Ukraine War Makes the Case for Renewable, Decentralized Energy
As Putin's war of choice against Ukraine tears that nation apart, his army is in the process of seizing a second nuclear power generating station, which will allow him to cut off power—and thus communications, heat, and water—to large chunks of that nation.
If most households in Ukraine had solar panels on their roofs and battery storage in their basements—as two states in Germany and the US State of California are now requiring for all new construction—blowing up or seizing a central power station would have far less ability to brown out large parts of the country.
