      Oh dear! Tomorrow's World was never this good. It had too many people making the programme and the goodies were more PR pieces than investigative journalism. Can you think of one thing on Tomorrow's World that you can remember now? Blue Peter was far more memorable, even EastEnders but not Tomorrow's World. I think FC is done with true passion, the presenters are not mere hired hands.

      @@martinwray7001 Nobody watches TV any more. It is on in the background but people don't engage with it like they used to. There was a time when everyone shared a conversation about what they saw on 'Life on Earth' the night before or even developments in 'Dallas'. I don't think we will be going back to the days of four channels, with three of them having something good to offer. The gig is up and I prefer being able to indulge in things like FC online with a decent comments thread. The TV was oft shouted at but it never heard you and 'Points of View' was somewhat filtered. TV budgets were big - there is no 'Life on Earth' grade show on UA-cam so yes it is a travesty in a way.

      informative ??? really ?? this is the Shell-BP- fossil fuel disaster all over again.
      here is some info they wont give you:
      they pump water into the ground to extract the lithium.
      on average, 1 gram of lithium in 1 liter of water. One electric car battery needs 15 kilo of lithium.
      So one EV battery uses 15 million liters of water, and that is just for the lithium.
      Big mining companies bribe, bully and bulldozer their way in, and our planet and local populations get fucked in the ass.
      fully charged should do a show on this topic. Start with Portugal where this disaster is about to take place. (5th largest lithium reserve on the planet)

    • @earlpottinger671
      @earlpottinger671 5 років тому +8

      Why now? The demand for the batteries for secondary uses means there will be no stock available to run a recycling center for the next ten to twenty years.
      If you don't include the LEAF, car batteries last fifteen to twenty years before they show enough loss to make it even looking like them may be recycled.
      And at that point, there are plenty of buyers to create stationary storage systems.

      I.E,. "so even Paul can get (most of) it" Just wondering aloud why there isn't an 18650 or 21700-sized cell that is square-shaped, sort of like the prismatic cell.

    • @andrewzamorski4950
      @andrewzamorski4950 5 років тому +1

      I think the reason is that one of the main advantages of prismatics is that they can be built with a lot of surface area giving a potential cooling advantage. If they are in a cube or a deep rectangle you would need to cool on more than one side making the pack more complicated to build and therefore more expensive. Also a cuboid is structurally less strong than a cylinder so either more packaging of the cell or pack would be needed when compared to using a cylinder to maintain structural integrity and safety. @@OwenzDaddy

      "..but the company now is aiming to ship its 10-foot cube commercial units in 2020 for proof-of-concept field deployments....."
      (Won't exactly fit in a leaf?)
      Even in static storage it seems "cheap" is becoming a factor, rather than size, or volume.
      When sodium (cheap/ safe) cells are available, does liquid metal stand up?

      "Liquid Metal Battery" Do you want T-1000's? Because this is how you get T-1000's....

    • @gregcollins3404
      @gregcollins3404 5 років тому

      Right, their technology is more suited to large scale rather than portable applications, but I'd really like to see something like this for residential solar. They say the Liquid Metal Battery could be "cheap as dirt" and extremely durable and long lasting. They've been at it for ten years though and haven't seen any product become available or much news lately so am wondering.....

      @@rogerstarkey5390 Aquion tried to sell fully recyclable, harmless, unkillable (can sit flat forever with no damage) sodium static batteries but went bust (hmm seems they got bought up and are still going, but now in China). They had quite low power density and very low energy density. The MIT liquid cell should last pretty-much forever in cycle terms. Not sure what energy density they've ended up with, and there is the issue that there is very large standby loss because it has to run at >400C. This may not matter for grid stabilistion use as you just run the grid delivery through them to keep them toasty.
      It's still not at all clear how the sodium, liquid metal, vanadium flow, metal-air, lithium and good-old lead-acid families are going to divvy up market share. Only lead acid, lithium and (just) vanadium flow are successful so far. It seems to be very hard to get enough manufacturing volume to compete with a new chemistry (I think low volume/high cost killed Aquion - maybe the new owners will succeed).
