This would turn out very interestingly, because Elon Musk enjoys a level of access to the US executive branch that other companies only dream of. The fury and retribution from POTUS would be terrible, if the company of his close friend was fined by his mortal enemies

Problem solved. We now produce more oil than anyone else. Germany isn’t going to get there. They can’t make nuclear at the national level and they can’t do wind at the state level. Leaves solar in a country with less insolation than New England.
