The point of solar panels is not to ensure "solar profitability," but to make for a greener, better world. Its profitability is only justified insofar as it moves us towards that goal. If we want to switch to renewables, then sometimes we're going to have surplus, because of how renewables work. This is well known and discussed ad nauseam. If that makes power markets unstable, then the problem is with markets, not with there being too many solar panels.

@theluddite The problem becomes that solar panels will no longer be profitable to own. Even in a future where solar power is dominant, the real source of profits will come from whomever that can arbitrary the price swings. The solar panels themselves become an expense that is part of another business.

GM is going to lose a mountain of money. Ford released their BEVs right at the peak of the market and with sizable margins. They still lost money. Now GM is going to compete for scraps.

Meanwhile, a hybrid small car is ~$25k, and would easily be cheaper to own than any BEV GM is selling.

Things are really falling apart for Tesla in Europe now. This should continue to get worse for them as they have no new cars worth buying.

The ID7 will probably never come to the US. There's very little demand for such a vehicle.

Likely, the necessary "upgrades" that Ford demanded of its dealership network will be completely abandoned. We may even see Ford reimburse many dealerships.

I'm going to predict that Nissan never builds any BEVs there. Why does the world need yet another BEV factory? It doesn't, and Nissan is in no position to chase the bottom of the market.

The point is well-made: BEV dominance cannot happen without a well-funded charging network. But without strong growth, and competition from hybrids, this is not going to happen. As a result, BEVs become trapped as urban commuters, mainly owned by people with home charging.

My own view is that this is inevitable anyways. BEVs should never had been pushed as the only solution.
