This makes hydrogen from methane using electricity, but without CO2. It uses microwaves at 2.45 GHz. from a magnetron. https://www.rechargenews.com/energy-transition/-we-will-make-zero-co2-hydrogen-from-natural-gas-so-cheaply-we-could-give-it-away-for-free-/2-1-1075224
2021-08-09 Breakthrough In Battery Technology
He talks about developing batteries taking a long time – years – because it’s like cooking: you put things together and then taste it, to see how it works. They have automated some of the procedures, but it’s still time consuming to do all the lab work to find the right chemistry. That is apparently
