When we let politics trump science, people are needlessly put in harm's way. http://arstechnica.com/science/2017/01/self-censoring-fears...
Cool. This battery recently demonstrated that it works under real conditions. A coal-fired power plant failed. The battery reacted in milliseconds and picked up the load.
ReplyDeleteNuclear submarines have battery backup for the same reason, emergency power until you get primary power back online.
ReplyDeleteSo much of our current power grids is built around the concept that it is a slow, partly manual process to react to changes in demand or supply by bringing on new power sources or sinks or slowing/speeding existing power sources/sinks. I suspect that fast-acting automated sources/sinks like battery power reserves are going to rapidly dominate the grid power market and completely redefine how power management is done.
ReplyDeletethus good i hope Africa will benefit from such development.
