@simsa03 What I don’t see in this article is any plans to locate these batteries 🔋 away from populated areas and important resources. A fire 🔥 is rare, but when it happens, people in nearby communities are told to “shelter in place” as chemical laden smoke 💨 swirls around and in their homes, as if the building will magically detoxify the air they breathe; completely ignoring any danger of residual compounds getting into the lakes, rivers, and groundwater. No wonder people are spooked.
Even anti NIMBYs would oppose it under such circumstances.
Good article. Looks like they did lots of research.
