CAISO and ERCOT hold two-thirds of U.S. battery capacity, face the same cannibalization risk, and are the only empirical roadmap the rest of the country has
Wow interesting. Maybe in more arid climates there is less opposition because there’s fewer trees to preserve? Otherwise I can’t imagine why it would be different.
I haven’t heard any backlash against batteries here although there has been some against large solar projects.
I usually see people saying the batteries will catch fire and the toxic gasses will kill everyone within 3 miles. Like many NIMBY complaints, they are barely based in reality and blown away out of proportion.
