    • Calculating the True Carbon Footprint of a Renewable Energy Grid

      Scientists have developed a new way to calculate the carbon footprint of batteries needed to store wind and solar power for the electrical grid. A key problem is that the US electrical grid has virtually no storage capacity, so grid operators can’t stockpile surplus clean energy and deliver it at night, or when the wind isn’t blowing.To provide more flexibility in managing the grid, researchers have begun developing new batteries and other large-scale storage devices.
