Part 8/9:
The evolution of propulsion technologies offers valuable insights into the challenges ahead. The rise of steam engines, internal combustion engines, electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel technologies reflect society's shift toward cleaner energy solutions. Musk's emphasis on infrastructure parallels lessons learned from the transition to electric vehicles, where supporting infrastructure development emerged as a critical success factor.
The journey of sustainable propulsion technologies previously hindered by infrastructural deficits resonates today. Moving forward, Musk aims to leverage Tesla’s existing infrastructure for electric vehicles to minimize barriers to widespread adoption of the water engine.
