How about the damage that is normal caused by fast charging? Fast charging means high temperature and that is exactly what wears out a battery. In the formula E competition they have to use cooling with liquid nitrogen to protect the battery. I don't see that happen in public charging stations.
Solar panels start to make sense only with high capacity, fast charging batteries. all of that requries silver. Everyone on the planet except some 500,000 silverbugs HATES silver! The most hated asset EVER. Humans love to buy everything , literally everything, just not silver. Nooooo. Please NO. PLEASE. Do not buy any silver! Is worthless and cannot be used for anything. Why God created it? he surely made a giant mistake! Even Fauci existance makes more sense
If you would follow the evolution on battery technology you would know that solid state batteries will probably replace the actual batteries. Solid Power’s high-silicon content batteries would reach 350 Wh/kg. That’s around 90 Wh/kg more than the best lithium cells currently used by cars, or a 35% improvement. Think about that as 35% more range or a 35% lighter battery pack for the same energy density. The company has a roadmap to surpass 400 Wh/kg by 2022. The batteries could retain 82% of their capacity after 1,000 cycles. If a battery pack offers 300 miles of range, that means you can use it for around 300,000 miles and still have a range of 240 mi after that time. It takes more than an hour to recharge current battery packs while it would take roughly 10 minutes to charge an electric vehicle equipped with a solid-state battery. QuantumScape, its noncombustible cell can charge to 80% of capacity in 15 minutes, retain more than 80% of its capacity after 800 charging cycles, and has a volumetric energy density of more than 1,000 watt-hours per liter, nearly double the energy density of commercial lithium-ion cells. QuantumScape has a strategic partnership with Volkswagen. So the question will be: do we still need silver for these batteries?
