Larry,
<<In any event, the system is modular and the tanks can easily be replaced with tanks containing charged electrolyte. This is necessary to avoid the need for motor-generator back up where the power outage is longer than 4 hours.>>

I would think that because the system IS Modular, if it was not large enough to meet demand, another module could be added beside it, or larger tanks could be added.This unit ,from the news release,one application is for "backup" power, meaning there would be long periods of time for bringing it up to its maximum charge so i believe ideal for solar and wind charging.Twenty kilowatt hours is a lot of power...look at your electrical bill..my average one day consumption for this year is 20.41KWHR's/ day and this is shameful..far to high..but that is city living...out in the bush we are very comfortable with 2 BP 80 watt laser grooved solar panels and that is because nothing out there runs 24/7. If i had storage out there like this system provides we could be as wasteful as we are in the city.<<gg>>
