 | "How Blackouts Work" from Howstuffworks
Links to "Big Blackouts in US History" and says, "the power grid . . . cannot store any power" Includes US maps. |  | $Windpower-Energy Storage$
17 message thread compares costs for pumped hydro, and batteries, including Vanadium Redox; in context of storage for wind or solar. This is in response to questions about the viability of wind and solar generating systems without affordable bulk energy storage systems. However
it should be noted, windpower is already viable. It is limited however, to 10 to 20% of total electrical demand due to it's intermittant nature. As electric power transmission and distribution systems continue to grow and interconnect that figure may improve.
