Energy is going to be seriously disrupted over the next two decades. Distributed solutions remains my favourite to do so.

Dan Nocera was talking to the converted when I watched his fantastic video via Infectious Greed. Efficiency doesn’t matter as I discovered last week when researching photosynthesis. What matters is cost. Cost falls as production scale increases. Fantastic video, nothing makes me happier than solutions found based on nature.

While Nocera’s enthusiasm in infectious, by the way he goes on you’d think he’d solved the entire energy puzzle, rather than providing a possible solution for one part of a possible part solution. We need to capture energy, convert it for storage (which is Nocera’s bit), store it and then convert it for consumption. I wonder who is working on hydrogen storage?
