“[Our batteries] cannot burn, they are full of water,” he said. “And when they dry out, they are fire retardant.” The batteries also do not use heavy metals or toxic chemicals.
“Whitacre said that the company should be able to sell Aquion batteries capable of powering a typical single family home for between $1,000 and $3,000, depending on the size, once the company is working at full production in the next year or two. Those batteries will last for about 3,000 cycles, or 3,000 days and nights. ~ CNBC
