Sodium batteries are rolling out, they’re not as energy dense but use common materials instead of needing to exploit the global south. They’re also way safer; you can puncture the battery and it won’t explode, which is a big deal because it makes transporting them much easier.
The best part is that you can roll them out using existing LiPo infrastructure, just substitute out the lithium and slightly modify a few steps.

I guess Australia is technically the global south…
I mean lets be real here.
Right! I knew I was forgetting something important! Sodium batteries have some potential to help, including as LiPo/Sodium hybrids.
