    there are loads of way to store energy that don’t involve batteries. pumped hydro is excellent, for example. but there’s also flywheels, thermal salt, and a dozen other ways.

    trust me, if we’d had a visionary in the white house instead of trump, we could have figured out some possible solutions to pursue.

    instead we’re gonna waste more than a decade playing fuckaround while china builds thorium reactors, fusion, high speed rail to mongolia etc
