Sean White (solarSEAN.com) is interviewed on his former student Cory Vanderpool's podcast. 

 

The talk about various subjects including:

 

Solar and wind are finally cheapest forms of electricity

 

EVs bringing down the cost of lithium-ion Energy Storage Systems (ESS)

 

Battery benefits including being a load, besides being a source of power 

 

Wind power’s cubed relationship to wind speed

 

Frequency regulation is the biggest use for energy storage right now

 

Negative energy pricing in Germany

 

Ramp rates of energy storage beating all other forms of energy by a long shot, especially underground mined resources (fossil fuels and nuclear)

 

EV to grid future

 

LG Batteries in cars vs. home ESS price being the same

 

Lithium-ion graphite anodes, silicon anodes, lithium metal anode, specific energy (energy per weight), dendrites, energy density (energy per volume)

 

Sean’s $0.20 to $0.40 per kWh battery price prediction in 10-years

 

Soldering home-made lithium-ion battery packs

 

Battery cells, battery modules, battery packs definition

 

Buying houses with pre-existing solar, real estate with solar, and knowing how to value them, solar valuation, solar asset value, solar offset value (offsetting electricity)
