Convert Oil Wells to Solve the Solar Storage Problem

Cars That Think

Solar batteries work as a short-term solution, but not when it comes to long-term storage or to power, say, an entire city. Thermal energy storage is a known low-cost, low-risk approach for storing solar energy in the form of heat,” adds Codd. A possible answer, though, might lie in oil wells. to test the concept for the first time.

Hydrogen Battery "Sponges" Store Solar for the Grid

Cars That Think

A novel project in Australia aims to harness the sun’s energy in two different ways: by storing it and by using it to produce green hydrogen. Operators can use the systems to store energy from solar panels and deliver power to the grid during cloudy days or at night. At least that’s the vision Alan Yu and his partners share.

Arizona State University Professor’s Work to Stabilize the Grid Pays Off

Cars That Think

Whenever new technologies are introduced into the power grid, there’s always a chance they could disrupt the system, possibly even leading to blackouts. He is a professor of power systems engineering in the Fulton program at Arizona State University , in Tempe. The report recommended ways to characterize and define the problem.
