It's Holocaust Memorial Day and Musk & his American 🇺🇸 oligarchy bros think they need to teach us Germans that the right-extremist AFD is the only party that will "save Germany" right before the election & that we should be proud of 🇩🇪 history, let go of the "remembrance cult"
This makes me sick!
Vernunft isch back im BMBF 😎💪
Interested in thermal #energystorage? 🔥
My colleague Marc Linder - group leader at DLR in that field - is an incredibly good #science communicator
You can listen to one of his public lectures here:
www.dlr.de/de/das-dlr/s... (German)
HEIZEN FÜRS KLIMA (heating for the #climate)? A XMAS LECTURE
So many inspiring projects e.g. his collaboration with the natural history Museum in Berlin (again in German:
www.museumfuernaturkunde.berlin/de/wissensch...)
and other stuff on his website (m.dominik-eulberg.de)
All aimed at spreading awareness for biodiversity 💚
I could listen to DOMINIK EULBERG talking about the wonders of #nature 🌍 for hours & I just discovered he has a new podcast where he does exactly that wunderkammerpodcast.de (in German) ❤
... he's also my favorite techno DJ & an inspiration for fusing #science (he's a biologist) & art

According to today's hearing in 🇩🇪 parliament, the ministry of research & education decided to stop funding battery research 🔋 because
⏹️ the "open technology development" ideology forbids prioritizing technologies over others
⏹️ no fundamental research necessary anymore on batteries
When TIME selected me for the Time 100 Climate list this year, they asked me: What is the single most important action you think the public, or a specific company or government (other than your own), needs to take in the next year to advance the climate agenda?
Here was my reply... 🧵
🔌💡
Interesting. Is the power requirement of etrucks really that high that graphite-based chemistries don't suffice?
Do you know how much is the energy density difference?
I need some positive news! 🙏🏻 Please tell me that some of these are still happening (and moving forward) #battchat

Am selben Tag Frau Ministerin a.D. mit folgender Aussage 👇🏻 wie nennt man solch ein Phänomen noch gleich?
Anhörung im Bundestag zur Zukunft der 🔋-Forschung in 🇩🇪 macht nochmal deutlich, wer für die Kürzungen im BMBF verantwortlich ist (für wen es nicht ohnehin schon klar war..) 👇🏻

Ok then. Let's give it one more try, I guess 🤷🏻
Can't wait to hear about the outcome 😎
Wunder #Batterie? 🔋 Wichtiger:
Es läuft "nicht darauf hinaus, dass eine Zellchemie die beste ist & andere verdrängen wird. Vielmehr werden je nach Preissegment unterschiedl. Zusammensetzungen mit ihren jeweiligen Vor- und Nachteilen zum Einsatz kommen" 👍

Inspirierende und augenöffnende Podcast Folge über die Vielfalt an Denkweisen, an Gefühlen und Arten die Welt wahrzunehmen! 🌈

Still room für development ... 😐
And on more: Great news! After NMC-based lithium-ion & lithium metal (Cuberg), Northvolt 🇪🇺 adds sodium-ion to its portfolio (collaboration with Altris, prussian-white cathode). Technology delivers best-in-class 160Wh/kg but unfortunately no info on timeline.

Here we go! First large-scale manufacturing of sodium-ion battery 🔋 cells announced by Chinese 🚗⚡leader BYD
Goal is an output of 30GWh/a, enough for 1-2 Mio electric "microcars" (15-30 kWh battery). Unfortunately no timeline, but I guess 2024/2025

So, where are the battery people on here? What do we call ourselves? BatterySky?

Nice graph from the new Intercalation Station newsletter showing the various #battery 🔋 companies claiming ultra-fast charging below 10min
Very different approaches - from material-level (silicon-, niobium-based anodes) to electrode (3D-structured) and cell design (pre-heating)
