They often store electricity generated by rows of solar panels and wind turbines. Running at lower temperatures can make a big difference for sodium-beta batteries and may enable batteries to store more renewable energy and strengthen the power grid. —Xiaochuan Lu, lead author.

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. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.

Rahman cited the Eemshaven ultrasupercritical plant , in Groningen, Netherlands—which was built in 2014. Another efficient option he pointed out is the combined cycle power plant. But, he said, without nuclear power, the concept of becoming carbon neutral by 2050 isn’t realistic. The United States buys power from Canada.
