2021 was a big year for energy-related news, what with the ongoing hunt for new forms of energy storage and cleaner if not carbon-free electricity and events and research that spotlighted the weak links in our power grid. This article, by researchers at PARC and the University of Washington, is one possible answer.

Thousands of Washington insiders and climate activists have had a hand in these legislative breakthroughs. Among the most articulate and almost certainly the wonkiest is Jesse Jenkins , a professor of engineering at Princeton University, where he heads the ZERO Lab—the Zero-carbon Energy systems Research and Optimization Laboratory, that is.

Another concern associated with EVs is that they could increase emissions of criteria pollutants like SO 2 and NO x because power plants are believed to be the largest contributor to China’s SO 2. Generation mix of the six interprovincial power grids in 2008. Article ASAP doi: 10.1021/es100520c. and NO x emissions.

Many countries have met their climate goals and are on track to be completely carbon neutral. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Imagine this hopeful, and not impossible, energy scenario for the year 2040.
