No one has mapped more territory than NASA. But even their sensors rely on batteries.

Electric vehicles promise a cleaner future, but battery performance remains one of the biggest bottlenecks. In this episode, Tim Holme, co-founder and CTO of QuantumScape, takes us inside the company's mission to build a new generation of solid-state lithium-metal batteries that could change the game for EVs and beyond. Tim explains why the industry has been stuck with incremental improvements to lithium-ion for decades and why replacing the graphite anode with lithium metal could unlock longer range, under-15-minute charging, and improved safety. He shares how QuantumScape's ceramic separator prevents the dendrite formation that has held back lithium-metal designs, and why this innovation can make batteries both more energy-dense and safer, even under extreme conditions. We also discuss the company's recent “COBRA” manufacturing breakthrough, which has increased separator production speed by roughly 200 times. This leap is key to scaling production for automotive partners like Volkswagen's PowerCo and Murata. Tim outlines how QuantumScape is approaching commercialization through a capital-light licensing model, avoiding the pitfalls that have caused other U.S. battery innovations to be commercialized overseas. Beyond electric vehicles, Tim sees untapped potential for solid-state batteries in grid-scale storage and at EV charging stations, where they could buffer demand and reduce grid strain. He also reflects on the global battery race, why careful partner selection is essential for protecting IP, and how the U.S. can maintain leadership in next-generation energy storage. Whether you are interested in battery chemistry, clean tech innovation, or the business of scaling breakthrough hardware, Tim offers a rare look at the science, strategy, and partnerships shaping the future of energy storage.

Think battery storage systems are fire hazards? The data tells a different story.Today on the Clean Power Hour, Joe DeBellis, Global Head of Clean Energy at FireTrace, reveals shocking findings from a survey of nearly 4,000 Americans about battery storage safety. While headlines focus on rare fire incidents, 71% of Americans actually support battery energy storage technology.Here's what you'll discover:The surprising truth about battery fires: 89% start from electrical components, not the batteries themselves. Only 11% originate from battery cells or modules. Fire incidents have dropped 97% between 2018-2023, with just one fire per 35 gigawatts of installed capacity.Why public opposition exists: 52% of the 29% who oppose battery projects lack basic information about the technology. Misinformation drives fear more than actual risk data.What's inside battery containers: Beyond batteries, these systems contain HVAC equipment, power conversion systems, battery management systems, and control cabinets. Each component presents different fire risks requiring specific suppression strategies.FireTrace's dual approach to safety: Clean agent systems protect electrical components without damaging electronics. Aerosol technology using potassium carbonate prevents thermal runaway in battery cells.How developers can improve project approval: Proactive safety planning beats reactive measures. Early engagement with authorities having jurisdiction and communities builds trust through education.The regulatory landscape: UL 9540, NFPA 855, and evolving safety standards are creating better frameworks for safe deployment.The key takeaway: Focus fire prevention efforts on electrical components, not just batteries. This approach addresses 89% of actual fire risks while building community trust through education.Connect with Guest LinkedIn: Joe DeBellisWebsite: Firetrace Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

The United States and China wrapped up the third round of high-level trade negotiations earlier this week. American and Chinese negotiators met in Stockholm on July 28 and 29. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent described the talks as constructive and wide ranging. He acknowledged that an extension of the 90-day tariff pause was discussed but said that the final decision was up to President Trump.  As of today – August 1 – Trump has remained mum. The Chinese side's readout was devoid of details, although China's vice minister of commerce said that both countries would continue to push for an extension of the reciprocal tariffs and Chinese countermeasures.How should we assess the dynamics in the trade talks, including the balance of leverage between Washington and Beijing? And how might the trade negotiations shape the future of the US-China relationship? To discuss these questions, we are joined by Dr. Scott Kennedy.

In a market flooded with cheap imports and geopolitical risk, one company is standing its ground.Did you know there's only one North American battery management system (BMS) provider at utility scale—despite growing pressure from subsidized Chinese competitors offering systems at zero cost? Michael Worry, CEO of Nuvation Energy, joins Nico to share how his company became that lone provider. But the core of this episode brings a critical warning: what happens when over 80% of the U.S. battery infrastructure is owned or influenced by foreign governments? And how should engineers and lawmakers respond?Michael takes us on a wild entrepreneurial ride: from building EVs before Tesla was cool to deploying robot kegerators at Burning Man. Nuvation's “garage projects” aren't just PR stunts—they're real-world user acceptance test platforms that prove product reliability under extreme conditions.Expect to learn:
