Worried about the future of energy on Earth? Don’t worry, we’ve got it all figured out!

It’s the third example of Musk’s “Master Plan,” Tesla’s long-term strategy, which Musk first began posting in 2006.(opens in new tab).

Here, it’s worth pausing to point out that while the first part of the master plan worked more or less as Musk envisioned, the second part lags badly. We do sell it, but not enough to have a significant impact on the US energy production environment. Tesla cars also have self-driving capabilities, but they are still far from being able to drive safely on their own. The final part of Musk’s second master plan would allow Tesla cars to make money for their owners by acting as robot taxis, subject to self-driving and regulatory approval. and at the moment it seems a few years away at most.
