Importantly, the nanofluids are engineered to remain suspended indefinitely, unlike other suspensions—for instance, sand in water. The particles can compose up to 80 percent of the liquid’s weight while leaving it no more viscous than motor oil. In comparison, lithium-ion batteries cost around $138/kWh. Similarly, the U.S.

The electric car features three different battery options, two different Lithium-based (LI) systems – A123Systems and Enerdel as well as a Sodium-Nickel battery Zebra (Mes-Dea). Massive government subsidies are upending commercial considerations. safety requirements. Think has even shown a convertible prototype.
