Since the advent of energy sources, like solar and wind, that are not always available the trend is to place batteries in an electricity system. The energy is stored when it is plentiful and used when it is needed. For some reason, no one thought about doing that before.
Let’s discuss what the battery revolution will do for us. Will it save the planet? Will it lead humanity to an era of abundance of energy? In 15 years maybe we will not know what to do with all the surplus energy.
The secret sauce is batteries. Not just the ones we all know about but also lakes, towers with concrete blocks, molten salt, and many more.
Come and talk about our energy future! Bring your kids, they are the ones who will live in the new world.
