minus-squarexoggy@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down1·3 months agoNo, CATL makes the same wild claims. Just within the last few months they’ve been overselling the capabilities of sodium batteries. https://www.livescience.com/technology/electric-vehicles/new-battery-breakthrough-could-make-electric-cars-and-grid-scale-storage-far-safer The whole industry is polluted with these fluff claims. Of course we want them to be true, but waiting for results to make noise is wiser.
minus-squarePowderhorn@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down1·3 months agoOK, but where are the data that they’re inflating claims? From where I’m looking, they keep iterating.
