Electric vehicles are catching on, and lithium-ion battery pack and cell prices are declining, despite a global pandemic, a global semiconductor shortage, significant shortages of numerous things, and increased prices on practically everything. In 2010, the average cost of a lithium-ion battery pack was $1,200 per kWh.

As power grids everywhere increasingly rely on intermittent renewable energy, batteries and other forms of energy storage that can even out the bumps in supply and demand are taking on a crucial role. While lithium isn’t exactly in short supply, extracting it from the ground exacts a huge environmental cost. Well, let's think.
