When Will Solar Get Cheap?

Solar is not like other energy sources. Photovoltaic cells are a transformative technology, Alexis Madrigal, The Atlantic’s senior technology editor, argues in the short video above.

Animated by Lindsey Testolin, this clip is part of a six-part video series in The User’s Guide to Energy special report.
