#Safe drinking water Via Solar power Desalination Natasha Wright, an MIT Phd student in mechanical engineering, has designed a solar powered system that makes water safe to drink for rural, off-grid Indian villages.
She designed a village-scale desalination system that runs on solar power. Since her system is powered by the sun,
and solar power in recent years is launching more than 20 demonstration projects that involve storing energy by splitting water into hydrogen gas and oxygen.
because excess wind and solar power creates a glut of power on the grid. Because power needs to be used as soon as it s generated to keep the grid stable prices are dropped sometimes to zero
We may be able to design materials that mimic nature's machinery to harvest solar energy, or manipulate light for telecommunications applications,
California needs more energy storage to match the duck curve Experiencing this net load years ahead of the CAISO forecast has placed not the California grid in crisis. The state's grid has sufficient flexibility today to accommodate the rapid rise of solar power,
The CPUC can pull out the playbook that bestowed California with an abundance of solar energy and use it again with energy storage.
As solar energy production drops off, CAISO forecasts a 14,000-megawatt resource ramp in 2020 on that date.
