Mapping Renewable Energy Sources in Albania
Albania is a net energy importer. Net energy imports are directly correlated to annual rainfall, given that the electricity sector is almost entirely reliant on hydropower production. A further contributor to net energy imports is the country''s rising demand for petroleum products, largely fueling the transport sector.

''Thermal batteries'' could efficiently store wind and solar
That''s one of the most vexing questions standing in the way of a greener electrical grid. Massive battery banks are one answer. But they''re expensive and best at storing energy for a few hours, not for days long stretches of cloudy weather or calm. Another strategy is to use surplus energy to heat a large mass of material to ultrahigh
