    A little pedantic note, LiPo is still a type of Li-Ion (maybe I got that right)

    and the bigger recent breakthrough was LFP (Lithium iron phosphate / LiFePO4)

    And probably safe to call Sodium-Ion and solid state the next big phases of development

      LFP is actually a relatively old battery technology, it’s only now that the patent is expired that it’s starting to breakthrough (outside of China, they somehow got a license if I understand it correctly).
