Home batteries ARE the future. We will see many energy companies go out of business in the next 40 years.
They will put up a huge fight though.

Come up with an idea that investors like or put billions of your own money into that idea?

looks pretty damn good to me...once they work out some reasonable storage battery technology, this may start to become a feasible alternative to fossil fuels.

Game Changer.
Good looking solar panels. I remember my grandpa (a Petroleum engineer with concentration in polymers)
telling me ten years ago a company in Austin was working on this.

That's a ballpark figure for what an average household would consume daily I believe. A little bit higher for a two-story.

A kilowatt hour is 1000 watts used in an hour. If you ran a Microwave for one hour you would consume 1Kwh 14Kwh is an average consumption for a home.
