The biggest source of energy the world has is the Sun it is "infinite" Oil and the worlds minerals are not, and the change to use alternative energies is here and here to stay...the problem using solar energy is capturing it and storing it, with the caveat of a cataclysmic event, the Sun will burn for millions of years to come.
In the past solar energy could only be used in daylight hours and was essentially turned of when it got dark....so no real use as we need energy constantly 24/7 ....For decades we have had companies making storage batteries to hold energy take "Tesla" however most storage batteries being built today are either dangerous ie catch fire or can not be built to the scale where they could hold the power to run cities and towns...well for the last few years there have been companies developing such technologies the product used is VANADIUM.....Lithium was the choice of smaller scale storage for cars and hand tools etc...but lithium can be dangerous and can not be scaled to the size required for 100s of G/W Vanadium can, on top of this Vanadium never depletes so the storage battery can be loaded and discharged virtually infinitely also the Vanadium can be reused after the battery storage life...so recyclable. Take a look at one such company that owns the largest Vanadium mines in SA and are actively making these Mega Watt storage batteries....the company is Bushveld Energy ticker "BMN" the CEO Fortune Majepelo is a complete breath of fresh air...please do your own research this is not a recommendation for clarity I have been invested in this company for over 6 years....just take a look....GLA
