Just posted the second part of a series about the future of battery technology. It's mostly focused on the chemistries you can expect to see; high-silicon anodes, high-manganese cathodes, and little bit about CATL's plan for sodium batteries.

@Timmy As the #LFP patents have been expiring, and it uses no nickel, its use has been increasing dramatically (despite giving lower range, and some other disadvantages).

For longer range, one uses, as mentioned, the nickel-based chemistries. These #cathodes are mixed metal oxides, usually in the ballpark of 80% (or higher) nickel, 10% (or lower) #cobalt, and 10% (or lower) #alumium or #manganese.
