Casey Handmer & Ramez Naam on Long-Duration Storage and the Future Grid
Show Notes
At Presidio Bitcoin's Type I Summit, Casey Handmer (Terraform Industries) and Ramez Naam (Singularity University) break down the limits of lithium-ion for long-duration storage, why new chemistries and thermal storage matter, and how different loads (from home heating to AI data centers) will choose their own level of reliability. They sketch a future where batteries live everywhere, in vehicles, homes, distribution lines, substations, and utility-scale sites, and markets, not central planners, decide how much storage we build.
