With recent and projected cost declines in wind, solar, and lithium-ion batteries, electrification using batteries has become a viable option for applications compatible with the inherent range limitations and recharging time. The technical potential of wind and solar energy is vast, and such fuels are scalable beyond foreseeable needs.
