According to Wikipedia: ATP + H2O → AMP + PPi ΔG° = −45.6 kJ/mol (−10.9 kcal/mol) And at 507.18g/mol + 18g/mol for the water, that's only about 87J/g, which

According to Wikipedia:
ATP + H2O → AMP + PPi ΔG° = −45.6 kJ/mol (−10.9 kcal/mol)
And at 507.18g/mol + 18g/mol for the water, that's only about 87J/g, which is worse than lithium ion batteries.
