Jesse Peltan is discussing the US and China's energy landscape, highlighting China's rapid growth in solar energy. China now generates more electricity from solar than the US and India, with its solar capacity doubling every two years. The US is being left behind, with Peltan suggesting that America's inaction and regulatory hurdles are hindering its ability to compete in the global energy market.

"Grid scale battery storage is not "battery backup." Batteries are active assets that improve the utilization of other parts of the grid. An hour of battery storage at the level of a few percent of peak demand can provide ancillary services that free up thermal generation to serve load. A few hours of battery storage at the level of tens of percent can smooth out demand improve thermal generation utilization and improve T&D utilization. (peak shaving) Colocated battery storage with solar or wind lets you put more renewable generation on the same grid connection. A solar farm typically averages"

"We use about 1/8th as much silicon to make a watt of solar panels as we did [--] years ago. Consequently energy payback is about 5x faster. (there are energy costs other than silicon) Modern panels use so little energy to manufacture that they could be in the shade most of their life and still generate multiples of the energy it took to produce and install them. Solar panels provide both energy production and distribution. In a centralized system energy production provides a positive return on energy but distribution is only a cost. With solar you get to make panels with cheap industrial energy"

"A lot of people say we don't need more energy. We can simply use less and be more efficient. The 6.3x difference in GDP/kWh between Ireland and Qatar seems to support that until you notice: - Ireland's energy use per capita is still 1.7x the global average - Ireland is a tax haven - Qatar's GDP comes from exporting energy intensive products like petrochemicals - to places like Ireland Efficiency does matter. Efficiency is a multiplier on energy. But we will never create a world of abundance without greatly expanding our energy supply. Yup useful energy output is the foundation of the economy"

Jesse Peltan is discussing the US and China's energy landscape, highlighting China's rapid growth in solar energy. China now generates more electricity from solar than the US and India, with its solar capacity doubling every two years. The US is being left behind, with Peltan suggesting that America's inaction and regulatory hurdles are hindering its ability to compete in the global energy market.

"Grid scale battery storage is not "battery backup." Batteries are active assets that improve the utilization of other parts of the grid. An hour of battery storage at the level of a few percent of peak demand can provide ancillary services that free up thermal generation to serve load. A few hours of battery storage at the level of tens of percent can smooth out demand improve thermal generation utilization and improve T&D utilization. (peak shaving) Colocated battery storage with solar or wind lets you put more renewable generation on the same grid connection. A solar farm typically averages"
