Lithium and the new energy revolution with Lukasz Bednarski

Lukasz Bednarski talks about his new book “Lithium: The Global Race for Battery Dominance and the New Energy Revolution” with show host Gene Tunny in Economics Explored episode 113. The blurb for Lukasz’s book reads:“A global energy revolution is unfolding before our eyes: ever-growing numbers of electric vehicles on our roads, laptops that last all day on a single charge and solar panels on our roofs, all reliant on lithium-ion batteries. This revolution is happening at breath-taking speed, with the potential to completely transform key industries and the way we live. For the first time in history, we can now actually store this green energy we talk so much about. Often referred to as ‘the new oil’, lithium allows large amounts of energy to be squeezed into a very small space.”About this episode’s guest - Lukasz BednarskiLukasz Bednarski is a battery materials analyst, founder of the lithium industry portal Lithium Today and a former commodity trader.Links relevant to the conversationLithium: The Global Race for Battery Dominance and the New Energy Revolution by Lukasz BednarskiAmazon page for Lukasz’s bookHow Tesla’s Battery Mastermind Is Tackling EV's Biggest ProblemAre aviation biofuels ready for take off?Thanks to the show’s audio engineer Josh Crotts for his assistance in producing the episode. Please get in touch with any questions, comments and suggestions by emailing us at [email protected].
