Energy storage technologies are all about nasty chemistry. Nasty chemistry is where the energy is. Commercializing the chemistry isn’t easy or everyone would do it.

So what are their substantiated claims for being able to commercialize this successfully and in a safe manner? The website graphics are nice tho.

What is nasty about the way the human body stores its energy?

Tloewald|7 years ago

A healthy human diet is 8700 kJ/ day. A gallon of gasoline has 120,000 kJ.

So, we are very energy efficient. But no so awesome in terms of energy storage density.

Have you ever smelled one of those things?
