> Storing enough energy for 7-days worth

Thank you for pointing that out so I don't have to. He's tossing an insane requirement in there and hoping you don't notice. So instead of needing storage to shift about 20-30% of power needs on a daily basis he claims an absolute requirement of 700% of daily usage. Making any solution 20-30 times more costly.

Consider the alternative, as we have snow days. We could have 'energy days' where non-essential demand gets cut off and we fire up some combined cycle plants.

Also I'm not wading through his website again but last time I looked he was studiously ignoring thermal storage. Running that calculation is pretty easy. But he doesn't. Because it's doable even with his deranged 7 day requirement.
