Wind turbines and photovoltaics (PVs) are becoming increasingly widespread worldwide, which could contribute to reducing air pollution caused by fossil fuel emissions. To produce energy, however, these renewable energy solutions rely on specific weather conditions (e.g., the presence of wind and sufficient hours of sunlight).

    Interesting study. However, I think we’re past the point of studies informing our decisions here in the US. I still thought it was really interesting to read.

    I feel like adequate energy storage would at least alleviate some of the worry on days when there is less production. There has to be days when there is too much energy produced and rather than wasting it, find some way to store it whether it’s batteries or something else.
