This prototype uses a lead-acid mixture. Li-ion batteries have been around since 1991, but only in 2008 were applied to cars. In 2008, the Tesla Roadster hit the road, ushering in a new era for EVs. Until then, batteries were made with nickel and cadmium, or lead acid. Yet, it was a revolution, nonetheless.

The study builds on a 2011 effort which looked into the six key applications of the Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan: wind, solar, nuclear fission, bioenergy, carbon capture and storage (CCS) and the electricity grid. These include: The implications of missing or exceeding targets for the uptake of low carbon technologies.
