For this to occur, though, the University of Illinois will first have to prove that their technology scales to larger battery sizes, and that the production process isn’t prohibitively expensive for commercial production. Here’s hoping.
Not yet. It would be nice to have lighter power dense batterer for many applications. The recharge capabilities sound good too.
