Status Updates From Sustainable Energy - withou...

Vanadium flow batteries -redox, very efficient, can be charged at the same rate they are discharged, no current long-term shortage of vanadium.
Long term thermal storage can help wirh fluctuatuons in climate (e.g. examples of summer heat stored in aquifers)

demand management using electric vehicles: essentially turning on and off chargers as resources like wind or solar as accessible

the use of pumped storage facilities (e.g. using the transfer of gpe to ke) to help solve the problem of lulls in energy production

discusses lulls in renewable energy productiom and how to cope wirh slew rate (rate at which delivered power rises or falls)

it talked abt setting up renewables in kther countries, largelt the desertec plan which uses voncentrating solar power and HVDC transmission lines to deliver power to cloudier areas of the world from the mediterranean
