When Will Energy Storage Become Mainstream? The 2030 Tipping Point

When Will Energy Storage Become Mainstream? The 2030 Tipping Point

the race to net zero emissions has turned energy storage into the Swiss Army knife of modern power systems. With renewables supplying 30% of global electricity as of Q1 2025[1], the real puzzle isn't generating clean energy, but storing it effectively. So when exactly will storage solutions become as commonplace as smartphones? The answer might surprise you. [2024-04-21 06:34]

Cement Gravity Energy Storage: The Future of Renewable Energy Backup?

You've probably heard about solar farms and lithium-ion batteries, but what if I told you the next big thing in renewable energy storage involves stacking cement blocks as high as skyscrapers? Cement gravity energy storage (CGES) is quietly reshaping how we think about storing clean energy. With global renewable capacity projected to double by 2030 according to the 2023 Global Energy Monitor report, the race is on to find storage solutions that won't break the grid - or the planet.
