WHAT IS IT?
Now, with the new battery technology engineered by cleantech startup Nanode, the flying car era could be much closer. There are also plenty of earthbound applications for the batteries.
WHY IMPORTANT
The startup is developing a next-generation high-capacity tin anode for lithium and sodium-ion batteries that can double the amount of a battery’s functionality and expand what a battery can do. “It’s going to open up and enable a whole new generation of battery technology.”
