Everything They Tell You About Solar Is Wrong - Travis Bradford [View article]
Great article. Yup, alot of people don't understand that solar is not going to end up on people's rooftops. Instead, companies like PG&E will be building out solar and attaching it to the grid (as they announced today).
And you could certainly store solar engery or any energy for that matter in a battery or flywheel. What you are storing is a different form of energy of course (whether that be in the form of heat, battery, etc.) So I think people are just splitting hairs on that subject. You are able to store energy which was originally produced from solar but the stored form is not solar.
Lastly, yes, Solar is happening. Lots of great articles out there on its potential as a local energy source which frees us from the geo-political factors around oil.
