Battery Surge on Our Side with Climate Change

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

Ten years ago we recall green energy denialists saying wind and solar could never replace fossil and nuclear. That was because they could not imagine electricity generation without large, base load power stations. The battery surge and fresh imagination have put paid to all that. We just need the will and determination to see the conversion through.

Is the Battery Surge the Fastest-Growing Industrial Sector

The Good Men Project believes the battery surge is the fastest trend on the planet. They welcome it in terms of how they believe 21st century man should behave, this includes being environmentally friendly.

They speak with excitement regarding the $ billions going into battery storage research and how this sweeps old arguments aside. Furthermore they dismiss the alleged need to keep building fossil fuel and nuclear power stations. We already see batteries as large as houses on electricity networks where AI brings them on line in nano seconds. We are excited to be alive in these thrilling times.

Battery prices will fall 50% over the next ten years as US$600 billion goes into large-scale storage batteries. “The generally-held belief there was no way to store electricity has been disproved,” Climate News Network says. “The battery surge means it is now just a question of finding the easiest and most economic way of doing it.”

The factors causing climate change are on the back foot as the search successfully continues for green energy alternatives. Vanadium flow batteries are making huge inroads into the need for extra energy during peak demand. The case is also stronger for business people and homeowners to sell their green electricity when they are away or asleep.

The key battle has been about price since practical experience proved green energy works. Surely there would be nothing holding us back now were it not for a cautious approach in the energy industry.

About Author

Electricity has always intrigued me. I have been writing about batteries and energy storage for more than ten years, and have published over 4,000 articles on this website. During that time, I have researched developments across lead-acid, lithium-ion, sodium-ion, flow batteries, and emerging energy-storage technologies. My goal is to explain complex battery concepts in clear, practical language that anyone can understand. My writing career began unexpectedly after leaving the corporate world. What started as a search for a new direction gradually became a fascination with batteries, renewable energy, and the science that powers modern life. Writing may not have made me wealthy, but it has given me the opportunity to explore an industry that continues to evolve in remarkable ways.
