Elephants and trains in India, a self-recharging solar drone, captive-breeding zebra sharks, the hyenas of Harar, America's green bank and grid-scale battery boom, and more!
Lots of good stuff here! Referring back to an earlier conversation, I learned why the EIA counts battery storage as generation, separate from other sources like wind and solar. I had been thinking this was double counting. It’s because it can provide energy at peak when all other sources are also producing. It’s not just backup, which is how I was thinking of it.
Amazing.. those "starry sky" geckos! Just as interesting, the Brits with their hands-free microcopters-- just site and forget! I ❤️ Batteries and the grid scale batteries are wonderful to hear about! We are making progress on so many fronts, Sam! It's rather like dark matter and the acceleration of the universe's expansion at rates beyond the predictions of Newtonian mechanics. Our correlative expansion is that of human knowledge which is accelerating at a non-linear rate and is being employed to good ends. Is there any problem we can't surmount?
Assessing the CO2 emissions avoided at the rate of taxation of net CO2 necessary to get to net zero by 2050, what is the NPV of the projects financed by the US "Greenhous Gas Reductin Fund?" If it is less than zero, is this good news?
Love all this good news!! Thank you, Sam.
