I saw that #JustHaveAThink episode and it does look very promising. I can't wait to get actual operating data from that pilot project at a former thermal coal power plant.

Coal burning is still adding 16 billion tons of CO2 to our thin, precious, polluted atmosphere every year so we need to stop it asap!

One of the best aspects in a lot of ways is that it will allow plant workers to still have jobs there in those communities.

#JustHaveAThink

One of my fav YT Channels Just Have A Think
will be 'investigating' some of the #ClimateSolutions he suggested in the previous years.
Revisiting
the idea and finding out how feasible it turned out to be.
Was it an idea worthy of further research or did it turn out to be a dead end?
I, for one, will keep my eye open for these 'updates'.

In this clip the man revisites the idea of 'Reversible Rusting' by Form Energy.
A large grid scale electricity storage system made of cheap, friendly raw materials.
This idea seems to be working out ! Somewhere around this time the first large scale implmentation is put into service in the US.

I found this clip certainly worth the 11:12 min of my time.
It kept my hopes up and the options a bit more open in these very troubleling times.

"Cheap, multi-day grid energy. FINALLY!"
