With calcium 2,500 times more abundant than lithium, battery offers viable option with theoretically comparable energy density, Fudan University scientists say in paper for Nature.
There is a lot of science happening but adoption will never happen overnight. There’s many potential alternative chemistries but they need time and money to mature. Lithium batteries took decades to mature. Calcium and sodium batteries definitely don’t match “never hear about again”.
Oh cool another magical battery technology that we will never hear about again
