   Great suggestion. A lot of community colleges also have partnerships with state universities. So you can have your 4 year plan already set as soon as you start at the community college. I know that is true in Texas.

    Some problems I see with this design are space, labor and logistics akin to a warehouse, impacts from natural disasters. Personally I like the idea of moving water up a river or behind a dam to store energy.

    This is a huge concern for me at my current organization. Dev has decided to put all data into mongoDB. Yet all decisions are based on that data and the tools we have do not allow for seamless flow (ETL) from mongoDB. That data is import
