The renewable energy sector is ramping up in a major way, but a host of infrastructure issues still need to be solved. One is that supply at times now outstrips demand, but there’s no way to store excess power. Turning it into an easy-to-store, energy-rich source like methane could solve the problem. A pivotal aspect of ‘power-to-gas’ technology harnesses some tiny helpers usually found in some of the most extreme regions on the planet. 

Considering the high development costs of medications and the time invested before a drug goes from discovery to market, it is critical to develop not only a solid drug development strategy, but a contemporary manufacturing strategy as well. A parallel development strategy could be one possible approach.
