The Next Energy Frontier: Neutrino Energy and the End of Storage Woes
Renewable energy sources, like the sun and wind, hold a tantalizing promise: an abundant, inexpensive alternative to traditional fossil fuels. Yet, this promise comes with a catch. The very nature of these resources is their inherent unpredictability. The sun, generous with its light, takes its daily rest, while the wind, ever capricious, waxes and wanes at its own whimsy. This intermittent flow of energy generates a complex puzzle that’s been the focal point of comprehensive research: How do we store surplus energy generated during periods of abundance for use in periods of scarcity? The conundrum of energy storage is a significant roadblock that has, thus far, kept renewable energy from entirely dethroning fossil fuels, despite the compelling economic advantage of the former.
