their heels in & the government to tax users heavily to offset the losses incured by said energy companies.

If they haven't put something away for a rainy (sunny?) day then tough! It is not our government's responsibility to compensate them for the development of a greener system that they (the government) have also been taxing us to hilt to achieve!
