When a lithium-ion battery reaches a critical temperature, the liquid electrolyte inside the battery can vaporize and release toxic, flammable gases including hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane, and propylene. During normal operating conditions the battery discharges power from the solar array to the grid.

Out in Utah, a coal-fired power plant supplying electricity to Los Angeles is being outfitted with natural-gas-fired turbines that will eventually be able to run on hydrogen, created via electrolysis with wind and solar power and stored in massive underground caverns for use when that clean energy isn’t available for the grid.

Hydrogen fuel cell technology may play a small but crucial role here, making up around 10 per cent of the total fleet in 2050, but fully electric trucks look set to be the future, the report states. Their current trajectory points towards a 30 per cent market share in 2040, far below what is required to meet global climate goals.

Storage is now largely being provided by lithium-ion batteries. Transmission studies have shown that stronger interconnections among the country’s three power grids are highly beneficial. Making buildings more efficient and controlling their demand can also play a big role in cleaning up the grid. electricity.
