This is quite an interesting read. It seems that battery-based energy storage has joined solar electricity generation in exponentially outperforming predictions. To the point where solar farm + batteries is now cost competitive as baseload generation everywhere except, quote, 'a handful of petrostates'. And that exception's probably going away within a year or two.
