[QUOTE="wilberforce15, post: 4576806, member: 5053"] Never. Lithium batteries were discovered by 40 years ago, and half a dozen better battery types are on the table. It just takes a while to move from research to widespread commercial use. Lithium batteries were discovered in the 70s and first used commercially in the 90s. That's just how it goes. The best replacement would be a sodium ion solid state battery, which would have infinite raw materials available, be much cheaper, and is energy dense enough you'd start seeing battery powered commercial short haul airliners.
