Sounds great. Let's do that. We'll need electricity in winter too, though.

Yep, it won't replace batteries - it only solves part of the winter problem. But it solves that part very efficiently, and winter heating is a big part (at least, toward the poles it is).

I like to say that we need a series of half-solutions, instead of trying to create a perfect solution for everything all at once.
