minus-squarehtrayl@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up17·2 days agoThis is just a shallow, cynical, anti-intellectual remark. Sodium ion batteries are already hitting production. Iron flow and vanadium redox batteries also already exist in the real world. Grid and residential battery installations are happening at a rapidly accelerating pace. Lithium ion battery prices have dropped something like 90% over the last 15 years. Battery technology is improving at dramatic rate, both lithium ion and non lithium ion solutions.
