      @@fladave99 - The joke is that morons actually thumbed you up. This country is so doomed. A 150kWh battery pack, providing the typical EV's average 4 miles/kWh efficiency, is likely what they're talking about here as this would provide 600 miles per charge. To charge a 150kWh pack in 9 minutes (nominally) would require a 1,000 kW (nominal) charger. If these new batteries are genuinely 500Wh/kg then this battery pack will be only half the weight of today's best Li-ion batteries. If using the older 400V charging architecture this would require about 2,500 amps. If using the newer 800V charging architecture this would require about 1,250 amps. Except for Tesla's mega chargers (for their semi) most available EV charging stations presently offer between 150kW and 350kW charging power so these would require upgrading. But 62,000 amps?

      China’s lead on EV battery innovation has not slipped an inch
      Insights from Nikkei Asia, TechCrunch, CNN
      The world is lagging behind China on EV battery innovation to the extent that global manufacturers are barely able to compete.
      Japanese auto giant Nissan, for instance, last month announced a “breakthrough” in the development of solid-state batteries - light alternatives with longer range compared to traditional lithium-ion EV batteries.
      But China beat them to the punch. In April, EV maker Nio became the first manufacturer to commercially roll out solid-state batteries in their cars, complete with the promise that they are fully replaceable. Meanwhile, China also opened its first large-scale sodium-ion battery energy storage station, which could pave the way for next-gen EV batteries that do not rely on scarce, pricey lithium.
      The race underscores the concern in Europe and the US that China faces little real competition when it comes to EVs.

A true 69% ICE that reduces weight instead of adding it will produce average real-world MPG of 120-160 and will beat the EV in every single category soundly with nowhere to go.

    Great info. It's been leaked out these solid state batteries floated by Samsung will consist of a lot of silver which explains it's compactness and long life and range. But if this is the case, with some people putting numbers out like a kilo of silver per battery, this would limit how many batteries could be manufactured as there won't be enough silver to supply this need. So you would then be correct in projecting no mass production by 2030. It will be expensive and it will be limited to luxury and high performance vehicles.

    Losses in a wire is via the formula current squared times resistance. Pushing very high current through a wire will increase charging losses. So there is a tradeoff for this super fast charging, and the cables will have to be water cooled if you are going to push this much current through them. Also semiconductors are not great at high current, so the DC to DC converter will also be wasting power.

    Great insight I not yet heard about, so thanks for that!
    One thing no one seems to talk about are the issues that imply we may not see 600 mile batteries out of manufacturer decisions based on usage statistics, rather than hopeful dreams of ideology. They aren't stating the actual size or weight of the batteries, so we must assume they are comparing the typical current battery to an equivalent physical size. (If the power density & price increase but the weight drops, the only constant remaining is volume.) Current car manufacturers know, that consumers readily accept, demonstrated by purchasing, 200 to 400 miles range. So, based on this, if the new solid state batteries hold 2x the charge in the same volume, the manufacturers are simply going to use 1/2 the batteries to maintain the same range as is current while reducing battery weight/volume/and now cost. If the new solid stat was 2x as expensive, and only 1/2 as much is used, then net gain as far as price & mileage appears to be no change. However, due to the volume & weight decrease, the cars are lighter (an additional mileage gain) and easier/cheaper to manufacture. These changes should further reduce the car costs due to manufacturing rather than battery cost. I'm sure the "long range" option in some vehicles may provide those 2x gains at 2x the price, but most people use cars locally or regionally and don't need 400+ miles on a charge. I'm referring to the people (myself included) who refill their petrol only 1x per week.
    I'm hoping I'm way off as I'd love to charge my car every 2 weeks and know that if we all could do that, the grid may actually support all of us. But knowing manufacturing and marketing done by auto companies, I don't see these ranges falling into consumer hands. Use on semi trucks for long hauls is another story all together!

    THE RANGE IS TOTALLY IRRELEVANT. It means NOTHING.
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give us the KWH's per KG ie The energy density. That is the figure we need and the charge rate 2/3/4/5 C ????

      Might be better if you listened to the actual video before going off half cocked

      Range means nothing because a battery 2x the size goes twice as far?
