correctMeh....I dont even know you so I guess I'll never know what I lost.
rest well in the thought that I dont need any info from you Jr.correct
I wont offer any. You couldn't process it.rest well in the thought that I dont need any info from you Jr.

No, we run it on solar, wind, water and fill in the blanks with small nuclear.We cannot run this country on batteries.
So are you with your dildo.
They are having to turn to battery power because of their failed energy policies, and not being connected to the national grid.
Heat is battering Texas’s power grid. Are giant batteries the answer?
The worst may be yet to come, with extreme weather forecast to persist into next weekend
The outsize role battery storage is playing in keeping the power on is welcome news to clean energy companies, which have been fighting the fossil fuel lobby’s efforts to place blame for the state’s electricity woes on the increasing share of renewables in its energy mix.
Battery storage is a boon to wind and solar, as it allows them to capture and store the energy created at times when it may not be needed and then make it available to ratepayers at peak hours.
But amid this heat emergency, batteries have also proved useful in bailing out more traditional power plants.
When a large coal facility got knocked offline during peak hours this week amid the stress of the extreme heat, energy that was being stored in batteries elsewhere in Texas was quickly dispatched to carry the grid through the evening. The batteries were also crucial to keeping the power on when a nuclear plant hiccuped and went offline earlier in the week, said Doug Lewin, a Texas energy consultant.

That's obviously, (to thinking humans), unworkable. There simply isn't enough open land available across much of the country for solar and wind farms. Both of those forms of energy are unreliable for consistent power generation.No, we run it on solar, wind, water and fill in the blanks with small nuclear.
Batteries are not clean energy....not in the least. But they are always a good idea. Remember that they are chemically toxic and can easily create environmental havoc.

Right now nuclear is the best option. A hybrid steam plant using both nuclear and parabolic solar to generate steam would be very interesting. Hell....they could incorporate all three technologies....nuke,wind and Solar...in the same place to extend the life of the reactor rods without generating so much as an ounce of Co2You have it backwards.
We should run on nuclear and we wouldn't need wind solar or batteries.
If we upgrade to integral fast reactors we can use the nuclear 'waste" from out old obsolete light water reactors to power the entire country for 200 years or more.Right now nuclear is the best option.

Yes there are many more options that we can explore. However the current system depends on controlling profit margins for the corporate vultures.If we upgrade to integral fast reactors we can use the nuclear 'waste" from out old obsolete light water reactors to power the entire country for 200 years or more.
Of course there is. There are also floating solar farms in lakes and the Gulf.There simply isn't enough open land available across much of the country for solar and wind farms.
They don't need to be. Look up sodium and zinc batteries.Remember that they are chemically toxic and can easily create environmental havoc.
One simple design I like is the salt block. Heat is stored in it during the day in a specialized insulated container. Up to one ton each and capable of reaching 1300f....I read somewhere.They don't need to be. Look up sodium and zinc batteries.
