babcock has the largest combined solar and storage facility in the us. the batteries can store a0 megawatt hours of electricity, which is enough to keep around 2,000 average us homes alight for four hours. of course, lithium batteries are just one way of storing energy to use later, and we've seen other methods before. there's electric mountain in wales, which holds water at a top reservoir until power is needed. it then releases it back down to a lake below. switzerland's air cave fills itself with compressed air and then blows it out to turn turbines. well, now, over in california, kate russell is on track to see a new solution. since the oil crisis of the 1970s, california has invested heavily into wind and solar power, with the latest state legislation calling for 50% renewable energy by 2030, and all new homes must have solar within two years. the state is way ahead of its target, so much so that they've had to start paying neighbouring states to take some of the energy from them. as we've heard before, the problem is storage. the grid was built to
