@thomascrabtree Firstly , this is factually false. We have more than enough Li supply to switch all the vehicles in the world to EV and have more to spare. Secondly, the OP was suggesting for Li alternatives , not Li batteries.

@Marco-hl6gz I think he just wanted to spread lie about Li supply (we actually do enough Li for the entire world) rather than engaging in honest debate.

@benjiunofficial I think I just cut and paste my pervious post: The potential advantage is it should be dirt cheap to manufacture when it reach mass market as the material cost is relatively cheap, at least when compared to Li ion battery. . Of course it do have lower efficiency compared to Li battery but if I was was not mistaken it still have higher efficiency than pump hydro. Another company (Ambri) right now is developing this tech .

@harrickvharrick3957 It have very low energy density compared to molten salt battery (more than tens times), lower efficiency and possibly more expensive pound for pound when you scale it up .

@shahabmos5130 Wait...Wut??

Not really, porotype shows that with good enough thermal insulation , you can keep a constants temperature with very little energy input once the desired temperature have been reached. Of course reaching them in the first place do take quite a lot of energy. The potential advantage is it should be dirt cheap to manufacture when it reach mass market as the material cost is relatively cheap . Of course it do have lower efficiency compared to Li battery.

@Hellsong89 Dude, could you please put some paragraph when elucidating thoughts? It was really straining on the eye to read that wall of text . A few points I would like to address: Surer it would impossible for the electric grid to cope if 100% of vehicle son the road today switch to electric, but the than transition gradual rather than a frantic dahs. . While EV growth is increasing at rapid pace, this growth is still marginal and there is plenty of time for grid t upgrade and meet that demand . For example the currents increase in electricity capacity in the US is actually higher than the increase of EV adoption. The warranties of EV can be misleading when it comes to real world range loss over time. . While it varies frim brand to brand, top of the line EV such as Tesla and possibly Lucid suffer far less ranger degradation than what is written on their warranty. Currents version is expected to keep more than 80% of their range after 20-25 years while requiring far less maintenance than an equivalent ICE. . In contrast any ICE vehicle that follow the same maintenance schedule of a an EV would be scrapped metal at that age.

@brodriguez11000 I think Ambri was using something much cheaper and mundane than that in their prototype.
