'Major discovery' from MIT primed to unleash solar revolution
 
#13
The thing is that this is not so much a solar power revolution as much as it is an ENERGY STORAGE REVOLUTION, thank you.

You can easily apply this in the form of a large-scale electrolosys plant in the middle of a wind farm and WHA-BAM! Now ya don't gotta wait for the
wind-gods to be gratious enough to supply ample wind for your peak power consumption periods. Oh, and how about those off-days when the wind just doesn't
blow that much? This is way beyond just mere solor power. You can apply this to any major or minor power system in whatever form you wish. Why? Because
hydrogen is a beautiful element in that it is just that fucking useful. Burn it in your car. Converted it into electricity. Hell, you can even use it as
cryogenic coolant in a super-conductive power-transmission system, and at the end of the line it can still be used as fuel!

Anymore naysayers?
