This thinking is so 1889! Not to be downer here, but today is the day we need to gut check our collective selves.
I implore all to begin innovating outside the confines of existing infrastructure! Contrary to Breakthrough Energy tagline thought here, we don't "need to first rebuild our electricity grids." Perhaps retrofit them with advanced technology available on the market today, sure! Even then, that is only an idealistic, albeit predictably obsolescent approach to fix to our planet's temperature rise. If we don't fast track "imagined innovative advanced energy and propulsion" concepts, it's not going to matter when 2/3 of the planet is on fire, our atmosphere is consuming the remainder of so -called "advanced" life forms, and our oceans are drowning the last of the 1% with the economic resources to live day in day out under the imprisonment of oxygen masks.
A world in lockstep with the "universal force" governing our planet is the only means of advancing upon a faded newtonian industrialized approach to energy generation and utilization. Reach Collectron Energy directly if you dare to think outside of handcuffed innovation to actually make a difference! We'd love to talk with you about your ideas matched with our ideas for our ongoing deployment of distributed energy resources.., aka... Grand Challenge.
To achieve a clean energy future, we need to triple our electricity usage. But first, we need to rebuild our electricity grids, which requires significant policy reform. Learn more about the Electricity Grand Challenge in the State of the Transition: https://nt-z.ro/48VlWDs

3moIn mountainous areas in which fuel transportation is expensive and unreliable, #solar electric #cooking and heating can help reduce #biomass burning. When the sun is not shining, high efficiency wood or pallet burning #improvedstoves should be used because black carbon particulate will accelerate melting of ice caps. This is important for the people living in #Georgia as well as us that need more ice-cover for the water supply and reduced global warming. Assuming solar electric cooking is applicable 70% of the time, and the improved wood-burning stove has 3 times the efficiency of open-fire cooking, the overall biomass needed is only 10% of the original, which can be provided from biomass wastes.
