The Future Of Energy Storage Beyond Lithium Ion
Over the past decade, prices for solar panels and wind farms have reached all-time lows. However, the price for lithium ion batteries, the leading energy storage technology, has remained too high. So researchers are exploring other alternatives, including flow batteries, thermal batteries, and gravity-based systems.
CORRECTION (March 14, 2020): At 12:53 we incorrectly identify the size of the energy storage market. Overall, the energy storage market is predicted to attract $620 billion dollars in investments by 2040.

Back to the same thing, solar doesn't work without sunlight, and if solar doesn't work, the battery won't charge. Bad project. I have a better idea.

THE TIME FOR WIND AND SOLAR IS CLOSING
As of today Green energy is in real jeopardy of loosing its credibility.
The public are becoming aware of the issues of having landfill made of green technology waist Wind farm blades today being cut up and placed in landfill Or Even worst ground up and added to wet concrete and solar is no better than wind for recycling.
Now other ideas are growing but are they good? Pump hydro requires 40% more power than is returned so the power bill rises.
Now i am not saying make more dams before those that know my tech far from it Just Make It More Efficient… My system is retrofittable to water and hydro dams to make more power from the same current flow rate. Now let me add 100yrs life and dam near 100% recyclable

So not only are we to destroy thousands of acres of vegetation and habitat for wind farms and solar panels, but also ANOTHER few thousand acres for the electrical storage.
BTW you will be lucky to have any reserve electricity to store from wind or solar. They already cannot keep up with normal power demands.

This panel can put out close to 100 watts https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxOqI2yqX0XVrhR2BMJciTWrHJpG8FhJyg when positioned in the appropriate southernly direction, tilted to the optimal angle for your latitude/date, and connected to a higher capacity device than a 500. The built in kickstand angle is a fixed at 50 degrees. Up to 20% more power can be output by selecting the actual date and latitude optimal angle.The 500 will only input 3.5A maximum at 18 volts for 63 watts. Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.

Green Energy in Fantasyland"
It is ALL a big lie.
The people promoting such preposterous agendas are oblivious to facts, engineering and science….and the gullible, uninformed, so called "educated" people eat it up without question.
In the future, this will be looked upon as the most ignorant time in history.
The politically corrupt likely have a stake in promoting this insanity…follow the money.

Nuclear power is the most energy dense source of power there is. It's zero emission, has a small footprint and it not weather dependant/it's available 24/7/365 and can power a modern industrialized economy.
Solar and wind are ugly and are not the future.

We are all energy. As long as we blink, walk, run and ride and brake we can generate and store energy that we can discharge while we relax. Make shoes that can generate energy! We open and close doors, drive or are driven e.g. Manual doors can produce power, the braking system of automobiles produces energy from inertia. The roads of the future will produce energy for nations because they will be equipped with devices that will be producing power from vessels rolling on them.

We could devise methods to use energy right away rather than store, by devising green houses, since about 35% of the earth is constantly too cold to be usable for plant growth!

Alternate chemistries really should be used for static applications. This would have a number of valuable side effects. 1) The materials used in these alternate batteries are often common and cheap. They include ZnBr, SbCa, Fe, V and the up and coming Na batteries, 2) Most of the alternative batteries have much longer lives than Li batteries. Their only disadvantage, I can see, is that they don't have quite the cycle efficiency of Li batteries. 3) Using alternative chemistries for static applications would decrease the demand for Li and bring the cost of Li batteries down and hence the cost of EVs, thus making EVs available to a wider range of people. 4) Using other chemistries would bring the price of these non-Li batteries down below the price of Li batteries. They use common cheap elements and all they need is production volume to achieve very low costs. 5) Most of these batteries based on elements other than Li can be cycled from 0% to 100% charge without damage and hence all the energy stored in the battery is available to you, unlike Li batteries. 6) most of the alternatives are safer in terms of fire. They can be shipped, even by plane and certainly by ship in containers with no risk. Most of them can be safely used in a house (basement for instance) or in a factory. With Li batteries, it is wise to use have them outside, just in case. Extra land does not always exist for a battery unit.

Вопрос в том, имеется ли будущее у силовой электроэнергетики, если не считать гидроэнергетику силовой электроэнергетикой, потому что генерация электроэнергии гидроэнергетикой зачастую не является силовой генерацией электроэнергии, и преимущественно носит электрическую мощность генерации до 1 Гигаватт, при этом, она неравномерная и носит сезонный характер. Будущее таких стран как Россия, это гидроэнергетика, поскольку реки России практически всегда полноводны, и к тому же, судоходны, это говорит о комплексном освоении гидроресурсов Россия, начиная с периода СССР.

The $9million battery pack in South Australia last 10 minutes and half the wind turbines don't spin South Australia suffers more black outs then any other state in Australia and now sourcing power from New South Wales 2 states Over to keep the power on from Coal fire stop spreading Lies this is a failed adventure

The saying is true to a point.
When the sun stops shining the wind usually keeps blowing 24/7 though …..
I have designed renewable power plants that will put coal and gas on the backburner….😎
The Chinese have just completed a compressed air power plant that is excellent…

Actually, more development should be placed on super conductors. Room temperature super conductors. Light weight, very powerful, and very durable.
Induce a magnetic field in a closed loop, and the magnetic field will be there until you open the loop, at which time electric current will flow. Many loops much current. The true future of energy storage.

This is really interesting. Hopefully someone can crack the puzzle of long term storage.
It will be.game changer for us all.
It could even prevent wars over resources.

Energy storage: Many utilities with access to a hydroelectric dam will pump water up into the reservoir when they have excess power. Don't get locked into thinking about only batteries.
@efrewferfefef3043
December 20, 2023 at 2:55 pm
Sorry, but I doesnt sound like we'll get large scale energy storage anytime soon. In the meantime, nuclear is probably the best option, at least for the next 30-50 years.
