Zenn and Eestor and Lockheed Martin

I was reading these links today:

"Zenn has moved because it is the only public way to participate in a privately held company called Eestor that is developing a new technology for energy storage - a sort of cross between a standard battery and an ultracapacitor. I’ve also written about Eestor in the past. Many people have opined that the company’s product is just vaporware, that it will never become real. Others have noted that if the product does work as advertised and can be produced in volume at a reasonable cost (which is part of Eestor’s business plan) it could be a game changer.

Eestor’s new battery would provide huge jolts of energy at a touch plus long length of storage plus very rapid re-charge time and (are you ready) virtually unlimited numbers of recharges. As you can easily imagine, it would be useful in huge numbers of devices, not least hybrid cars. If it is cheap enough, in fact, it might even make hybrid cars cheaper to buy than those with internal combustion engines - not to mention being a lot cheaper to operate.

If all that were to happen, companies that make other sorts of batteries or provide lithium, for example, might not be seen as quite so attractive. Or not. It’s not at all clear whether the Eestor battery would be sufficient by itself or would work in tandem with other energy storage devices."
