“If a windmill in one’s back garden could produce an hundredweight of coal daily (and it can produce its equivalent in energy), our coalmines would shut down to-morrow. Even to-morrow a cheap, foolproof, and durable storage battery may be invented, which will enable us to transform the intermittent energy of the wind into continuous electric power.

Personally, I think that four hundred years hence the power question in England may be solved as follows: The country will be covered with rows of metallic windmills working electric motors which will in turn supply a current at a very high voltage to great electric mains. At suitable distances, there will be great power stations where during windy weather the surplus power will be used for the electrolytic decomposition of water in oxygen and hydrogen.

These gases will be liquefied, and stored in vacuum jacketed reservoirs, probably sunk into the ground.”
