I am in agreement with you. Its a catch 22, where new technologies are implemented, that later cause problems. However, we would not know about the problems of said tech until large scale implementation. Regardless, i like the idea of cleaner methods to store excess renewable energy. I just worry because gas and oil companies are not exactly model industries for environmental issues
