Yeah, would like to see more improvements there. Running up to fundamental limits with that though. Perhaps large batteries can be charged and moved elsewhere, but that seems more feasble with molten salt tanks now (but would become more feasble when 4+ hour storage for chemical batteries gets cheaper).

Yeah, really hard to look at prospective projects in terms of lcoe (maybe we'll get more insight with any bids for providing via that link in the future) so we'll really have to see and I don't see anything about MW or MWh costs listed there (just upfront) so i'm assuming only day time baseload.
