Energy storage technology is seen as a way to help even out the imbalance in supply and demand by storing excess energy during periods of high production and using it when needed. Batteries have a powerful spigot, but that comes at the cost of a small tub. Getting a 100 percent decarbonized grid is nothing but an optimization problem.”—Matthew
