A lot of the capacity we'll end up needing will be stationary in nature, where weight isn't nearly as important as energy density, stability, charge/discharge rates, etc. Such installations can be climate-controlled using energy stored in those batteries. Some of the more creative designs end up making about half of the questions you listed more or less irrelevant so that we can focus exclusively on electrical performance.

- uoaei 3y agoTo me it seems that established power generation is the gatekeeper -- with on-demand generation and the entire set of infrastructure behind it, the economic pressures aren't there for stationary storage. Mobile storage was incentivized for other reasons that are divorced from stationary needs.
