Consequently, the authors noted, research has focused on developing alternative, cheap, and robust catalysts made from earth-abundant elements. The researchers believe that Ni5P4 should lower the material costs of both electrolyzers and fuel cells, while maintaining the efficiencies of these technologies for electrical conversion.

With subsidies long in place for nuclear, coal and gas in the US along with the cheap cost of production for coal and natural gas, solar is essentially competing with that $0.10/kWh kWh average cost of electricity in the United States and globally. We are already facing serious ramifications of fossil fuel emissions.

None of the sodium Ion batteries are commercial yet, but serious competition for lithium could soon be on the way. During charging, Na ions move from a sodium- and iron-containing cathode through a liquid electrolyte and across a polymer barrier to a hard carbon anode. They both are alkaline metals. First Sodium-Ion EV in 2023?

However, there are a number of formidable challenges facing their commercialization. The solar battery contains three electrodes: a Li-metal anode, an oxygen electrode made from carbon paper and a photoelectrode. The state of the art is to use a solar panel to capture the light, and then use a cheap battery to store the energy.

During the late innings of the ICE-age (as in the Internal Combustion Engine age) it has become clear that feeding gasoline and diesel to the next billion new cars is not going to be easy, or cheap. However, building more coal and gas power plants to make miles for transport is counter-productive if the game plan is to reduce carbon output.

Millions will plug-in their electric vehicles [EV], plug-in hybrids [PHEV] and fuel cell vehicles [FCV] at night when electricity is cheap, then plug-in during the day when energy is expensive and sell those extra electrons at a profit.
