A 140-Years-Old Battery Technology Might Change Everything We Know About Energy Storage

Li-Ion batteries power everything today, from tiny gadgets to cars and even airplanes. But for all the benefits that Li-Ion batteries bring to the table, there are tons of problems. These range from the costly and difficult to source materials to safety problems and the damage they cause to the environment. Scientists think they found an alternative that could change everything we know about batteries.

The same company hit up investors for $240 million last year. Wonder why the news release again now?

There are a couple of companies with this rust battery pitch, if true, warehouse sized batteries with shipping container sized cells can provide days of baseload power, not much good for peeking apparently. It's one of several contenders I keep and eye on aluminum graphene technology from down under. Looks good with coin cells under test, could be a game changer.

Always seems to be silver bullets just around the corner.

I recently posted one on a manufacturing breakthrough for solid state batteries and real pragmatic piece of work about reducing carbon between layers while sintering in pure oxygen. It looked applicable to existing processes and will solve a big problem with mass production.

So why is this one the real one but the others previously were not? Have they shown a working model a year after scooping up $240 Million?

I dunno if these people are a scam, but appears to be viable technology that qualified people have confidence in. I haven't looked too deeply into it, but it's large capacity for grid storage and low costs appear to have attracted investors, some of whom are not fools at least!
