Richard R LeeThe #NYTimes remains so very clueless on everything #Energy. This piece on #batteries (#BESS, #LDES ..) is another example.
A few missing #facts to consider;
1/ The #NewGrid is an inter-connected network of batteries (including #residential & #communityenergy).
2/ Batteries charge during the day using #RenewableEnergy sources. They drain at night servicing the #grid.
3/ The #BaseloadParadigm is dead! The faster that we decommission the #OldGrid the better.
