You need to ask those same questions of the energy sources currently being exploited as well if you want to be considered to be asking in good faith.

- 0xffff2 4y agoBatteries are a means of energy storage, not an energy source. If OP was talking about solar, yeah that needs to be compared against coal. Adding huge batteries to your home is an entirely new phenomenon. There is no comparison to be made.
- mywittyname 4y agoBatteries are a prerequisite to making other energy sources viable though. So you really do need to be comparing current energy sources to be acting in good faith because the presence of batteries make it possible to better exploit solar or wind energy.
