Energy storage: the key to a decarbonised future

Setec Powerr

We are transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, and the use of energy storage is becoming more widespread. This article will answer your confusion. And with the popularity of electric vehicles, the grid is under more and more pressure, so the demand for energy storage is growing.

How to Prevent Blackouts by Packetizing the Power Grid

Cars That Think

Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. The brown line shows the uncoordinated load from 1,000 electric water heaters for reference. Here’s what flexibility means when it comes to operating, say, a residential electric water heater.

Mattershift scales up CNT membranes; potential for zero-carbon fuels for less than fossil

Green Car Congress

Water flow through the membranes was 1000 times higher than predicted by Hagen-Poiseuille flow, in agreement with previous CNT membrane studies. An example of a simplified schematic for converting atmospheric carbon dioxide, water, and solar or wind electricity into ethanol, gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. Source: Mattershift.

Florida has no wind turbines but it’s going to ban them anyway

Baua Electric

Florida legislature is about to ban offshore wind turbines in state waters, which wouldn’t be put there to begin with, to protect the beaches. Excluding hurricanes, of course, Florida doesn’t have sufficient wind power, either onshore or offshore, that, say, states in the US Northeast or Texas have to sustain a wind power industry.
