$FYI New Battery That Could Be Charged in Seconds Developed at Drexel University
https://www.inc.com/yoram-solomon/a-drexel-university-discovery-could-be-the-tipping.html
This new material Mxene is specifically, again it appears to replace cobalt, it is nano technology therefore thin. It is also in competition with Biosolars’ polymer electrodes. The one thing that is mentioned is that if you want charge a Tesla 3 battery (57 kwh) in a minute you will need to have 3 megawatts of charging capacity available multiply that by x EVs at a charging station and there is some serious electrical storage not to mention the copper used to distribute it. There are and will be more investment opportunities in EVs.
To think that in the 1920s the ICE auto makers succeeded in killing off the electric cars of the day.

$FYI Death Of The Internal Combustion Engine Vehicle
by Matt Bohlsen @sa
Summary
A review of global governments’ and cities’ plans to ban internal combustion engine and diesel vehicles. The World Health Organization confirms diesel fumes are carcinogenic.
Expect diesel vehicles to be banned by 2030, and internal combustion engine vehicles by 2040.
A brief review of the leading EV manufacturers, lithium-ion battery manufacturers, and the lithium/cobalt/graphite miners.
Developments over the past few years have led me to conclude that the death of the internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle will occur by 2040, if not earlier. In this article, I will provide evidence to support this claim from a government perspective. Automakers are naturally responding, as these recent Volkswagen (OTCPK:VLKAF) and Toyota (NYSE:TM) comments show:
