Solar panels are already cheap and efficient enough. The real cost is installation and red tape, which robots are about to solve. We're one breakthrough away from pollution-free energy.

We solved the solar panel problem. We should have had a huge party and like for, for about 15 years of my life, you know, so many of my family members said, I'm going to dedicate my entire career to clean energy and not polluting this world. So our children and our children's children have a clean place to live and we freaking solved it. The solar panels are good enough. 80% of the cost now is just getting them installed and the regulatory overhead. So now we're on the cusp of having the robots that can manufacture them very cheaply and install them for us. We should be having a huge party and racing to building those robots and and just say, "We did it! Now we have no pollution!" It's just right in front of us. We just need to execute on it.
