    Yeah, yeah. I have heard of new super batteries for well over a decade now. Nothing ever seems to come of it.

      Not this time. They are already being used. They are not super batterie though and won’t to replace Lithium batteries any time soon, but they have their niches.

      The main advantage over Lithium batteries is that sodium is an abundant ressource.

      Of course it does. But it always happens about ten years after the breakthrough, and we barely notice, because batteries just get a bit smaller, so the capacity stays the same.
