Challenges in expanding renewable energy expansion-
"Building the level of renewable generation and storage necessary to reach the state’s goals would drive up costs exponentially, from $49 per megawatt-hour of generation at 50 percent to $1,612 at 100 percent.
And that's assuming lithium-ion batteries will cost roughly a third what they do now."

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Ok, your post sounds a bit too generalized. So I read the article cited. I'm sure you were just sparking some interest. You did. I agree with ToolGuy, we need to look at alternatives for batteries. DC was virtually abandoned years ago, for practical power needs and for transmission requirements. Maybe someone will make improvements on batteries but I doubt it. DC with batteries has its uses but as an alternative at the scale we need it's not likely. ToolGuy is right we need to look else where.
