The technology could fundamentally transform the way electricity is stored on the grid, making power from renewable energy sources such as wind and sun far more economical and reliable. Because some hydroxy-anthraquinones are natural products, there is also the possibility that the electrolyte material can be renewably sourced.

Takashi Moriya, Senior Chief Engineer at Honda R&D, re-iterated Honda’s strategic focus on electrification as the main pathway toward reducing greenhouse gases, and shift to renewable sources of energy. Honda also sees the possibility of a “hydrogen-powered society” based on renewable energy and renewable-energy-generated hydrogen.

Everybody knew then that renewables were unreliable: that wind power fully works less than one-third of the time, and that solar power is unavailable at night (of course) and less efficient on cloudy winter days. So, ironically, renewables have in some ways hastened the decline of nuclear power. This was plain wrong.

Lithium is commonly used for rechargeable batteries, particularly in Electric Vehicles (EVs). With global EV purchases continually rising , the sudden surge in demand has caused consumer concerns about the resultant demand for lithiu m, and the availability of this valuable resource, leading many to ask: will the world run out of lithium?
