"Washington is home to the largest manufacturer of vanadium flow batteries in the world a technology that Forbes defined as the energy storage breakthrough weve needed to scale-up the adoption of renewable energy.
Innovation in the State is also being spearheaded by a leading manufacturer of carbon fiber for electric cars and a thriving wind turbines industry, which has helped reduce the cost of wind power by over 50% between 2010 and 2015."
"We are optimistic about [defeating climate change], says Governor Inslee, so spreading that information of success is very important, particularly since we have a climate denier in the White House. But heres the good news: the President of the United States cannot stop California, or Washington, or Hawaii or Québec. We are moving with or without him, as the future of our country.

(11,495 posts)We should be talking about that more, not less. If we don't do something about it, the whole world is in trouble. Instead of fighting each other here on DU, we should be pointing out all the things Democrats will do to help fight not only Climate change, but all the other things that affect our country and the world.
Thanks for posting this.

Vanadium batteries are exciting. The batteries in my smart phone and Kindle seem like miracles, but the VFB is going to be a whole new revolution, not that I expect to be carrying one around on my wrist, of course. But for storing wind and solar energy, and much more. Wow! They're already talking about doubling already enormous capacity in the second generation.
