US finds clean energy storage both too expensive and too cheap

April 26, 2024March 10, 2025 by Boˆreal

Clean energy has entered a quantum phase. Not in a technological sense, but in the co-existence of the contradictory positions: Cheaper green energy would support uptake, yet meanwhile the US complains that China is overproducing clean electricity technology and thus flooding the market with cheap goods. Perhaps this contradiction comes from the two ways we … Continue reading US finds clean energy storage both too expensive and too cheap
