Renewable energy – solar panels and wind turbines – have become staggeringly cheap in recent years, beating fossil fuels on price. Great news for the economy, energy security, and combatting climate change. But there’s a catch. What do you do when the wind’s not blowing or the sun’s not shining? Now, though, the final piece of the puzzle is here like never before: batteries. Batteries have seen their price absolutely crash. And that’s unlocking round-the-clock renewable energy that’s cheaper than burning fossil fuels. Given the fuel crisis triggered by the war on Iran, this couldn’t come at a more crucial moment.
