$FYI – A California Utility Just Bought a Record Amount of Battery Storage

“The new round of projects the SCE is buying will change the face of battery storage in the U.S. California leads the nation in battery storage, but this will triple the storage capacity the state had as of March 2019. The storage projects are also larger than the 523 megawatts of storage deployed across the U.S. in 2019. ”

$FYI – Cheap Renewable Energy a Step Closer As Next-Generation Solar Cells Pass Strict International Tests

“However, the energy conversion rate of silicon in solar panels is close to reaching its natural limits. So, scientists have been exploring new materials that can be stacked on top of silicon in order to improve energy conversion rates. One of the most promising materials to date is a metal halide perovskite, which may even outperform silicon on its own.”

$MGXRF/$MGXMF New zinc-air battery is ‘cheaper, safer and far longer-lasting than lithium-ion’

“Our market is eight hours [of storage] and above,” MacDonald tells Recharge. “And the reason is that as you increase your storage capacity — the overall cost of the system continues to go down very significantly.”

Thanks Griffin, I sure hope lithium has bottomed. I’m down 97% on $MGXMF. However, I found this statement online which is very discouraging.

“To put that into perspective, Argentina has enough lithium reserves to meet global demand for about 300 years, according to Financial Post.”

MGXMF was tryng to cover too many projects. The smartness thing they’ve done is to spin off MGXRF, MGX renewables. Both MGX stocks have hit bottom but renewables seems to be coming bac sooner, I dumped most of my MGXMF and bought MGXRF. Argentina does have a huge reserve of Lithium most of of it is in brine. MGXMF you would think would a huge position in the mining of the Lithium since their machines are portable and separate Lithium from brine. MGX does now have some competition but I haven;t really read anything any of them make any big deals in Argintina.
