>>12056332>Where are we now?More or less perfected Li-ion batteries, but they tend to be volatile and don't live too long. Early stages of solid-state batteries, which live longer, but storage capacity and price are still suboptimal.
>Where are we going?More or less perfected solid-state batteries that store more energy than Li-ion batteries and also don't explode. This will allow for longer range electric vehicles and possibly electric passenger planes. Maybe someday, when we finally manage to get graphene out the fucking lab, we will be able to make even better batteries.
