Pretty sure Solar is a big part of energy generation in Space related stuff.

So I can obviously see the self dealing side… but there is also an equally “it just made sense” side. Do billionaires need to self enrich with crazy side deals?

Solar city had nothing to do with space solar, and if they did bonds don't give access to the tech anyway. It was residential (contracted?) install and financialization of the deal and payback terms.
