Even in the United States, our power grid is shifting to low carbon emissions generation. When you built out renewables, they get used because they are the cheapest way to generate electricity. ๐งช๐ก๐โ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐
If Chinese firms are selling super fast charging, long range driving EVs in Asia, Europe, Africa, Canada, and Central and South America, whereโs the future market for U.S. internal combustion engine vehicles? It may be time to rethink their strategy on EVs. ๐ค ๐งช๐ก๐โ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐

Research grade Lithium-Air batteries already have energy density of 1,200 Wh/kg, which is 3x-4x greater than commercial grade battery storage. To match the effective or final stage energy density of Jet-A batteries need to get to ~6,000 Wh/kg. ๐งช๐๐กโ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐ www.energy.gov/science/bes/...

It's the sum that matters. And using the same data from EMBER-ENERGY, the seasonal maximum for monthly low carbon power generation in the US (wind, water, solar, geothermal and nuclear) has now reached the seasonal minimum for high carbon generation sources (fossil fuels + bioenergy). ๐งช๐ก๐โ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐
A Lithium-Air battery with 12,000 Wh/kg would have 2x to 3x the effective energy density of Jet-A. ๐งช๐๐กโ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐

Some good news - Global low carbon emissions power generation from wind, water, solar & other renewables (excluding bioenergy) have now surpassed all other sources of power generation except coal, which will likely happen in 2026. ๐งช๐ก๐โ๏ธ๐จ๐ง๐ a ๐งต

While batteries have changed everything and are rapidly replacing fossil fuels in power generation and transportation we are still in the early stages of the tech.
It wasn't long ago we were talking about range anxiety for cars and saying batteries didn't work for heavy trucks.
