Sleeping In Tesla Model S & X … India’s Ongoing Solar Boom … Toyota Prius…
The top 20 CleanTechnica stories of the week included a handful of blockbusters. Check out the stories below if you somehow missed them.
Tesla Powerwall + High Electricity Prices Driving Australians To Energy Storage
Australia is undergoing something of an energy crisis — growing demand combined with under-investment in the electric grid has recently led to a series of embarrassing blackouts, and electric rates are soaring. South Australia has just overtaken Denmark as the place with the world’s most expensive electricity.
Tesla Model 3 vs Competitors … Model S P100DL Crushing It … Kreisel Electric Win…
The top 20 CleanTechnica articles of the week are below, with little surprise that Tesla is again on top. We’re not sure why. From the enlightenment we’ve received from some commenters, Tesla’s cars are crap, Kool-Aid powered, and certainly not worth anyone’s sustained attention. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Greenlots Grows Into Thailand & Beyond With New BMW ChargeNow Deal

Old Coal & Nuclear Costs Don’t Compete With Wind & Solar Costs (+ Interview With…
Years ago, I wrote that many people don’t realize solar energy and wind energy are so cheap because they have a price or talking point stuck in their head from 10 years ago, 5 years ago, or even just 3 years ago. As much as we at CleanTechnica repeat the fact that wind and solar are often the cheapest option for new electricity capacity, people in the general public and even in highly related fields don’t realize that renewable energy costs have fallen so much so fast. They don’t realize that cleaner electricity options are often the cheapest options.
