Batteries Not Included | Marek Kubik | TEDxBudva

Описание: Marek Kubik got an engineering degree from university 8 years ago and was about to start working for a prestigious company. His perfect plan was set in motion when he received a phone call that changed his life - due to the global recession they couldn’t take him on after all.

Picture of Earth he saw around that time that had been taken by NASA nearly two decades ago made him think about fragility of the world we live in and our constant necessity for energy. Renewable energy, in particular. Marek started looking for ways to store renewable energy and actually have it at our disposal even when the sun does not shine, when the wind does not blow.

His contributions in the field of storing renewable energy with his startup Fluence landed him a spot in Forbes’s list of “30 under 30” innovators in 2017.
