[@SolvingTheMoneyProblem]

Great presentation.

[@platoscavealum902]

❤️ Solving The Money Problem , 👋 Sure is a great presentation! Good to see you here, Steven. ...I’ve been wanting to ask... if at some point, you would possibly be interested to cover some of Clayton Christensen’s theories about disruption, on your channel. I suspect you’re familiar with Professor Clayton Christensen’s work. One of his insights has to do with the competitive dynamics that happen under disruption. I thought that you could make an awesome video that covers this specific competitive dynamic or perhaps you could talk broadly about the theories that were put forth by the Harvard Business School professor: 🔥 Disruptive Innovation 📺 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKHOoHaQadt1ias (1 hour video) ⬆️ Standing at 6’8”, Clayton Christensen was the gentle giant of disruption. (Sadly, he died January 23, 2020) ...One of his great insights explains why it is the case that the incumbent managers (like the ones at the established automakers) act and execute on rational basis (with profits in mind) - yet, even with all the advantages - incumbents still fail to keep the disruptors at bay. Steven, thank you so much for your extremely valuable time. I look forward to seeing you again, in your next video.

As a transportation engineer for 50 years this is the best analysis I have seen. It is easy for people to dismiss the conclusions. But hard/impossible for people to disprove. Is there any other company that is prepared to implement this disruption as quickly and completely as Tesla? I don’t think so.

I disagee, as soon as the market shifts, I believe the big automakers are prepared and will act to quickly deploy their EV force that has been developed over thirty years. At this time, automakers are being required to deploy fuel burning engines to support the oil industry political force rather that the clean quiet products the market desires. This shut down proves how clean and quiet our neighborhoods can be! Go Tesla, their benchmark is totally stretching our vision!

[@gopalprabhu8512]

I agree with the sentiment that the other big automakers will try to overtake Tesla. I do however believe that the impending change in the value chain to where Uber and others will be at the top means that each auto manufacturer will need to create their own version of Uber or partner with an Uber. The number of new cars will go down but the total $/mile spent will go up. Whoever is not prepared for this will be a goner.

[@bruceburnworth8082]

MARILYNANDERSON88 Mmmmm. If you believe that the big auto makers are prepared to quickly deploy their EVs, I suggest you do more research into battery availability and software needed to perform the thermal management needed for long range, quick charging and long battery life. The big automakers have barely scratched the surface. VW CEO has admitted this in interviews and hopes to someday catch up with Tesla. The other big automakers are in a worse position.

@tzar 1917 Silly question to ask Roger... I can assure you his numbers are accurate.

[@hrthrhs]

And what about the previous week? Or this week now? Cherry picking weeks where there was unusual high wind or solar doesn't convince any intelligent person that we should be focusing on renewables instead of nuclear.

[@brunosmith6925]

@@hrthrhs The UK has not generated any power from coal-fired utilities for nearly 3 weeks. (Irrespective of why). In 2010, the UK was generating around 52% of power from coal. By mid 2019 this had dropped to 3%. Currently, it's now around 1.5%. Hinckley Point 2 (currently under construction) was estimated to cost £9bn when first mooted over a decade ago. When the project hit £22bn in October last year, the contractors pleaded to have another £2bn added to that. This crassly stupid project is unlikely to be ready for another five years, and will probably cost the British taxpayer north of £30bn - and it has yet to put a single electron into the grid. Nuclear has had its day. Solar and wind (plus battery storage) are already vastly cheaper (and increasingly so). My company is a supplier to Siemens and we supply certain items for their wind turbines. Right now, plans are underway to construct 12 new off-shore farms that (when built) will generate more power than Hinckley Point 2, and at around TEN PERCENT of the cost. For an idea on how battery storage complements the grid, and efficiency, look up the Hornsdale Project in South Australia - and watch Tony Seba's talk celebrating 2020 Earth Day again. Then... by all means come back and amuse us with your ignorance.

The presentation is great and the predictions will probably come true, but looking at vehicle numbers 2020-24 and global oil demand 2020-24 the predictions were rather off. 2023 global oil demand was fully recovered from the 2020 slump to 102 Mbpd not 90 (43:58), and trending upwards. US passenger vehicles were steady at 288 million and not 240 million (41:47). It may be a few more years still..

