Technology has made a lot of advancements, but one critical area has struggled to make huge gains, and that is batteries. Storing energy is critical for so much of our world, but advancements in battery tech have been hard to come by. Advancing battery technology is also important to national security. Today we are talking with a company that is working to make big changes.

I have with me Francis Wang, CEO of Nanograf, a Chicago based company that is making Silicon batteries a reality. So much of battery development has focused on the Cathode, the positive end, and not much has been done with the Anode, or the negative end. By swapping out the graphite Anode for Silicon, we can have denser, longer lasting batteries that don't rely on sourcing materials from adversarial countries.

So let's talk with Francis about the state of the art in battery tech.
