That page has a warning at the top
"The examples and perspective in this article deal primarily with the United States and do not represent a worldwide view of the subject. You may improve this article, discuss the issue on the talk page, or create a new article, as appropriate. "

Then when you go into the talk page
it's full of people discussing the bias

"Fossil-fuel consumption subsidies were $409 billion in 2010, oil products being half of it. Renewable-energy subsidies were $66 billion in 2010.

oops typo
#2 "Electric cars are set to be banned" (not they aren't)
should be #2 "Petrol/diesel cars are set to be banned" (not they aren't)

A good start would be the removal of the vast state subsidies to the oil and gas industries.

No matter how many times it has been proven that is a blatant lie it's still trotted out by Green blob and reported by BBC/MSM as a truth with no editorial correction/comment.

Truly sickening bias and partiality.

On a legal point: isn't that a statement of fact which is untrue, thus libelling Gov't & the oil and gas industries?

"The main disadvantages with vanadium redox technology are a relatively poor energy-to-volume ratio in comparison with standard storage batteries"
ie it's a wacking great box that stores little energy
so cost compared to Lead Acid car battery will be expensive

@GC that Mail article said
"The company has created a pioneering method of storing energy, using large storage facilities that are long-lasting, effective and could transform the way energy is distributed to homes and businesses."
No it is not unique other people are developing same system

BTW

17 Jul 2017 - A disappointing trading statement last week from energy storage technology company RedT is not discouraging our experienced investor.

@Phil

#2b "Cornwall is the place for inspiration ..a farm of Red T Energy with solar panels "
"new storage solution" "doesn't ever degrade" "don't call them batteries"
they never said how this magic thing works
web says "The redT energy storage machine is based on vanadium redox flow-lithium systems"

PDF report says "losses of 21% in the worse case operating scenario, for a minimum voltage of 42 V and a current of 112 A [14]. Internal losses of the VRB account for 15%, in which the reaction loss Preaction is 9% and the resistive loss Presistive is 6%. "
