You people are confused about the use of electrical storage devices to aid unreliable energy sources such as windmills and solar devices. The use of Altair batteries for such tasks is totally ludicrous. Altair batteries cost so much that the only niche they have found thus far that is even remotely cost effective is
as very small capacity units to smooth out small variations in grid flow. Even there, they would be 10 times more costly than EEStor devices, overall, should EEStor’s EESUs’ prove viable. From the latest revelations about the devices , most importanly, that they are operating in paraelectric phase, NOT the widely assumed ferroelectric phase assumed by their skeptical critics, the supposedly fatal dielectric saturation foresaw by the skeptics is not possible. Unless you are familair with these facts and have some contradictory (and plausible) comments, I would keep my mouth firmly shut if you are thinking about voicing any additional brainless criticisms about EEStor.
What’s funny is that all this nonsense is about CO2,
an insignificant component of a poorly understood system that’s all about water vappor, water vapor, water vapor. This gullible generation of earth saviers, who can’t compete economically against any foreign country, no matter how primitive is avoiding the effort and fighting to reduce a chemical that has nothing to do with any future events, catastrophic or not. Ohhh, I’m so scared of high carbon levels.
By the way, the total polar ice mass is increasing and is at a 60 year high. Al, where are you Al?

Agree, EESTOR is a joke! I have a google alert set for blogs and news about EESTOR. Several times a week, I am amazed by continued reports on this bogus company. One report mentioned EESTOR and some ultracapacitor research being done at MIT ... as if they were on par, it was sickening.

Please do not use EESTOR in the same sentence with Altairnano and A123Systems. EESTOR is a scam, Altairnano and A123Systems are real companies.
