What's the Best Form of Energy Storage? Spoiler: It's Complicated
Let's cut to the chase - when Elon Musk called lithium-ion batteries "the new oil" in 2016, he wasn't entirely wrong... but he wasn't entirely right either. The quest for the best form of energy storage resembles dating apps: different options work better for different needs. Today we'll unpack why your "perfect match" depends on location, budget, and whether you're powering a smartphone or an entire city.

Why Form Energy's $450M Series B Funding Is Sparking a Storage Revolution
When Massachusetts-based long-duration storage firm Form Energy closes Series B funding at $450 million this month, even Elon Musk's Twitter feed went quiet for a beat. Why? Because their iron-air batteries promise to store electricity for 100 hours at $20/kWh - roughly the cost of a Netflix subscription that could power your home for four rainy days.
