"move the detached lithium toward the anode during discharging, and these motions are faster under higher currents,” says study author Fang Liu. “So we added a fast, high-current discharging step right after the battery charges, which moved the isolated lithium far enough to reconnect it with the anode. This reactivates the lithium so it can participate in the life of the battery.”New Atlas: Charging tweak revives lost lithium to boost battery capacity & lifespan.

How about a fast accelerating drive just after Supercharging? That should move those worms!"move the detached lithium toward the anode during discharging, and these motions are faster under higher currents,” says study author Fang Liu. “So we added a fast, high-current discharging step right after the battery charges, which moved the isolated lithium far enough to reconnect it with the anode.

Interesting, thanks.
This should be doable on Superchargers, hopefully taking into account each individual battery or group of cells. Especially useful for heavily supercharged cells. It might give some old Teslas a helping hand.
A bit late, but good news. We need a lot more of it.Coal Will Equal 85% Of U.S. Electric Generating Capacity Retirements In 2022 - CleanTechnica

Cool article, and I get why it's broken down by GW, but I think it's missing some information. Unless I missed it, nowhere in the article does it say how many coal plants are being retired. This is all by GW. So we don't know if that represents 1 coal plant, 10 plants, or 100 plants. We don't know to what degree of output the average coal plant differs NG, nuclear, etc. Depending on output, more of non-coal sources could be closed.Coal Will Equal 85% Of U.S. Electric Generating Capacity Retirements In 2022 - CleanTechnica

Shell’s Massive Carbon Capture Plant Is Emitting More Than It’s Capturing
A new Global Witness report found that it has the same carbon footprint per year as 1.2 million gas-powered cars.www.vice.com
From oilprice.com...touting geothermal is a logical political strategy for them, given their current industry.Would be nice if the fact heat is a terrible... TERRIBLE source of electricity would become common knowledge.
When Will The U.S. Tap its Massive Geothermal Energy Potential?
Never... never in anyway that makes an impact. Because economics. And economics matters.
