        @azeem @counternotions @mims The question is less about energy demand growth, and more how fast we'll switch to solar.

        @azeem @counternotions @mims Solar growth has been exponential: http://bit.ly/1ImYaw7  But likely slowing somewhat in % rate..

        @ramez @mims I love it when tech stuff whose highly dependent demand elasticity can be plotted out neatly 20 years into the future.

        @counternotions @mims :) Predictions vs time are far harder than predictions vs scale. Still, many caveats apply.
