Raising the penetration of renewable —an intermittent—sources of energy into the grid will require large scale electrical energy storage and retrieval. Electroactive microbes enable replacing biological light harvesting with photovoltaics. The approach shows a lot of promise for making biofuels at higher efficiencies.
