@Nexpr @JWilliams We need bigger batteries. Any progress is good! All we need to know!!!
@JWilliams red some of it and dont get it, sorry
@Nexpr No problem. The story is about battery technology. Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are abundant, but not always reliable 24/7 (e.g. solar at night). So you need to store up extra energy to get you through the downtime.
This type of battery uses "reduction-oxidation flow", or "redox flow" technology. It's a new battery chemistry that offers long-term, reliable, and high density energy storage.
@JWilliams thanks!!! I get it now! invest!!! this sounds like a great idea!
@Nexpr This article describes research on new chemicals for use in this type of battery. They're looking for safe, stable stuff that won't require replacing frequently (reliable).
Hey thanks for breaking this out. Sounds cool. 👊
@JWilliams polyoxometalates?
Cool.
@JWilliams explain please.
