Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.

​@just another human "no"? - How do you know? Let's atleast admit that we don't have a clue about how "hidden energy fields" work. As for now every single energy source humans have used have lead to environmental problems. I however believe in new reactors using nuclear waste as a primary energy source, in order to get rid of as much long lived waste as possible. In the longer run fusion mught be the best solution. It's better, but not totally "clean". To build machines that could harvest the energy from hidden energy fields might cost alot of money. In comparison; if nuclear fuel was free, it would only lower the cost of nuclear power with 10% or so.

Pumped hydro is one of the most efficient for long-term storage. Usually 80-90% efficiency. But the environmental toll can be large, if we can find good spaces for them (like mountains with low populations) this could be big for this tech.

Keep updating this information as new technologies become available. Don't stop!

One aspect not mentioned here is integration of the grid over long distances. Even if the sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't blow here, there are other places where they will. If you can distribute electricity over long distances, that also dampens the peaks and troughs, reducing the need for storage. This process is already ongoing in Europe.

Solar panels are typically guaranteed at about 80-90% efficiency after 20 years. Recycling is possible but the industry for it is still developing as far as I know.

Alternate chemistries really should be used for static applications. This would have a number of valuable side effects. 1) The materials used in these alternate batteries are often common and cheap. They include ZnBr, SbCa, Fe, V and the up and coming Na batteries, 2) Most of the alternative batteries have much longer lives than Li batteries. Their only disadvantage, I can see, is that they don't have quite the cycle efficiency of Li batteries. 3) Using alternative chemistries for static applications would decrease the demand for Li and bring the cost of Li batteries down and hence the cost of EVs, thus making EVs available to a wider range of people. 4) Using other chemistries would bring the price of these non-Li batteries down below the price of Li batteries. They use common cheap elements and all they need is production volume to achieve very low costs. 5) Most of these batteries based on elements other than Li can be cycled from 0% to 100% charge without damage and hence all the energy stored in the battery is available to you, unlike Li batteries. 6) most of the alternatives are safer in terms of fire. They can be shipped, even by plane and certainly by ship in containers with no risk. Most of them can be safely used in a house (basement for instance) or in a factory. With Li batteries, it is wise to use have them outside, just in case. Extra land does not always exist for a battery unit.

There's a reason why none of these alternative storage technologies have managed to displace lithium-ion battery: they all have some sort of tradeoff. In this video, flow batteries are said to be "Cost-competitive" with lithium-ion. In other words, they cost the same over the long term. If their lifespan is longer than lithium-ion, then that means a much higher up-front cost. But look at their density: ESS needs a whole shipping container just to store 400 kWh, many times more space than is required by lithium-ion solutions. In other words, it costs the same, but is worse. In order for alternative power storage to succeed, it is not enough to merely be as good, or as cheap. It must either be better, or cheaper, or both. None of the alternatives in this video have demonstrated that so far.

Pump hydro is all but reliable tech, granted. However, it's not as efficient as the stirage that will be needed in 2040 and beyond. The inefficiency comes from the cost. Its exoensive to build by MWh and expensive to run if you're buying electricity to oumo back up hill, even if you buy excess generation cheaply. It takes mote energy up to the top reservoir than it generates when water is released towards tha bottom resevoir. That makes the electricity generated more expensive than other sources. The only way hydrology generation is efficient and cheap is when you dam a strong running river and release water constantly. The generation virtually runs itself. A great example of that is URUGUAY.

Wake me up when I can buy one under 5k to store enough to go 3 days when there's a power outage

If you could buy one for 5k you would chop your powerlines off at your house so you dont have to pay a connection fee for nothing. If it's legal where you live.

@@julesmoore1170 Yeah, wake me up when they reply to my 'Request an offer' query (I'll try to have some faith, I just posted it now). I'm in the camp of off-grid customer where grid-tie isn't even an option. We need more consumer focused solutions in this space. Industrial solutions only keep alive more of the same culture of a big power company binding people to cloud power, and a monthly bill.

Chef's kiss. These technologies are wonderful and should have more money & resources put into their development.

I stumbled on this as I want my Narrow Boat totally off grid. A mate of mine thinks I am crazy to go away from 240 hook up. I have peak 500 watts solar. I can also invest In wind power as my winter mooring is well a bit windy. Plus can also charge off the boat engine alternater. Twelve volt. I am not too sure about LIFO battery yet I understand they don't like the cold. I think this video is brilliant, so many good ideas, but I guess it is back to Beta Max VHS again. Exciting times.

5:00 "Provides 25 kilowatts of power" I think this is a mistake because this isn't a measurement of capacity. I think you mean 25 kilowatt hours, but that's almost nothing, so I'm not really sure what you meant. Also as a side note those shipping container sized "Energy Warehouses" are only 400 kilowatt hours each. That's insanely tiny, equivalent to the batteries in 4 electric cars. From a battery the size of a shipping container, I would expect more.

25kW is not nothing, and "providing 25kW of power" is not talking about capacity, but the draw of power.

@@HSFY2012 Dude, he said 25KWh is almost nothing. And it is. That's about the amount of energy a persons eats in 10 days. Hornsdale Power Reserve looks to have 108 power banks, and stores 194MWh. That's almost a Megawatt of power per device. And since we're talking about energy storage devices, it's reasonable for OP to assume they were talking about capacity.

Chemical storage tech is millions of times less energy dense than uranium. Uranium is also already pre-charged by the universe. What drives these silly battery fantasies is subsidies and the criminalization of nuclear.

Yes. They confuse power (kW) with energy (kWh). This is high school level knowledge to separate the two... I'm disappointed and this gravely affects how I value this video and perhaps also other items by CNBC. They haven't even bothered to make correction about this in the video description...

I'd be skeptical if I were you. Ideas like Energy Vault's simply cannot work. A lot of these are just scams.

After thinking a bit longer, imo...All of the above! Location considerations expanded my view. All of the above 'IF' they are seamlessly linked together, yet maintain their individual integrity as a stand-alone company with contracts that provide locally first and foremost, and main grid tied to go out to the mass market. No MONOPOLY money for the uber power companies. Innovations come from a place of emotional attachment to an idea, and an iron will to get there if the reward has personal value in any form at the end of the challenge. An inventor that owns the results of failure vs success will endeavor to perfect the innovation, and as rapidly as possible Innovation, with defects can be 'purchased' but as with many careers, purchased inventors drag out the process 'till just before retirement.

Fantastic!!!

Good Video 👍

What about storing it as hydrogen? Small amounts of hydrogen can be stored in pressurized vessels, or solid metal hydrides or nanotubes can store hydrogen with a very high density. Very large amounts of hydrogen can be stored in constructed underground salt caverns of up to 500,000 cubic meters at 2,900 psi, which would mean about 100 GWh of stored electricity electricity.

Alot of energy loss, compared to pumped hydro or batteries. But if we are looking at a future of abundant electricity, Hydrogen isn't a bad idea, because it isn't geography dependent like pumped hydro

My fear is that we'll rush into solar and wind before the energy storage problem is solved. Tesla building LI batteries in South Australia seems to indicate it doesn't really have a real grasp on the situation.

What about the double helix type coiled copper interwined like that of a motor to generate propulsion, can that by its magnetism be utilized in wind turbine or umm a ways to create much kore energy into a storage based battery with elements included ib li ion like graphene, quartz, copper, and a liquid able type base for negative ion and positive ion disposition? When in use of that some type of battery
