Right now, the dirty secret is that renewables are integrated into our energy supply by having a crap-tonne of gas capacity (and importing nuclear energy from France) standing ready on poor renewable days.

You’d have to strip mine the entire planet’s worth of supply lithium and other required metals to be able to do it

Neither of these are questions. These are statements. False ones repeated again and again by the same fossil fuel and nuclear lobbyists lying to you.

Oh, sorry. No. They don’t lie. They pay millions for desinformation so people like you tell the lie while seriously thinking it’s true. That might actually be worse even but ymmv…
