      I think the biggest challenge for engineering (and humanity!) in the near future is going to be energy. We are getting very good at generating energy in a clean and sustainable way, but not so good at storing it. Most renewable sources aren’t able to produce energy non-stop, so storing the energy they produce is critical to guarantee a continuous supply. What do you think, is energy going to be the next big engineering thing?
