Electrifying these commercial vehicles will be potentially even more important than passenger vehicles for reducing carbon emissions and for cleaning up local air pollution. Battery-powered commercial vehicles also highlight the power of the lithium-ion battery in a unique way. Tesla's Model Y is cool.

In the cleantech and climate tech arena, I often see pitches focused on tackling some big, nebulous problem such as “solving the climate crisis” or “eliminating pollution.” Or maybe you are presenting a new lithium-ion battery anode chemistry. Very cool, but how does it compare on energy density, safety, charge rate, and cycle life?

Though it is hard to link the exact source of the particulate matter and NOx emissions - cars and other industries also pollute - it is a fact that outdoor air pollution is a major cause of death and disease globally. But the pollution caused by burning marine fuels are directly linked to hundreds of thousands of deaths each year.
