cost of batteries
 
getting cheaper and cheaper and cheaper
 
for a battery in a typical EV with a range of 300 miles which needs 85 KWH of storage 
 
$3000 with these new Silicon Anodes.....no cobalt or nickel needed
 
which is one fourth  the cost of what they were costing just 2 years ago
 
the batteries in  85 KWH battery pack will weigh only 170 KG.........360 pounds  (520 WH /kg energy density ) 
 
 Most EVs have a miles per kWh rating of 3–4 miles, with very efficient models reaching 4 miles or more and less efficient models reaching around 2.5 miles
 
couple that with your electric motors and the total weight of an EV drive system is well under 1000 pounds......much less than an ICE motor/drivetrain
 
Clunkers are doomed
 
Home storage battery systems............coupled with solar panels... game changer

SILO Silicon as a highly competitive alternative to conventional graphite anodes commonly used in LFP batteries, which currently cost $53 per kWh. The cost reduction achieved with SILO Silicon is due to advanced material science and optimised manufacturing processes. According to the company, Paraclete’s Silo currently offers an energy density of over 520 Wh/kg, “significantly exceeding the capabilities of traditional graphite anodes.”
