Toyota says it has made a technological breakthrough that will allow it to halve the weight, size and cost of batteries, in what could herald a major advance for electric vehicles.
The world’s second largest carmaker was already pursuing a plan to roll out cars with advanced solid-state batteries, which offer benefits compared with liquid-based batteries, by 2025.
On Tuesday, the Japanese company said it had simplified production of the material used to make them, hailing the discovery as a significant leap forward that could dramatically cut charging times and increase driving range

Cost?
What's the cost in not going to some other form of energy, the planet.

Climate change is a hoax to gain more control.

Man caused climate change is unquestionably a hoax. Catnip for dummies.

Tell us how men influenced all the climate changes this earth has been through when there was no industry!!

That is great news in reducing toxic chemicals both for the environment and for people who need to handle the chemicals. But since we have been in a grand solar minimum which so far has lasted more than 2 solar cycles with no indication of ending anytime soon (last one lasted nearly a century), climate alarmists need to find something else to obsess over. Maybe they should "follow the science" for a change.

Well, you’re going to be paying for it so knock yourself out trying to fight the sun.

Yup. Science alarmists don't look at climate data going back before the industrial revolution. Or any data which doesn't support the narrative.
I recently was trying to explain grand solar minimums to a college graduate. She smuggly said it was due to all the CO2 emissions. When I reminded her it was the sun and nothing we do on earth will effect the sun, she disagreed and continued to blame the solar minimum on CO2 emissions. She also didn't know that due to less solar radiation reaching the earth, it cools and doesn't warm. She even had the gall to tell me to follow the science.

Maybe they will soon learn that nuclear is the only way to get us anywhere near their perceived goal.

At today's level of technology, absolutely. Maybe someday someone will discover how to make various devices now only talked about in science fiction. But for today it is nuclear.

Why the cavalier attitude towards those who struggle to make ends meet. Affordability is critical
