    What then for those with battery grade material and Ecograph producing spherical graphite anode material ?

    The next-generation boom

    One new battery technology is solid-state, which replaces not only the graphite anode with one made up of lithium metal but also the liquid electrolyte and separator with one solid piece, usually ceramic, glass or flame-retardant polymer. Taking this approach is Solid Power, a Colorado-based manufacturer of solid-state batteries that received $20 million in Series A financing in 2018. According to company executives, the battery they’re developing leads to at least 50 percent more energy density.
