I'll have to read up on this company and technology. The claims of
capacity are so great, that a natural amount of skepticism is very
warranted. If they can produce such an aluminum battery, I would assume
that it would not be very expensive, since aluminum is rather cheap.
We'll see if anything comes of this.
I read the company's prospectus. It's not just that the aluminum is
light and cheap, according to their graph, the proposed battery stores
way more energy per kilogram-. Another consideration is how many cycles
the battery can go through before it needs to be re manufactured. IMHO,
it is this factor which economically kills a hybrid. I don't recall this
matter being addressed
