I think we're past due for a major technological breakthrough in energy storage that 1) increases energy density, 2) decreases max charge/discharge time, and 3) is more sustainable than, say Lithium.

With how much R&D seems to be pouring into this right now, I have at least hope.

I remember hearing about the development of solid-state batteries a few years ago and I have been anxiously awaiting any news regarding the concept since.

There are battery banks using solid state that are shipping today!

Yeah, that was a bit of a disappointment. When I saw the first video from Undecided, I was really hyped that solid state batteries are actually here at last. I guess we’ll just have to wait a bit longer to see if it’s actually true.