"EVOLET" The Future Is Electric.!!! "Nothing can stop an idea whose time has come". Responsibility is huge on OEMs. The way fwd for OEMs is multiple partnerships to localise, seeking to ensure that EVs become mainstream & affordable. Rissala welcomes the idea of working with partners on electric vehicle technology. Rissala strongly believes that OEMs need to come together to pool recourses & create a much better eco system for EVs in India. Its sensible to collaborate & co-create solutions to realise the eco dream. We need to be the game changers now that we are leading this fantastic change. Its effects are going to be un-imanagable for the country, its people & the world with every seventh human being on this planet being an Indian. Advantages to the country from the perspective of energy security & competitive advantage too, electric mobility will reduce oil import costs, lower trade deficits, & limit vulnerability to oil supply disruptions & process shocks, finally electric mobility will deliver a host of environment benefits , including cleaner air & savings of over 87 billion Usd/Yr. or 30,000 Crore per day from imports. OEMs have to work closely with specialised technology companies & power train technologies need to come from tech providers. Its a win - win for all. From ten Lacs (one million) barrels of oil use daily presently, your decision to shift to Electric mobility, its guaranteed to reduce to one Lac (100,000) barrels daily by 2025 & further to 10,000 barrels by 2030. Earth's healing has started. Mother Earth is Smiling!!! Thanks to the human spirit!!! Thanks to Indians shifting to Electric mobility. Three Cheers!!!! "It is not the strongest that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change." We have to be thankful to gods for being in these times & situation where such huge changes are warranted & in our hands as OEMs & with the government's extraordinary positive push in terms of policies, subsidies & support in all ways possible. "Evolet" = Happy, Sustainable, Affordable, Green mobility for each & everyone. Just like our ageless companion - The Horse. www.evoletindia.com

I watch one of your presentations every year at least. It helps me focus on the future, versus the past. I subscribe to an investment daily newsletter and the writer simply cannot fathom how the oil industry will head into decline. The demand destruction in March of 2020 was transitory of course, and will reverse partially with the pandemic winding down later this summer. But the trend will continue. The curve showing coal is really informative. Coal demand itself did not drop 99 percent in that time frame, but the value of investments did, because the margins of a business can profoundly affect valuation. That, too, will happen in the oil industry. Thank dog we got a president in the US now who is looking towards the future instead of doubling down on the past.

Coal is finished, unless no new mass uses are invented. Oil is in the slow down phase in developed places, but we see a little bit of an uptick in the developing nations. It will be a bumpy ride to the end for the oil industry. A bad industry to be on. Better bet on all things electrical !

Another question i have Tony, is that module costs for solar is so cheap now, at less than 30 cents per watt. However, the final consumer actually have to buy solar at USD3.00 per watt, due to soft costs and whatever crazy taxes that governments are taking. If only 30 cents out of USD3.00 per watt is falling at 14% , costs wont fall soo fast. is it really possible for cost per kwh to fall fast for solar?

[@AshS85]

Biggest costs is installation, lot of shady people getting in to solar right now and charging exorbitant amounts for installation while they have like 2 electricians on the payroll for a company w/ 100 installers.

[@heinuchung8680]

The idea will be to control the technology if you could control the means, I am not sure this will happen with solar though because it is getting so so cheap. Think cellphone bills over the years or texting. Now basically free, sadly it will not help the poor and those who rent. Landlords have no incentive to provide cheap power or energy efficiency.

The ultra high mileage EVs will spawn a whole new industry to improve and upgrade the exterior, interior and running gear of existing cars. The body shells, motors and batteries will continue but everything else can be reconditioned to like new. They will cost a fraction of brand new. It all depends on batteries at a low enough cost and of course the factories to make them in large enough numbers. Amazon announced it's vans from Rivian at least 12 months ago.

"Seba's Law" = Li-iOn Batteries curve at 15:00 mins in. Thumbs up all to approve. Please pin this to the top too. Anyway, I formally declare that the "Li-iOn Batteries" cost curve at around 15:00 be called "Seba's Law." I posted this proclamation just days after Tony's "Future of Transportation" video in January, but I am betting Tony is being too modest. For added measure, I even said the same on my KZbin videos so you can't hide Tony lol. So, let's all thumbs-up this comment to show Tony he deserves the credit for his hard work and being with other greats like Moore and Kryder (refer to his Transportation video from Jan 24, 2020 at around 7:10 where he compares the other "laws.") Meanwhile, since the lithium in the Li-iOn batteries is a low percentage and could someday be replaced by something different, maybe "Seba's Law" should = "Battery Technologies cost curve" or something similar. I'm going to keep reposting this until we give Tony the credit he deserves. Please help all.

Sir ! I am BIG fan of yours ! Request you to please make of a video of your latest report on food and agriculture as well ... To be honest, wanna pass it on to some lazy buggers, who hate reading ... lol

I think a winning combination would be solar on the roof with battery storage and the home owner is off the electricity grid but stays on the gas grid and uses gas to generate electricity, air heat and hot water with a gas powered turbine when needed especially in winter. Alternatively a micro-grid for a small neighbourhood could work.

[@salzen6283]

@ 35:57 was that Mr Seba cash register opening? money coming in from tesla shares dividends :)

[@danielstapler4315]

Negative oil prices are just a blip. People shouldn't get too excited. The price is 20$ a barrel for WTI 1st May 2020. My guess is we won't see negative oil prices again, ever. So be sure to add a "This didn't age well comment" if/when I'm wrong. That way I can find my way back to the video :-)

[@ramblerandy2397]

What I love about Tony Seba's analytical work is that he doesn't have hunches or make estimates. Historical data shows him the way and allows him to project forward with uncanny accuracy. Sure, he's occasionally 6 months to a year out in his projections. But those are on the side of caution. When other analysts [often working for legacy companies] are calling him a madman for even daring to project as he has. Yet he has been right all along, upto now.

