Israel based battery startup StoreDot has partnered with electric vehicle company Polestar (NASDAQ: PSNY) to develop a rapidly charging silicon based battery.
The problem I have with all of this …Is we are already at the limit for charging at home. It is not the car battery it is the capacity of the home power connections.
And… the high capacity DC charging systems are not as prevalent as needed.
Today it is about the chargers, not so much the battery.
Yes a dramatically more efficient car will help… but these articles are all about batteries - and every bit does help. These articles I believe slow down adoption, by leading people to think a great improvement is just around the corner… “I better wait”
