So few ppl understand Musk, but his real claim to fame is NOT simple engineering. It is Industrial engineering. In all aspects he is looking at the economics of how this works. For example, SpaceX F9 is mostly cheap because of 10 engines all the same. In addition, how their bell is manufactured is a fraction of what other's costs.
Tesla is the same way.
And solar city will be either buying an American solar panel company, OR will build their own in the states, within 2 years.