Rivian didn't appear in 2021. Still just a handful so far in 2022. Will 100,000 vans on the road by 2024 be achievable ?

[@BF8425]

Hello Tony, enjoyed your presentation on this topic very interesting. Can you please address how all this demand on the electrical grid will be met? Will electricity prices surge? Why is China having rolling blackout issues currently & importing large amounts of coal. Thanks.

[@HowardFeinstein]

Fantastic, subscribed. Looking for more content on all things #tesla

[@SolarControlFilms]

Houston, Texas our commercial cost of transmission & demand is $.06 to $.08 per kWh. Cost of energy is only $.06; so our combined cost is $.12 per kWh in Houston. Can't wait to switch to rooftop solar. We have a 15,000 SF warehouse; so panels can not come fast enough.

[@mikumikuiyada]

Tony, is it logical for us to get an electric car at USD20k by 2025? i know the battery cost can fall by 15%, but not the body, not labor costs, not capital costs, not tires, which makes 2/3rd of the cost of car

[@rogerstarkey5390]

The costs you list are the same for any car, ICE or EV. The difference is only in the drivetrain, and that an EV carries it's energy store (battery). Very recent and exhaustive analysis had (again) confirmed that TCO for an EV is as low as 30 that for ICE. No contest.

Innovation is required. Think smaller and more simple car. Maybe a cybercommuter or a Model 2.

[@0ooTheMAXXoo0]

This year in Europe and China I am pretty sure there is a small SUV from a Chinese maker below $20,000. The mini EV is $29000 and still gets the $7500 tax incentive so that gets close. With an EV the battery is 2/3rds the cost of the car. Let's put it this way: at every price point that Tesla has a car, they are making cars at way cheaper cost than their competitors. So at $35,000 the tesla makes good margins while competing cars at the same price need repairs and parts to make a profit. So there is obviously a lot of room to make EVs cheaper than ICE cars apart from the cost of the battery pack since that is a big chunk of the Tesla car's cost and they can still get better margins than combustion vehicles can...

I'm starting to think TSLA stock might be pretty cheap at this time, he said only partially joking. Wonderful talk as usual, still stunning content! In many ways this is still secret knowledge ... but those who've seen this video are changing the world for the better in their own smaller ways as result of this information, maybe even subconsciously changing the world for the better.

[@mannygee005]

what I heard, "smart people in their smart organizations failing to grasp" the new technology in plain sight that will disrupt and probably destroy their market share their profit their business. If you're inside one of these organizations you might realize that they're not listening, not yet. For every decade they delay and ignore, well that's kinda their own fault.

How will we pay for roads?

[@Lankasurf]

51:26 I'm aware of 2.5 cent / kwh solar, how did you calculate the 0.5 cent / kwh for battery storage? (example: 1 kwh battery = 100$ : 5000 cycles = 2 cent / kwh). Thanks.

[@incognitotorpedo42]

Stationary batteries rarely do deep discharges, so they will probably last a lot more than 5k cycles.

[@Lankasurf]

@@incognitotorpedo42 True, but then you need a 5kwh hour battery instead of 1 kwh, if you are only using 20% of the capacity

IS solar cheaper than the oil-based sources IF YOU TAKE OUT THE SUBSIDIES?

[@Dave5843-d9m]

Car ownership took off extremely fast because it was far easier and far cheaper to own a car than a horse. Oil quickly overtook coal again because its easier to use and at the start was a lot cheaper. Mobile phones went to smart phones almost overnight because the costs to consumers were so low. Why have a Nokia boring brick when you can have this wonderful iPhone. Tesla cars are iPhones while ICE cars are the Nokia bricks, but £50,000 for a car even if its overall cheaper is a huge sum to find so the change will happen more slowly. We also have only one company that is serious enough to build a business and eco system to build and operate them.

[@Dave5843-d9m]

Autonomous car usage will be slack at night time so those cars will need space to wait for the next call and other will need to be cleaned and maintained. City parking will not vanish, though pay per hour parking will fall considerably.

[@billthebuilder1579]

The fleet will be smaller.

[@cedmaster2000]

[@Wookey.]

I'm not convinced that TaaS will work for campervans. They are very expensive and very rarely used, so it should do, but they are also highly personalised. It's currently much cheaper to keep the one I've got than rent one. Eagerly awaiting a 400 mile Rivian van to convert, because all the current vans do no more than 100 miles, which is painful for a camper. Except I'm in the UK, so who knows how long it'll be before I can get one.

[@campt91]

Also think of the implications for traffic stops from law enforcement. There will be a much smaller need for police because almost all the cars will be following traffic laws by default. And traffic stops take up a huge percentage of law enforcements time so forces will likely need to be reduced significantly.
