But the technology wasn t an immediate success. Another 40 years later the electric utilities were stable and profitable businesses.

because the utilities created other reasons to use electricity. They found a lot of uses for electric motors

#Tesla is driving the new Purpose Economy Tesla, the electric car company, is slowly reshaping how people think about driving.

Here s what Tesla is doing. The Purpose Economy is about more than just profits; it s about creating meaningful impact in service of people and the planet.

Spacex, and Tesla Motors. He has built successfully a number of companies, but more importantly, he has moved markets.

For this reason alone, Tesla would have to focus on the luxury end of the market.

Tesla s cars are designed and built for the Google or Apple executive. The Apple headquarters boast more Teslas than a Tesla showroom.

Early buyers were not price-sensitive and placed a premium on service and design. Tesla identified their innovator customer segment

and focused their energies on selling and servicing them in unique ways. For example, Tesla understood the busy schedules of their customers,

and had their service technicians visit owners for maintenance appointments rather than forcing them to sit waiting in a garage.

Tesla was reporting a profit, and the Model S had become the third best-selling luxury car, behind only the Mercedes E Class and BMW 5 Series.

and Google executives driving a Tesla, they want to be the first in their city and among their peer group to drive one.

Tesla has opened now showrooms around the world in affluent communities, moving beyond California and the innovators to the next segment of the adoption curve.

Tesla is building a network of car superchargers so that owners can drive coast-to-coast without range anxiety.

Tesla is covering the cost of the power for these stations. However, that is as far as Tesla has gone.

The next segment it needs to reach is the early majoritywho can move the company from a niche car manufacturer into a global powerhouse.

When compared to the early adopters, the early majority is pragmatic, less affluent, and more risk-averse.

Tesla is not going to be able to sell their current product to the early majority with much success;

Tesla won t succeed just by selling electric cars. They need to grow the overall electric vehicle market.

They need to remove barriers for their competitors so they can join them in moving away from gas-fueled cars.

To this end, Tesla now sells their patented powertrain components to competitors. They are concerned less about the competition taking up market share than building the market

Musk and his team at Tesla have accelerated actually the development of technology for the market.

Tesla s success has created further hope for electric cars and spurred investment in research and development. Musk s initial customers were largely in Silicon valley

These more risk-averse groups will need power stations all around them and ultimately it will need to be easier than owning a gas fueled car.

But if Musk sluxury cars for the tech-elite strategy works, it will ultimately allow Musk to sell electric-powered sedans and minivans to families in Ohio.

The vortexes aren't big enough to create electricity. But Michaud thinks that scaled up organized controlled atmospheric vortexes could help create

what he says will be the most favorable energy source on the planet by his estimates generating as much as 3000 times the electricity generated worldwide today.

***To understand how artificial tornadoes could generate electricity it helps to know how a tornado works in the natural world.

Power plants. In the models he's created so far he's used energy sources to heat up the air that is fed into the bottom of a vortex

either through electricity or by concentrating solar energy. But if he were to partner with power plants that initial energy investment wouldn't be necessary.

Power plants already generate waste energy via heat. An AVE would use the waste energy to begin

and maintain a vortex. Adding that capacity would increase output of the power plant by 10 to 20 percent without using any additional fuel Michaud theorizes.

And the vortexes that would result could rise a whopping 15 kilometers in the air (natural tornadoes have clocked in at almost 9 kilometers high.

By his reasoning the total energy potential of convection from the bottom of the atmosphere upward is 52000 terawatts.

which amounts to 6000 TW--3000 times the 2 terawatts of electrical power we make worldwide without his method.

Michaud argues that his method of energy generation is actually safer than most other electricity-generating methods like coal-fired power plants which are contributing to global warming

Once the project already in the works is completed they'll use the turbine to power a light bulb proving the electricity potential of the vortex.

He believes that his AVES have the potential to be a major electrical energy producer and one that will be cost-effective.

As for the idea of generating electric power from...vortexes; The whole article seems to be based on
