Thanks - that’s actually helpful!
Soon: “We gotta ban these calcium batteries to protect the innocent lithium companies!”
China is producing cheaper and safer batteries, but at what cost!
Oh cool another magical battery technology that we will never hear about again
There is a lot of science happening but adoption will never happen overnight. There’s many potential alternative chemistries but they need time and money to mature. Lithium batteries took decades to mature. Calcium and sodium batteries definitely don’t match “never hear about again”.
