    Grid scale batteries allow for better security by distributing storage across the network and lets us store renewable energy from peak hours.

    Cheap grid storage will be a game changer

      And it mitigates the current red herring of the anti-solar groups complaining that solar “generates too much electricity during the day, and not enough at night”.

      With an effective and balanced grid storage system across the country, we can recharge the batteries during the day and then use the power at night.

        I can only hope that the anti solar groups are arguing in bad faith when they complain about how the sun works.

        Either that or: they actually think that pro solar doesn’t understand this fact or one of the two groups doesn’t know how to pair solar with batteries.
