Elon Musk wants more power—literally.
The man behind the race to replace gasoline-fueled cars with electric ones is worried about having enough juice.
In recent days he has reiterated those concerns, predicting U.S. consumption of electricity, driven in part by battery-powered vehicles, will triple by around 2045. That followed his saying earlier this month that he anticipates an electricity shortage in two years that could stunt the energy-hungry development of artificial intelligence.
