Then you may not be paying attention. Battery costs have been dropping exponentially and we are only starting to really invest capital and scale production. Meanwhile: 1. Solid state batteries, 2. 3D printed metal, 3. Algorithmically optimized design.

Before 2018 battery production was basically negligible. We have only truly started to scale our need for storage in 2018.

Today 3D printed metal is in its infancy, but has truly significant potential. I’m very excited to see how companies like Relativity Space, etc mature this tech and how it will disrupt current manufacturing. Even just giga molding is disruptive, let alone printing which will use significantly less metal and significantly reduce capital investment for manufacturing (i.e. something like AWS for manufacturing).
