Energy Storage in Miniaturized Capacitors May Boost Green Energy Technology .... Towards an Internet of energy?

My hunch seems right. 

Capacitors are the key to the next generation of energy smoothing devices. Perhaps, they can be scaled up as well to reduce energy waste and allow all firms and households of energy production to enter the grid. Democratic access to the grid to sell excess production could allow for cheap energy beyond present thinking and greatly reduce demands on fossil fuel sources .....

Crowd sourcing of energy by allowing household access to supply energy along the lines of an Internet is the key to ending a drift towards domination by a few greedy companies and investors. 

It's important to free people from the dominance of the large energy monopolies and to create a new style of energy Internet that people can use to share information as well as supply others with energy. By combining energy with data flow we can solve many many problems. 

The philosophy of scaling up can be defeated by democratic technologies based on the same principles that created the Internet of data.

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience.
