I've watched enough videos about renewable energy to know that one of the biggest issues with increasing our use of renewables isn't necessarily the actual energy production but rather the storage of the energy from times when it's produced to times when it's needed.
There's lithium ion storage batteries...3:15-4:05...
...flow batteries...4:10-7:50...
...pumped hydroelectric...8:15-8:40...
...energy vault (the most entertaining storage method if you ask me)...8:40-10:15...
...thermal storage...10:20-11:40...
...compressed air...11:50-12:00...
...cryogenic storage...12:00-12:15
Oh, and I absolutely love the joke at 1:28...energy storage methods all have 'serious potential'...
See, because stored energy is potential...it's funny.
