everything about energy production
How is it "exclusive" when I read this prediction every week?
The research they're reporting on hasn't been shown to others yet. The researcers carried out an analysis of patent data.
The researcers carried out an analysis of patent data.
And that's useful/accurate how?
That's an exercise for the reader
For the last 5 years..
Well, today they are actually in production, while 5 years ago they were in laboratories.
mmm tastier batteries
Oooooooookay. We'll see.
So one of the disadvantages of Lithium-Ion batteries is its reactivity and proclivity for explosions/thermal runaway.
I would imagine sodium is even more reactive, no? Might be worth the engineering/safety challenges if the storage is better/comparable, and the cost is cheaper.
For all I've heard, sodium batteries are actually more safe and can even be pierced or crushed with no fires/explosions occurring.
After all, they don't use pure metallic sodium.
The sodium used is part of a compound and not pure sodium. Sodium ion batteries have been shown to be less susceptible to explosions/thermal runaway.
short answer: no
Based on thunderf00t's teaching this is bs
I'm unfamiliar with that.
