Untill the NEXT renewables incentives are launched(if ever?), then things will stagnate.
The momentum needs to keep going.

Yep still exists. Day rate 13.9 p Night rate 7.5pI assume your thinking back to the "economy 7" days.
Neat idea, but I can see a lot of bored anti-wind campaigners relishing new 120m structures to object to.Here is another way to do it

The real problem is the sources of Lithium and Chromium. The demand for vehicle batteries is going to be vast, cars are bad enough but what about lorries?Battery development is on a very steep upward curve, with power doubling and size reducing about every 20 years. New battery power such as solid state and lithium - oxygen will increase the capacity x 10. The science exists and developers are struggling to ensure we have a stable generator that is not a bomb
However. we are at the stoneage end of battery development at the moment, exiting times ahead.
Probably best to post this in the machinery threadcan anyone suggest me a good car battery company?
Something I've been pondering on is using worn out ev battery packs as domestic battery storage as a second life for them. The loads required in the domestic situation are only a fraction of that needed in ev situation. Trouble is I don't know in what manner ev packs deteriorate.@Zetor :
One of the things that the installers we used were discussing was that as electric cars become more prevalent, the technology is already available so that when you plug you electric car into your house to charge, that battery capacity can then become part of the load available to run your house. Even the smallest electric car has a 30KWH battery so that will be more than enough to run the house for a while. The assumption is then that you only draw a heavy load on your house when your home (and hence a car is there) so you only need to have a small battery to run the equipment that in your house that is left on when you (and your car's battery) are not.
