I wonder if we will run out of battery materials in a hundred years, then what? | ||

Are we burning the battery materials into gases and sending the results into the atmosphere? No, then we are unlikely to run out of materials on a primary or secondary, recycled, basis. Not to mention the diversity of choices available for chemistries and storage | ||

we might end up switching to sodium batteries for the grid, they’re heavier so not great for cars, but otherwise they’re fine | ||

Impossible as there are so many chemistries, but hopefully we don't run out of water for pumped hydro. | ||

If we run out of Saltwater then we have very different problems at our hand. | ||

It is far more likely to run out of practical fissile materials than it would be to run out of electrochemical materials. | ||
