And how about this Aussie development? The University of NSW in conjunction with a Japanese Uni have “identified a new type of positive electrode material that could lead to incredibly durable solid-state batteries.”

Keeping up with all these developments would be a full-time job.

Huge potential if it works, but the electrodes are only part of the issue with solid state batteries, at this stage the discharge / recharge cycles are much much lower than conventional electrolytes.

A big plus for solid state is that it's likely to be far less flammable / explosive if shorted or damaged.

For static batteries, for generation storage, buildings and homes, flow batteries are still likely to become king.
