California is doing pretty good with their battery storage. And if all the electric car batteries get old we can use them as stationary grid storage.

That is actually very impressive. Thanks! I remain a bit skeptical as its only 1/5th of what they need and it's only one region of one (rich) country. Still, 10GW of lithium battery would be one hell of a fire ;-)
