January 21, 2022 by Brian Wang. I, Brian Wang, made a video that puts together evidence that Tesla has already largely solved its battery supply problem. It is not 4680 batteries. It is not a solution that is coming later in the year. It is a supply solution that already reached a tipping point in 2021.

Currently, solar is converted to electricity in solar cells, which cannot store the energy long-term, and separate battery storage systems are inconvenient and expensive. To solve this problem, researchers are trying to find ways to combine the power conversion and storage capacity needs of solar energy into one device.
The battery energy storage system (EES) deployed in power system can effectively counteract the power fluctuation of renewable energy source. In the planning and operation process of grid side EES, however, the incorporation of power flow constraints into the optimization problem will strongly affect the solving efficiency.

The ever-increasing demand for electricity can be met while balancing supply changes with the use of robust energy storage devices. Battery storage can help with frequency stability and control for short-term needs, and they can help with energy management or reserves for long-term needs.
Flow batteries store energy in electrolyte solutions which contain two redox couples pumped through the battery cell stack. Many different redox couples can be used, such as V/V, V/Br 2, Zn/Br 2, S/Br 2, Ce/Zn, Fe/Cr, and Pb/Pb, which affect the performance metrics of the batteries. (1,3) The vanadium and Zn/Br 2 redox flow batteries are the ...

This article simply says that we don''t have yet a viable energy storage technology. So it can''t solve the problem of intermittent power sources – today. Big deal. I don''t think we should invest astronomical sums of money into intermittent sources until an energy storage becomes viable. To imply that it will never become viable is ...
