To reach our global goal of being net zero carbon emissions by 2050, we must solve one problem - energy storage. Thank you to Toyota for lending us the #Mirai and for sponsoring this series. Scientists, researchers, and engineers are working to develop innovative ways of addressing the intermittency of wind and solar energy. I got to talk to them in part 3 of my renewable energy road trip with Toyota in their #Mirai Previous videos in this series: The Truth about Driving a Hydrogen Car [https://youtu.be/hghIckc7nrY] Hydrogen vs. Battery Electric Cars [https://youtu.be/dWAO3vUn7nw] Creator/Host: Dianna Cowern Editor: Levi Butner Producer: Hope Butner Production Assistant: Laura Chernikoff Story Consultant: Patrick Muhlberger Research: Sophia Chen and Erika Carlson Support Dianna during her recovery at patreon.com/physicsgirl http://physicsgirl.org/ http://twitter.com/thephysicsgirl http://facebook.com/thephysicsgirl http://instagram.com/thephysicsgirl Special thank you to our X-Ray tier patrons: Carlos Patricio, David Cichowski, Eddie Sabbah, Fabrice Eap, Gil Chesterton, Isabel Herstek, Margaux Lopez, Matt Kaminski, Michael Schneider, Patrick Olson, Vikram Bhat, Vincent Argiro, wc993219 Resources: https://unfccc.int/sites/default/files/resource/LTS1_RKorea.pdf https://highwaysengland.co.uk/netzerohighways/ https://iea.blob.core.windows.net/assets/beceb956-0dcf-4d73-89fe-1310e3046d68/NetZeroby2050-ARoadmapfortheGlobalEnergySector_CORR.pdf https://www.iea.org/reports/net-zero-by-2050
