Can the Grid Handle the Transition to Electric Energy?

The energy transition from fossil fuels to electricity, based on wind and solar, is a daunting proposition. It will require new transmission lines and battery storage, and it must happen as storms and heat waves become more intense and frequent. Sascha von Meier, a physicist who specializes in the #ElectricGrid, thinks it can be done. At the same time, communities need to prepare to protect people as #climate change accelerates.
