The article is almost 2 years old and they have no idea what they were taking about back then
Modern batteries will last decades and after that they could be utilized elsewhere
Factory will completely recycle them if they ever get there
And frankly, even crashed (totaled) cars modules are getting snatched like hot cakes for number of applications
I personally got 3 modules for my golf cart
Awesome stuff, light years better than Lead-acid crap
And yes, i did order Powerwall 2. Good bargain compared to Generac + installation cost + maintenance
P.S. I got a good read for you:
