Clearly wrong. Elon is is obviously very heavily invested in batteries. Batteries that require really destructive mining of rare earth minerals, and are not particularly efficient at storing energy. Batteries are nice for things like cell phones where we dont want to carry around a portable power plant for energy, but for large scale energy grid like homes and power plants, hydrogen electrolysis is clearly a better answer for storing the excess power produced by renewable sources.
