Power-to-X: Unlike the name suggests, this is not a conspiracy theory of world domination. It is in fact, a new technology that aims to convert electricity into three different areas- synthetic fuels, heat energy, and hydrogen. It also helps in decreasing the reliability on grids and makes breakdowns a lesser possibility.

Although challenging, the idea to use sequestered CO 2 to produce electricity is a pretty elegant concept. These plants are in an arid region, with little access to water for power plant cooling. So, during the heat of the summer and without water cooling, binary power plants become less efficient.
