Climate
Posts in this category are about Climate, which is generally defined as the meteorological conditions, including temperature, precipitation, and wind, that characteristically prevail in a particular region. Protecting the climate will require encouraging industry and land uses that minimize air pollution and rewarding landowners for practicing sustainable forestry and sustainable agriculture.

Is Distributed Thermal Storage Next?

Here’s one electricity storage technology that’s been around for over 20 years, under the radar, but might be due for a resurgence in interest with the addition of more wind power to the grid. Wind tends to blow at night when we don’t need it.
Steffes Electric Thermal Storage makes devices that store excess off-peak renewable electricity very simply, as heat, by heating up electric coils surrounded by ceramic bricks in a sealed container. The ceramic bricks are thermal sinks. They soak up the heat slowly, and when triggered to, can release that heat, just as slowly, providing low-cost heating.
Excess electricity generated can be stored at any time, like at night from excess wind power, and then released at any time it’s needed; on demand, in the form of heat.
Because it is useful for businesses and homeowners, it is distributed energy storage.
