“However, there is still room for improvement and one such key area is the power density – how much power can be stored in a certain amount of space – which directly relates to the fast charge ability. Ideally, the charge time for batteries in electric vehicles should be less than 15 minutes, which Prof Chen’s nanostructured anode has proven to do so.”
You could be right you know but I remained skeptical. The main thrust of the article is about how fast it takes to charge. Titanate batteries are well known for that. However, the article failed to mention how dense the battery is going to be. Taken together, I'm not sure whether the journalist understands the challenge of the titanate battery.
