But there's nothing preventing, say, lithium-ion energy storage from providing power for 100+ hours, it's just a matter of how much storage you have and how fast you use it. Is that "100 hours" actually a limitation they're trying to spin? Can their batteries not be discharged at greater than a 0.01C rate?
