I feel like there's a new story like this every month or so. Last month it was the flouride battery:
Fluoride battery has potential to hold ten times more energy than lithium battery
Oh, and Lithium air resurfaced last month too:
lithium-air batteries are the coming thing. They have the potential to hold ten times the capacity per unit volume of lithium-ion batteries
Why is it always 10 times? My guess is that its 10 years before we actually see anything in mass production giving us 10 times what we have now.

I thought northwestern had some credibility. But then again it's not really an engineering powerhouse.
