Bottling Wind Power
Dallas Center, Iowa, USA - Business Week says "the future is taking shape under the windswept corn and soybean fields outside Dallas Center, Iowa," where a group of Midwest utilities is building a facility where excess wind power will be stored underground.
The Iowa Stored Energy Park is meant to solve a key problem with wind power: it’s intermittent nature ... The ISEP will store the excess energy windmills create when demand is low so it can be used later, when the need is greater.
