]]> 2022-10-06 01:30:08 UTC https://padlet.com/amelianoffs/fkzbq95hqqiwlsa4/wish/2328520082 Limitations of Pumped Storage Hydropower: amelianoffs https://padlet.com/amelianoffs/fkzbq95hqqiwlsa4/wish/2328520904 -       High initial capitol cost (of constructing and starting the energy storage plant) (2)
-       Site-specific negative environmental impacts (look at combining alternative energy sources for pumping water back up to high potential energy state) (2)

-       Good lifetime of use – approximately 30-60 years (1)
-       Has an energy efficiency of 70-85%

How can renewable energy aid the Victorian government goal of achieving its 50% carbon emissions by 2030]]> 2022-10-06 01:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/amelianoffs/fkzbq95hqqiwlsa4/wish/2328522443 Supporting Finding - Lithium-ion batteries: amelianoffs https://padlet.com/amelianoffs/fkzbq95hqqiwlsa4/wish/2332785566 -       Efficiency of 85—95% (most efficient energy storage system available) (1)
-       Very small discharge time (from as little as minutes) (1)
-       High energy density (3)
-       Low maintenance (3)

-       Ageing/Lifecycle if over-used (3)
-       Dangerous transportation (3)
-       Current high costs of the resource – however these prices are expected to drop in the near future (4)
