Lithium-ion not out of the running
Monday, March 6th, 2006Here’s a little article at Wired.com about A123 Systems’ new lithium-ion product. The gains are impressive — double the energy density, non-volatile, etc… And the product is already making its way into powertool products. It’s a reminder that there are many other energy storage breakthroughs happening out there, and while EEStor’s appears one of the most impressive so far, it’s comforting to know we’ve got some solid contenders in the pipeline.
