Initial target markets are mass transit systems (both for recycling the kinetic energy of trains and trams and to allow discontinuous electrification to reduce infrastructure costs) and electric power stabilization for renewable energy applications. Continuous cycling with no detriment to performance or reduction in life.

In Li-ion batteries, Li ions (Li + ) leave the cathode during charging and move through the electrolyte and separator to intercalate into the anode. Source: DOE, ALBAA 2008. As the technology gets fixed, the anode is more of an issue related to fast charge. Mini-cells” Source: LG Chem, ALBAA 2008. Click to enlarge.

The breakthrough could revolutionize electric car battery technology and pave the way for ultra-fast charging electric vehicles in as little as two years. When the team tested the newly-coated cathode, they discovered it could be charged and discharged in as little as 9 seconds. by RSS or sign up by email. Herron makes a valid point.
