And third, while wind and solar-photovoltaic systems are great for the climate and are the fastest-growing sources of electric generation, the variability of their output begets new challenges for balancing the grid.

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy.

Barely one-third of a strand of hair in diameter, diatoms flourish in enormous numbers in oceans and other water sources. The latter could be thought of as a solar panel that converts photons to gasoline rather than electricity or heat. Choose diatoms that are thermophilic, especially for solar panels subject to solar heating.

While solar and wind provide carbon-free electricity or H 2 through water splitting, they lack the ability to directly produce carbon-based fuels and chemicals without additional carbon sources. By cycling carbon through energy generation systems as biomass, it offers a means to address climate change.

Europa, one of Jupiter's Galilean moons, has twice as much liquid water as Earth's oceans, if not more.
