Cheap Lithium Batteries

It’s absolute madness for static buildings, just scrap the wind farms and solar farms, build some nuclear power stations and grow crops in the fields again.

It might be a smart move to first develop some sort of strategy for storing the waste. It needs to be kept safe and secure for a quarter of a million years.
So far, nobody has worked out how or where to store it.
Yes, there are suggestions like making it into lumps of glass and burying it, but the reality is that none of them actually are both practicable and effective.

I have looked at my post a few times and not sure what I was thinking when I posted it as I quite like both solar and wind farms. There must have been something else I meant to put in the post but for the life of me I can't think what it was.

In any event, they could just bury waste like the are doing with all the wind farm blades, its scandalous how many of them are being buried and it never seems to get brought to the attention of the public. They only push one side oof it. That true on all green initiatives though I think, only ever the plus side. It like all of us saying we are cooking/heating etc on free power totally disregarding the capital costs

Ah, yeah that terrible scourge of worn out windfarm blades, made of extremely toxic materials emitting lethal ionising radiation for hundreds of thousands of years. Oh wait: was I thinking of glass fibre boats and motorhome panels?

Sorry, but when objections to renewable energy get down to that level, taking the piss is so tempting.

Everything we make is toxic, atest was made on humans to detect how many had plastics in there sys, all had, very hard to escape polution unles we blast it into space.

Or stop causing it in the first place. Disposable plastic wrapping on everything, often two or three layers. Water in plastic bottles. Crazy.

You can't just bury nuclear waste. It has to be monitored for longer than humans have been on the planet. Two hundred times as long as since the Romans built Hadrians Wall.

Windfarm blades, on the other hand, are neither chemically toxic nor radioactive. Burying them is much the same as burying a used water bottle. Bad, but not lethal.

Of course you can, it's buried inside specially constructed chambers once marked for disposal. Before that its stored above ground, we have even been guilty of dumping nuclear waste at sea at one time. You will probably be surprised to hear we have over 5 million tonnes of nuclear waste in the UK?

Quantities of nuclear waste in UK Total waste

Managing nuclear waste Waste management

Nuclear is clean energy, we will either struggle or go bankrupt without it as things are at present

Well i for sure dont want it, fusion is just around the corner which is clean.

Only fusion around my corner is likely Confusion .....

Not saying any of us particularly want it but we all want what it produces 24/7 lol

Getting cheaper by the day.

A grade cells are used for demanding situations like EV's. B grade are perfectly adequate for our application. I doubled up to 8 305Ah cells in 4S2P configuration (4 pairs of cells in series). This fitted into the space provided in my MH for a pair of 100Ah lead acid batteries. Sure you have to change mains and B-B chargers but the upgrade is very worthwhile. I used Victron equipment for the upgrade with no regrets. I now rarely used gas for the fridge allowing the inverter to run overnight. I still switch the fridge to battery during driving to maximise charging during driving.
