From alkaline batteries for small electronics to lithium-ion batteries for cars and laptops, most people already use batteries in many aspects of their daily lives. For example, high-capacity batteries with long discharge times – up to 10 hours – could be valuable for storing solar power at night or increasing the range of electric vehicles.

still obtained 63% of its electricity from fossil fuels. He didn’t mention nuclear power or carbon sequestration in this speech, but his website does mention them among four specific goals designed to decarbonize the power sector. Small modular nuclear reactors at half the construction cost of today’s reactors.

This step is viewed by many as a considerably cleaner option than the current conventional methods of H2 production in the United States, which use natural gas reforming in large central plants without any carbon emission mitigation. Nuclear energy can provide the consistent, high-temperature heat needed for efficient electrolysis.
