Next year (2027) mark 5 years of Russo Ukrainian war which in project management standpoint is where the long term adjustment caused by the war start to kick in.

And one of them is Toyota-Sumimoto-Idemitsu Kosan SSB partnership.

Yes people will say that Toyota will delay it yada yada yada but consider this:

Japan only have ~1 year of SPR after Epic Fury which just in time of Toyota not delayed Lexus rollouts.

And this isn’t taking into account of Toyota largest manufacturing facilities is not in Japan but in Toyota NA.

This also doesn’t take into account that Gulf coast refinery sulphuric acid output dwarf idemitsu kosan output.

And this does not take into account that Chevron will begin mining lithium at NA at the same time.

The advantage of Solid State Battery is this:

It’s the highest energy density battery to date because of one simple fact: it’s harder for Solid fuel to catch fire than liquid fuel and those fire to spread hence you need less insulators, etc.

Enabling range that competed with Diesel Engine (not just Gasoline) on range/ charging time & battery weight.

And it’s not just that.
This also revolutionize power storage (making home battery more practical & rendering diesel generator almost obsolete overnight) & most importantly Electronics (15 minutes battery charge that last for a day & less likely to catch fire than liquid battery is always welcome).

Been watching Caleb Hammer shorts recently and it got me thinking.

You know what I find hilarious.

Not just average Americans that’s bad at personal finance but visibly upper middle class also dogshiet at finance thanks to lifestyle inflation (6$ seedless baby cucumber plz).

But the tiny percentage of savings that they managed to pull up right out of their asses can fund the most expensive endavor of all:

Inventing entirely new paradigm shifting shiet.

Hence why average Americans should wear “uniquely stupid Americans” as a badge of honor.

1. Bro forget that in his book he already stated that US IS A NET PRODUCT EXPORTERS (and like a massive one at that).

2. Bro forget to took into account that biofuels is a thing whether for good or ill (especially in places like US, Brazil & Indonesia).
