24M emerges from stealth mode with new semi-solid Li-ion cell; <$100/kWh by 2020

Green Car Congress

Stealth-mode battery start-up 24M has introduced its new semi-solid lithium-ion cell. By 2020 our battery costs will be less than $100 a kilowatt-hour (kWh). The lithium-ion battery is a brilliant, enabling technology, but its economics are flawed. Those inactive materials are expensive and wasteful. Earlier post.).
