Comment on New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater

TBF, there are a lot of “battery breakthroughs” that turn out to just be hot air. Battery technology had made tremendous progress though and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

hot air.

No, that’s a different type of battery.

There actually is not a lot of room for improvement. Highest energy will still be limited to lithium chemistry because of the periodic table.

  That’s a limit on gravimetric energy density. There are plenty of other parameters that can be improved.

    You don’t know that. This is chemistry, not Moore’s stupid law.
