Many states in the USA, and other countries, have grid-scale battery systems for hardening the grid against frequency fluctuations that can cause emergency generation disconnects. The national grid WILL transition from magnetic to inverter power generation, despite the stupid people's opinions.

A friend thought that's what happens when we told him we were going to do solar. You shoulda see the reaction on our faces, then his when we said "C'mon, you're smarter than that." We chose to stay connected to the grid, too, for night power. The goal is to reduce fossil fuels.

Wind energy does not need to be stored. Energy companies derive energy from a range of sources and switch between sources as they become available. California uses wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal and fossil fuels to generate electricity. The blend helps us get 7 hours/day clean statewide.

1/ Lithium-Ion Battery Farms (4–8 hrs) Fast, modular, and already everywhere. Ideal for short-duration smoothing Great with solar peaks Costs have dropped 80%+ Downsides? Fire risk, degradation, supply & mining impact
jul 26, 2025, 2:10 am • 16 1 • view
2/ Pumped Storage Hydropower (8–24+ hrs) Gravity is king. Water is pumped uphill when power is cheap, then released to generate electricity on demand. Includes: Classic dams, abandoned mines,... Efficiency: 70–85% Scales massively, best for multi-hour dispatch
jul 26, 2025, 2:10 am • 16 1 • view
3/ Hydrogen (24+ hrs / seasonal) Extreme-duration storage. Underground hydrogen = scalable, but low round-trip efficiency (~35%) Pumped into old salt caverns... Best for long gaps (cloudy winters, wind droughts), but not first-line tool.
jul 26, 2025, 2:10 am • 11 1 • view
4/ TL;DR: Batteries = fast & modular Pumped Hydro = massive & efficient H₂ = seasonal backup We don’t need one solution, we need the right mix, tailored to region, risk, and resilience.

Water heating at home and in industry could be done mostly when electrical power is abundant. Air compressors also could compress mostly when energy is cheap etc. some of these processes are less efficient, but are done anyway, but currently often not coupled to energy abundance / price.

the round trip efficiency of compressed air is much lower than other options, and air storage is expensive to build and maintain ergo limited volumes. But there was a proposal for offshore compressed air in lake energy storage on lake ontario. It died on vine
