Elon Musk has confirmed today that the upcoming Tesla Model S Plaid, scheduled for late 2021, will be equipped with the all-new structural battery pack, consisting of the all-new 4680 lithium-ion cells, announced at Tesla Battery... TMC Staff Thread Oct 2, 2020 Batteries Elon Musk Model ...
The deal could involve Glencore supplying as much as 6,000 tons of the metal a year for lithium-ion batteries used in electric cars, source said
I wouldn’t recommend them as a dessert topping, but the Tesla Motors Lithium-Ion cells are not classified as hazardous and are landfill safe. However, dumping them in the trash would be throwing money away, since the battery pack can be sold to recycling companies (unsubsidized) at the en...
Writing angry letters to anyone complaining about the laws of physics and the current electrochemical reality of lithium batteries is not likely to be particularly fruitful (although maybe it will make you feel better?). Yeah, I'm not seeing this as a Tesla specific problem or even anyone's...
have is that there should be an expedited permitting process for anything which is critical to a sustainable energy future. So, it doesn't make sense to put like a coal mine and a sustainable energy battery like lithium mine in the same category. Coal is not of the future, lithium ...
sense to put like a coal mine and a sustainable energy battery like lithium mine in the same category. Coal does not in the future, lithium does. And by the way, you can extract lithium with almost no disturbance to the local environment. So, it’s not actually ugly, nasty mine ...
Batteries that are not toxic to the environment! I wouldn’t recommend them as a dessert topping, but the Tesla Motors Lithium-Ion cells are not classified as hazardous and are landfill safe. However, dumping them in the trash would be throwing money away, since the battery pack can be sol...
Every nut, bolt, and lithium ion cell is mine to do with what I please. Unrelated, but granted there are potential warranty consequences if I do certain things, but it would still be my choice to do so or not and there is nothing Tesla can do to st...
