Stuart, so your 50% Scottish I knew I liked you, well half of you 😂 Yes the electricity business is in real flux just now with major changes to supply, infrastructure and how it is produced. Electricity from Wind farms is unpredictable and will therefore mean that there will be times of electricity abundance and times of scarcity. Battery storage gives the opportunity to help level out the grid but it also gives opportunities to make money. Reducing your daily use from your battery leaves you with excess energy to sell back at a profit. It’s crazy but will encourage more uptake in battery storage.
@Brydo, it’s only half but it’s something I’m proud of! No idea why though… 😁
As for the changing energy landscape, battery storage is the future as far as I can make out and yet again, as far as electrification is concerned, China are leading the way. Norway is impressive with what they’ve done but the scale of some of the projects in China are eye watering – they’ve also started installing sodium-ion battery storage which sounds an interesting development. It’s a time of great change, after over a 100 hundred years of burning fossil fuels
