As a result of a deepening agreement of the negative environmental impact of non-renewable (fossil) energy sources, the search is on for alternatives to replace them. A fundamental problem is the storage of energy in a form suitable for its use in scales both industrial and personal, from the Megawatts to the Milliwatts. This talk will overview some of the active areas of research, and the problems and promises of specific technologies.
