A good article I ran across this weekend from Renew Economy …. https://reneweconomy.com.au/us-energy-giant-says-renewables-and-batteries-beat-coal-gas-and-nukes-78962/amp/?__twitter_impression=true ….Cowboy
Cowboy, good article and I would think that Duke Energy would be not far behind in seconding. I disagree with Nextera Robo saying that renewables will only good for about 75% of the market do to battery size. The renewables market is still young and I recently read an article that said the ITC incentives should continue for R&D in the market. Batteries will continue to gain in capacity and life cycle, there are new technology batteries just coming to market and others in R&D not far behind.
I agree Griffin. There are announcements everyday about new solar farms big and small. These batteries will continue improve as time goes on. We were a little early to the party but I am patient, and believe these stocks will come around. I’ve been busy with work and haven’t had a chance to add much here lately. I read all you posts, so thanks for that. Sometimes I think its just you and me here ! …Cowboy

Lithium battery makers are including ALL types of batteries in their stories about fires, when clearly vanadium and Zinc flow batteries are not to blame. Interesting politics at work.
Interesting, I wonder how much is politics and how much might be StorEn Technologies (posted above) solution for putting flow batteries on the grid. I didn’t even think there was a problem with flow batteries on the grid, what with the huge battery being built in China, but StorEn seems to have a solution and Li-ion could lose market share rapidly. The battery for storage market seems to be moving, finance, incentives, cost, technology, are all going in the right direction.
