  1. So, a #BatteryEnergyStorageSystem is in the works a few miles from where we live -- on the #SacoRiver. The local fire departments are already working on keeping on top of an incident if one happens, and knowing what to do if a #LithiumBatteryFire breaks out (the area where we live was mostly burned down in 1947, so fires are a big deal around here). It's something to be aware of. #LithiumBatteries aren't the saviors they are being made out to be. We need to invest in #SodiumIonBatteries and #SaltWaterBatteries and anything BUT #Lithium at this point -- ASAP!

  6. Alrighty then. In addition to some suggestions from folks for topics for this week's #SolarPunkSunday, I'm going to spend some time researching and posting about #LithiumBattery alternatives -- and yes, there are some out there!

  11. So yeah. What's going on with battery storage that doesn't involve #Lithium? I think we need to get that figured out --ASAP!

  16. "The [#LithiumBatteryFire], which is more than 300 miles away from and totally unrelated to the Southern California wildfires, was 'raging out of control Thursday night, sending up huge flames and clouds of hazardous black smoke,' according to local news reports.

    "It was reported at the #MossLandingPowerPlant located in northern #MontereyCounty around 3 p.m.

    "Evacuations of about 1,500 people were ordered for the area, and the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office called other agencies in the county to help with the emergency.

    "The facility, owned by #VistraEnergy, a Texas company, is one of the largest #BatteryStorage plants in the world, The Mercury News reported. It holds tens of thousands of #LithiumBatteries, which are used to store electricity generated from #SolarPower.

    "'There’s no way to sugarcoat it. This is a disaster, is what it is,' Monterey County Supervisor Glen Church told KSBW-TV. 'This is extremely disconcerting.'

    "The plant is located on the site of a now-shuttered 1950s-era PG&E Moss Landing natural gas plant, which was converted into a BESS facility in 2020. The site can store a total of 750 megawatts of energy, which is sold to PG&E, The Mercury News reported. A separate 182-megawatt battery storage plant that has 256 #Tesla '#Megapack' battery packs is also located on the north side of the site. According to The Mercury News, that facility did not appear to be burning.

    "The cause of the fire has not yet been determined, but past reports indicate that this is the third fire at the facility."
