IU.S. battery storage capacity has been growing since 2021 and could increase by 89% by the end of 2024 if developers bring all of the energy storage systems they have planned on line by their intended commercial operation dates

Honest question, what good is energy storage infrastructure if everything from Lead-Acid to Lithium ion batteries degrade in a matter of a few years?

We talking capacitors?

@AllonzeeLV @Wanderer
therefore we must think of energy storage beyond lithium. Heat storage pools, lifted water for kinetic energy and so on.
