Maybe only having more educated people would make a difference.

True, but gotta see. Currently these companies are so minor.

Will Li-ion battery companies let that happen? They want profit, which means they want to keep the high battery cost.

Well Why do I love trolling this much..

Yeah, it is like that in some places. Also solar flux vary a lot by seasons as well. Dunno if wind has as much of an issue, but surely not great.

I am talking in the sense that the same companies are participating in fusion research, and pretty sure the methods you mentioned are utilized somewhat in nuclear plants. Like handling and filtering radioactive materials.

Imo batteries are like this since battery companies are quite greedy. They want some big cut out of the cost.

1. It's not easy to go over all options.
2. Many of these are largely theoretical, or for temporary storage. For instance, I don't think fluwheels can store energy for months.

Interesting, that was not what happened in my country. Sometimes it does take 8 years from allowance to finishing, but that's it.

Which options, can you specify?

How viable is pumped hydro? It would be good if feasible, but last I checked, there were not enough places where you can install them.

Well, I mean I was not thinking about USA..
