walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I know it would be a lot, but not that big a difference compared to concrete blocks mass of material. If you build a tower to haul blocks you might as well haul a similar amount of dirt, or build water towers, to make a pumped hydro station, which will have fewer issues in the long term. 110
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Not necessarily. You can literally dig a hole in the ground to do pumped hydro, and long term maintenance will still be far lower. 120
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026This second one has tighter viability constraints, but still finds enough storage capacity for about half a year of global energy consumption. It also includes a helpful map of sites. Electric transmission can cover some of the gaps, but not all. pubs.rsc.org/ee/article/1...pubs.rsc.orgEnvironmental and geographic constraints shape global pumped hydroelectric storage for long-duration energy storageLong-duration energy storage is essential for stabilizing electricity systems dominated by wind and solar power, with pumped hydroelectric storage (PHS) as 020
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Found 2 of them. This first one has looser conditions for viability, but identifies enough potential capacity to store 3 entire years of 2025 electricity production. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...iopscience.iop.orgPumped hydro energy storage to support 100% renewable energyPumped hydro energy storage to support 100% renewable energy, Blakers, Andrew, Weber, Timothy, Silalahi, David 040
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026That analysis has been done actually. I'll see if I can find it, but the conclusion was that the entire world could easily use pumped hydro for energy storage when renewables aren't running, even very flat places (electrical lines can carry electricity very far). 030
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 07/07/2026It's more likely to be criticized by green energy advocates. Gravity batteries utilizing concrete actually kinda suck for a variety of reasons. Pumped-storage hydroelectricity is superior in basically every way.

walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Fair. But I think that's more an issue of the failings of public education and our media ecosystem, not a problem with the argument itself. Someone arguing a scientifically backed claim (or a mathematically provable truth) is not obligated to change their argument to accommodate public ignorance. 110

walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Then there's the effect of man-made aerosoles which are causing some short term cooling, but leave the atmosphere fairly quickly, thus masking some of the warming we would have otherwise gotten and will get in the future. 000
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 31/05/2026It is baffling, disheartening, and kind of soul crushing to see the results of how horrible public math education has been. This is not complicated. Percents are literally taught in elementary school, and even the "advanced" use of percents is no later than middle school. 100
walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social @walkthemaxplanck.bsky.social · 31/05/2026For the many people who seem to be confused by this, a brief example to show why it's correct. If change without humans would have been -0.3, and instead we've gotten +1.5, then humans would have caused +1.8. 1.8 > 1.5, therefore also > 100% of 1.5. Those numbers are only for illustrative purposes. 100
