The battery boom is reviving US graphite mining after decades of dormancy After nearly seventy years of inactivity, US graphite mining is showing signs of revival. Once considered obsolete due to cheap imports, particularly from China, the domestic graphite sector is gaining...

The battery boom is reviving US graphite mining after decades of dormancy #Technology #EmergingTechnologies #Other #GraphiteMining #BatteryBoom #CleanTech

📈 Global grid battery capacity is about to explode.

From ~300 GWh today to 3+ TWh by 2030—a 10x leap in just 5 years.

This isn't just storage—it's the backbone of a new energy system. Solar, wind, AI, EVs… all need it. And it's happening fast.

In 2015, Aussie EVs averaged just ~150 km real-world range. By 2025, that's hit ~380 km. With battery tech scaling fast, 2030 could see avg ranges hit ~520 km—thanks to bigger packs, 800V systems & better efficiency. What was premium in 2020 will be the new baseline. ⚡ #EVFuture #BatteryBoom #LFP

Fossil gas is collapsing in California’s grid: down 25% vs ‘24, 43% vs ‘23. Solar up 18%, batteries up 63% vs ‘24 (213% vs ‘23). Wind+Water+Solar (WWS) now supply 57.6% of all demand YTD. 165 of 210 days hit 100% WWS; 11 in a row. Clean energy is winning big & rapidly. #WWS #Solar #LFP #BatteryBoom

China’s dumping batteries like Oprah gives away cars—95% cost drop in just a few years!
Grid-scale storage is booming. We’re building a future-proof backbone. Why the hell are we trying to downgrade it?
#BatteryBoom #GridRevolution

California obliterates a clean energy record:⚡🔋Batteries discharged 10 GW on May 20, covering 32.5% of evening peak demand—a third of the grid powered by yesterday’s sunshine. 20% was a record last year. Now it’s routine. This isn’t progress—it’s grid revolution. #BatteryBoom #EnergyTransformation

The Battery Boom Is Draining the Andes – And Scientists Say It’s Worse Than We Thought New research reveals that current global water models dramatically overestimate the amount of freshwater available for lithium mining in South America’s Lithium Triangle, a critical hub for the world’s...
