The Pot of Gold for Lithium Sulfur Batteries

The true least cost system for a lithium-based rechargeable battery is sulfur. Sulfur is cheap, ubiquitous, abundant and already produced to the tune of about 77 million tons a year. Charlotte Hamilton is the CEO of KONEMEX, working to commercialize lithium batteries with sulfur cathodes. The company was founded in 2014 using technology from Cornell, Stanford, Berkeley Lab, and elsewhere.
