That's awesome, I don't think I have heard of that. I'm going to look into that for sure, thanks for the quick explanation.
That reminds me of that idea of a solar panel farm that uses its excess energy to lift a boulder during the day and then during the night the boulder falls and turns alternators that create electricity from the weight of the boulder slowly falling back down overnight
Yes but I think methane is far more practical
Google "synthetic methane"
Ah, I have. Yes, I see what you mean. That is a useful technology.
Is that specific field still very prototypical? I can't find any real-world applications yet.
Can it scale or has it only been experimented within laboratory settings so far?
Oh wait, Japan of course, what's going through with trials. Cool
There's a huge plant in California and France. theres a lot.
