Storage can solve any problem, but we don't have good enough solution yet. I agree energy storage research is the highest priority item.

We have a few promising ones IMO. Lithium will probably win out due to cost, but liquid metal storage is what I wish would win. It is more expensive, yet it also has basically infinite cycles (it doesn't wear out). That seems like an ideal characteristic for grid storage.
