The article doesn’t explain that the lithium supply and the environmental cost to extract the lithium for batteries. It also doesn’t address that there are limited recycling programs for spent batteries. Hydrogen while using green power not just from solar but from wind can be help with production.

This is simply not true.

Redwood and Tesla, just to name two companies, are chomping at the bit *waiting* for the used batteries to start piling in.

Recycling is limited today because so few batteries have been taken out of service, even across all brands. It works.
