The Solid Truth

摘要

Lithium-ion batteries have captured the imagination of the battery industry worldwide. The success of the technology has been truly amazing as improvements are announced regularly. I am certain that Sony, the lithium-ion inventor company and others closely involved at the time, such as myself, never anticipated the full potential of the system. The lithium-ion battery isn't problem free. The most significant difficulty is battery safety, but the industry is growing so rapidly, that even if that becomes a major roadblock, there will be ways devised to overcome it. After all, we have to protect the technology that lays the golden eggs.
