When it comes to green energy, the intermittent nature of renewable sources like wind, solar, and tidal power presents a difficult problem for the electrical grid management. Peak energy production often doesn’t correlate well with peak energy demand, necessitating a means of storing excess energy when consumption is low.
Money spent on investment into grid scale energy storage will carry more weight than money spent in better renewable energy technologies.
