Batteries have their limitations. Far too small capability for utility companies to use. And there's plenty of limitations & problems for car batteries. Nissan Leaf is suffering problems of deteriorating batteries, cutting range. And there's been financial problems with car battery manufacturers. We've already mentioned the high costs of Prius batteries. And so far there's been no batteries capable of powering large freight carrying trucks.
Here's 0ne quote relating to power plants: < "To replace the 440 MW of U.S. generation expected to be retired over the next 25 years would take 29.3 billion solar PV panels and 4.4 million battery modules. . . . The study by two UK professors also mentions problems with wind ( & other green sources) < " Meeting 8% of the U.K.’s real energy needs would require having to build 44,000 offshore wind turbines. Doing this, would fill the entire 2,000 mile U.K. coastline with a strip about 2.5 miles wide. . . . |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: In one word, the problem is intermittency. As batteries become cheaper and more efficient, excess energy can be stored for future use. I thought Tesla built a huge battery facility in Australia. |
