This is wrong about single phase.Realistically, it's not the batteries that are holding back car charging times, it's the source of electricity.
It takes over 24 hours to charge a tesla at home on 240v, or 6-7 hours if you have three phase.
According to Tesla, fast chargers can already recharge faster than what you've listed for the Sodium Ion battery with the current battery technology. The limiting factor is how much electricity you have on hand, and the general answer is 'not enough'.
The main useful advance in batteries will be if they can store the same energy in a lighter battery.
The marketing may sound good, but it only fools some people, not the ones with lots of $$$ to invest who do their homework.
It's irrelevant as 7kw is still nowhere near the 200kw required to recharge a 100kwH battery in 30mins at home. Unless Sodium Ion or any other alternative is smaller, lighter, safer and cheaper than the current Lithium based batteries then there will still be demand for lithium.This is wrong about single phase.
Single phase you can have up 7kw of power. Takes about 10 hours to charge 0-100 for a standard Model 3. Most charge 20-80 for battery longevity reasons which takes 5 hours.
(Yes if you have single phase on "trickle charge" which is your standard 10amp wall plug it takes 24hours. But most Australian houses are single phase set ups, all you need to do is install a dedicated circuit to your mains with a 32amp circuit breaker, and the correct charger)

Mute, I suspect the vast majority of AVZ investors get where you are coming from, and more than likely feel exactly the same way you do.
Many of us thought this was going to be sorted a year ago, then possibly by the end of 2024, and then maybe the 2nd week of April, now sometime in the future......well I'm waiting on the throw away line to be used..... "how longs a piece of string" to also be thrown into the mix.
My sympathies go out to anyone who took on any debts during this period (It did cross my mind at one point, hwevr, decided concrete boots arent my thing) in the belief that this shit show would have ended by now.
There's always a downside to being an optimist, leason learnt.
Good luck to all.
I've given you likes when others have bagged you because I've seen validity in your arguments.All timelines up to this point have come to nothing .China influence will push Manono case through the courts for years while they continue develop north . Felix does not have power to go against China . DRC will have to fight in court as front for China with China paying all the legal expense. DRC officials and politicians have become very rich because of Chinese . They don't care about DRC just about themself.
Don’t tempt fate

What rhymes with VodkaDon’t tempt fate
At ICSID we "gotcha"!What rhymes with Vodka
But your normal transmissions ARE rants.What the actual fuck is this???

I mean fuck me
Pretty hard to advance a fucking project when they don't grant the fucking licence after completing all pre-requisites which no-one fucking else had done
Makes my blood boil reading shit like that
Rant over
Normal transmissions will resume......imminently
How's life on the wagon Mr Nut?What the actual fuck is this???

IIRC previous articles didn't mention RIO already having meetings with DRC gov? So that's new info that hints at how progressed things could be behind the scenes![]()
