Also I can see us using a mix. Solar is becoming more and more efficient per panel so a future where new houses are decked in the Tesla-style roofing helping to reduce the energy required per-house from the grid and other measures to reduce the energy used.
A combination of designing things to use less energy, to recapture the energy that we do use (such as breaking in electric cars) and to capture more in smaller amounts from elsewhere (solar) can all help reduce the work of the grid.

Considering the Powerwall battery alone is £5,900 what's the roof going to cost?
