"The logistics around energy supply are what matter," the expert explains. Storage technologies—such as hydropower, geothermal, and increasingly efficient batteries—are critical in smoothing supply and demand. Storage solutions are improving rapidly, lowering costs and expanding capacity to store energy for times when generation is low.
