Imagine if we started seriously investing in battery tech at the time the combustion car was invented and hadnt stopped since. We would still have been limited by not having computers for simulation for a long time, but we could probably have gotten to the current level like 20 years ago.

But yes, the future of electricity depends entirely on eco friendly, sustainable and cheap batteries. Its just a matter of time.

batteries didn't make much sense in the past because where do you take the electricity from? combusting coal to generate electricity to charge your car is not much better than just combusting oil directly. now, we have solar. that changes everything.

Where from? The grid, maybe?
