One thought on “2022 Innovation Issue: Energy companies ramp up energy storage systems

  1. “Energy Vault” is a joke. Concrete generates a TON of CO2 (more precisely, 10 tons of concrete generates a ton of CO2). Their first shot at this plan emitted more CO2 than just burning Coal. They fixed the issue – now it’s only a little worse than Natural Gas…

    Don’t bet the farm on this tech to do anything useful to solve this problem. Compressed gas or pumped-water-storage is significantly better.
