Energy storage, essential for photovoltaics and wind power, is a solved problem

There are thousands of extraordinarily good pumped hydro storage sites around the world with an extraordinarily low investment cost. When combined with batteries, the resulting hybrid system has large energy storage, low cost for both energy and power, and fast response. Storage is a solved problem. In 2023, twice as much solar generation capacity was … Continue reading Energy storage, essential for photovoltaics and wind power, is a solved problem
