What are the TeraTrends?
Tera is the shorthand for 10 to the power of 12, or one trillion. TeraTrends is the exploration of a series of exponentially accelerating technological trends that will begin to converge in the 2020s. These trends will lead to advances in autonomous and electric vehicles, urban mobility, solar PV and battery storage, along with the technology required to support all of those industries. The convergence of all of these advances will lead to the reshaping of American cities and create widespread social benefits and unparalleled economic prosperity.
