If this isn’t just corporate hype, this could be great for making smaller batteries, hopefully less resource intensive.

    Over the last two decades battery technology has increased DRASTICALLY. So the cynicism isnt entirely deserved.

        Not exactly. Those technological leaps are spread throughout. It just looks like its entirely incremental even though its not really. It takes time to develop things and along the way the existing tech is refined.

          Just because the increments aren’t in a straight line doesn’t mean they’re not still incremental.

      I know battery tech is progressing and lithium ion is way advanced, but every month I see a bait article claiming they are revolutionizing the tech and this new technology will DOUBLE or TRIPLE the liion battery… Especially the solid state battery articles. It’s always bait

        It takes time to develop things. And solid state batteries like this really are promising.
