We need to bridge the gap between when #energy is generated and when it is consumed. We need a solution that makes our #energygrids more resilient and allows us to store summer’s sun for winter’s chill. Without massive-scale storage, the green transition stalls 👇

A document of just under 30 pages long has the potential to save thousands of #customers from having to buy new speakers. This reduces the need for new #resources, cuts #emissions in the supply chain and may save more #greenhousegases than reforestation projects or the use of recycled materials 🙌

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.
