Others solid battery types are nickel-cadmium and sodium-sulphur, while zinc-air is emerging. Energy storage with hydrogen, which is still emerging, would involve its conversion from electricity via electrolysis for storage in tanks. Batteries encompass a range of chemistries.

How the transition from graphite to silicon anode batteries will revolutionize the EV industry

Charged EVs

Nickel-cadmium batteries from 30 or 40 years ago got replaced by nickel-metal-hydride batteries. And fairly quickly, nickel-metal-hydride got replaced by traditional lithium-ion batteries. For example, in the United States somehow EVs have become a political conversation.
