Solar batteries work as a short-term solution, but not when it comes to long-term storage or to power, say, an entire city. Solar energy is a low-power-density resource, meaning relatively large areas are needed to collect and convert sunlight, Daniel Codd points out. One of the main impediments to harnessing solar energy is storage.
