2/2 #Batteries and #AdvancedEnergyTechnologies can be. We are already advancing in these areas enough on our own to solve some very pressing problems(if not for constant obstruction via greed and politics). Many of the leaps within our reach have had and will have zero dependency on #AI. So distance between generations of new technology is also increasing.What kind of infrastructure do we build to support those futures ? It’s the same one we need to understand and grow as worthy partners overall

Millions of people are buying electricity from the grid when it's cheap or generating it using solar panels for free, then storing it in batteries for a few hours before selling it back to the grid when prices are high. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/09/04/markets/energy-selling-electricity-ai-batteries/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #energy #electricity #batteries #utilities #uk #tech #ai #solar #wind #renewables #electricvehicles

A climate strike is needed now. If you demonstrate you'll get arrested, because the UK is a recovering democracy, but mass staying home is an option.
Burnham and UKLabour REALLY want to get reelected.
Put green signs on all labour homes.

#Winemaking acid powers cleaner way for cobalt-nickel recovery from #BatteryWaste
Scientists use #TartaricAcid and electrowinning to split #cobalt and #nickel from battery waste for cleaner #recycling.
By Neetika Walter
Mar 11, 2026"Scientists have developed a cleaner way to separate cobalt and nickel from lithium-ion battery materials using an electrochemical technique boosted by a naturally occurring acid commonly associated with wine.
[...]
"The researchers say the approach could be particularly useful for '#UrbanMining,' the process of recovering valuable #minerals from discarded #electronics and spent #batteries. Countries with limited mining resources are increasingly looking to #recycling to secure supplies of critical materials.
" '#Electrowinning’s edge in urban mining gives us a practical pathway to turn battery waste into a valuable resource for cobalt and nickel, while also helping the United States reduce its reliance on foreign supply chains,' Liu says."

Answer: "No."
Most #CriticalMinerals are on #IndigenousLands. Will miners respect #TribalSovereignty?
by Taylar Dawn Stagner, March 26, 2025
"#Mining — whether for #FossilFuels or, increasingly, the critical minerals in high demand today — has a long history of perpetuating violence against #IndigenousPeople. Forcibly removing tribal communities to get to natural resources tied to their homelands has been the rule, not the exception, for centuries.
"Today, more than half of the mineral deposits needed for a global energy transition — including #lithium, #cobalt, #copper, and #nickel to make things like #batteries and #SolarPanels — are found near or beneath Indigenous lands.
"In 2007, the United Nations adopted a resolution called the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples [#UNDRIP] that included the right to free, prior, and informed consent to the use of their lands, a concept known as #FPIC. This principle protects #IndigenousPeoples from being forcibly relocated, provides suitable avenues for redress of past injustices, and gives tribes and communities the right to consent to — and the right to refuse — #extractive industry projects like #mining.
"There’s a lot at stake: When followed, FPIC promises a process that gives Indigenous peoples a voice in how their homelands are used, as well as the right to say no to development altogether. And when it’s not, which is the vast majority of the time, #TribalCommunities are further #disenfranchised, facing #violence and #ForcedRelocation as their #sovereignty and rights are ignored.
"There are an estimated 5,000 tribal communities around the world, encompassing roughly 476 million people across 90 countries, according to the U.N. Different tribes have different opinions on mining, but rarely is their legal right to refuse extraction projects recognized, even under the 2007 declaration.
"Grist talked with five experts to better understand what free, prior, and informed consent should look like in this new era of mineral extraction. Their responses have been edited for length and clarity."

Lufthansa tightens the rules for carrying power banks inside the cabin.
After a fire broke out due to a power bank in an overhead compartment on a South Korean aircraft in 2025, airlines are taking action to minimise risks.
Germany’s Lufthansa is leading the charge in Europe.

Since #SodiumBatteries are rolled out by #China now, which are much more useful in a wide range of temperatures from (-20°C to 60°C) up to (-70°C to 100°C), mega-batteries will replace fossils even faster.
I still advocate for more #homebatteries and #microgrids to stabilize the grid. -

We need to shift from the grid as the primary source of electricity, with renewables and batteries as individualized backups, to the other way around.
Being one solar event away from the collapse of our society, individualized sources of electricity can be protected by Faraday cages, with the grid (relieved of strain) serving remote areas and backing up individual solutions in the event of failure.

(My two cents: Microgrids. To stabilize the grid, we would additionally need #microgrids in every neighborhood.)

Got 20A #SmartCharger for lead-acid (and 12V #lithium) #batteries - also has 13,6V constant supply for #coding #car #ECU (so starter #battery doesn't run down whilst getting data from #OBD2)
It works well - but confirmed my suspicions in recent weeks (alas) that battery in my #GolfGTI is goosed (installed 2021 by #VW dealer, presumably as warranty replacement with 0 record on service history, only worked this out from date code)
I'd noticed slower cranking in the cold, battery losing charge quickly and OBD2 scans showing "low voltage warning" codes from LED lighting control.
Will replace it before it bites me in the arse during #winter - #EFB unobtanium but got #AGM on order for fairly good price (will have to change coding when it arrives!)

$0/$2000
Atha and Inara are out of HRT, need more batteries and insulation before winter really starts to get super cold, and also fast running out of time to pay for their car loan and credit card bills. Please help!
This week we need to raise at least $2000, and we know most of you don't have any money to give and of those who remain, very few have anything in four figures or more spare. What can you give to help us keep these otherkin, trans, non-binary beans alive and well?
They live in a half-converted school bus to RV project known as the #Vulpibus and are building their lives back up after being forced into #homelessness last year.
You can help make their situation more liveable and safe!
You can help them resume their transitions!
Share, boost, talk about them and the work they are doing for #geneediting systems development and maybe spare some coin, or some connections to free stuff or unofficial part time online jobs!

Hey
@vulpinelabs @Kuniti_shino have found a place to park for the moment but need to pay off some debts and buy some batteries and insulation before the weather gets REALLY cold.
What can @mutual_aid #URGENTMUTUALAID #MUTUALAID raise them today?
They are on $470/$2000 for dealing with debts.
For the batteries, $0/$400
For the insulation, $0/$250#donate:
