More than 300 megawatts of large, cargo container-sized sodium-beta batteries are running in the United States, Japan and Europe, according to Dupont Energy Consulting. They often store electricity generated by rows of solar panels and wind turbines. Electricity is generated when electrons flow between the battery’s electrodes.

A Sea-Monster-Proof Internet The initial segment of what will be the first underwater fiber-optic link to skirt the North Pole, connecting Japan and Europe, will light up in early 2023. As a bonus, the tech onboard the balloons runs on solar power. This stretch, called Iris, will link Iceland to Ireland.

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. 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. Why all the hype about hydrogen?
