IEEE can also provide resources to its members so they can give talks to local schools about topics such as coal-burning power plants or solar energy. If you use less electricity, you will burn less coal. You cannot make wind and solar energy useful throughout the day unless you can store it. It’s as simple as that.

The UK has been a leader in deploying on and offshore wind turbines. What we have not done so well is to ensure that we have a solid base level of generation to supply electricity when there is no sun and no wind.

Hydrogen is the most abundant chemical substance in the universe, constituting roughly 75% of all normal matter. Most of today’s hydrogen use is grey; Blue: during the steam reforming process, a high proportion of carbon generated is captured and stored underground. This is classified as carbon free hydrogen.

Clueless ministers are scrambling to shore up a key part of the country’s net zero carbon strategy after the findings in a peer-reviewed study suggested that even hydrogen produced using allegedly low-emission methods can be more polluting than gas or coal. Hydrogen can also be generated by electrolysis of water.

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.

The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. The fire station, barber shop, and several grocery stores are all powered by solar energy.

In a hangar at the University of Edinburgh, a triangular steel contraption sits beside a giant tank of water.
