This is such a dumb analysis - Lithium batteries are used in everything - tools, consumer electronics, medical devices, home and grid storage and all of the sectors that will be using it soon. Not to mention if you want to push larger transport sectors and grid de-carbonization you will need massive GwH batteries with 100kg+ of lithium. We clearly need more solutions, stop pushing lithium batteries like they can solve all the world's energy problems.

"We clearly need more solutions, stop pushing lithium batteries like they can solve all the world's energy problems."

That's right. We need to push natrium based batteries for stationary use cases, like grid storage and reserve the lithium based for mobile use.
