Inside Clean Energy: Here’s How Compressed Air Can Provide Long-Duration Energy Storage A grid that runs mostly on wind and solar, part of the future that clean energy advocates are working toward, will need lots of long-duration energy storage to get through the dark of night and cloudy or windless days. Hydrostor, a Canadian company, … Continue reading Inside Clean Energy: Here’s How Compressed Air Can Provide Long-Duration Energy Storage→
Emerging Issues in Energy Storage – Unlocking the Next Wave of the Energy Transition For how long will fossil fuel-generated electricity remain a critical part of our electrical systems? That is the question for those seeking to predict the pace of the global energy transition. For jurisdictions that do not benefit from extensive hydroelectric power … Continue reading Emerging Issues in Energy Storage – Unlocking the Next Wave of the #Energy Transition→
Salt breakthrough could halve the cost of storing solar energy One of the biggest difficulties with wind or solar energy is finding a good way to store it. Lithium-ion batteries are too expensive and need frequent replacing. Molten salt is a more efficient solution — but it tends to be better for storing heat rather … Continue reading #Salt breakthrough could halve the cost of storing solar energy→
