Example of a lithium-water rechargeable battery. Researchers at the University of Texas, including Dr. John Goodenough, are proposing a strategy for high-capacity next-generation alkali (lithium or sodium)-ion batteries using water-soluble redox couples as the cathode. In 2009, US Energy Secretary Steven Chu named Dr. John B.

It occurred in the wake of the California electricity crisis of 2000 and 2001, when mismanaged deregulation, market manipulation, and environmental catastrophe combined to unhinge the power grid. The need for large-scale electrochemical energy storage as a grid-stabilizing source of demand disappeared.

Demand for the element is so great for applications including electric vehicles, portable electronic devices, and stationary energy units, that lithium mining companies are struggling to keep up. The big issue with sodium-ion batteries is that they can store only about two-thirds of the energy of Li-ion batteries of equivalent size.

Moving goods by road consumes about 50% of all diesel produced; 80% of the global net increase in diesel use since 2000 comes from road freight. Long-haul heavy trucks generate most of road freight’s energy needs and CO 2 emissions. Furthermore, road freight activity is set to more than double from 2015 to 2050.

And yet, what about recharging? Will we have a universal standard for charging? That means I'd have to recharge at least once. Or are you getting in the car and doing 300 miles at 75 miles an hour, where aerodynamic drag consumes more energy than actually moving your two- or three-ton vehicle along the highway?
