Since the main problem that is always chucked at those of us who would like to see more renewable energy is the question of energy storage, people might like to know that there are advances being made in that area. Advances are possible with funding.

Tesla is not a mainstream name here, but they are a leader in the production of electric cars, high-end ones with high performance. They're trying to bring the cost down to mid-market range. Tesla is incidentally linked to the SpaceX company, both run by one Elon Musk. Someone give the man a Nobel prize. I wonder what could have been achieved by now if there had been serious political interest.
