Grid energy storage is one of the hottest areas of research and engineering today. It's all about cheap, sustainable, and efficient materials, which makes iron-air batteries stand out amongst the others. Not only is iron plentiful and cheap, it's completely recyclable and even better - rechargeable. Let's look at iron-air battery technology and see how likely it is to transform our energy grid.

Here's Matt's video:

    For the record we like getting different takes on the same thing. And I really like your take and presentation style.
  • @UndecidedMF
    I knew I missed something in my video. Well done sir.
  • @SubnetMask
    Literally laughed my ass off through the whole phone scene. Trust me you've no reason to worry about Matt !
  • @interferon4800
    11:55 you got those two backwards. Watt-hours is the measure of total work done. Watts are the rate at which work is being done. It is really unfortunate that we decided to use watt-hours instead of joules for energy. It makes it very confusing and people confuse watts and watt-hours all the time because they sound the same.
  • @akumabito2008
    Nahh Matt can do his own thing. You're my go-to guy for all things batteries and existential dread. Good times!
  • @davidmende3409
    "Just cut to an animation and pretend it never happend" got me good. Joe, if you're reading this THAT is the reason i keep on coming to this watering hole of knowledge and humor in the often dry desert called youtube.
  • @fukemnukem1525
    You're channel is SO GOOD man. Learning and laughing..... Well done.... One of my absolute favorite channels on YouTube.
  • @wallykramer7566
    The puppies were a great warm up act. But what really rotated my grok was the babe with the puppies! Such a natural beauty! Also very much appreciate your acknowledgement of Matt Ferrel. Very gentlemanly of you!
  • @idrunn8764
    hey Joe, know it was just a bit, but I just wanted to say I actually prefer your presentation style to Matt's despite how slick his videos are. Your humor is an irreplaceable part of it as well so please keep doing what you do, even if it happens to be what matt did a week ago. <3
  • @auckalukaum
    The number one reason I started watching Matt in the first place was to find out what Joe would be talking about next week.
  • @joeyveldink4902
    While Matt's video's are very clean and definitely worth a watch, it's nice to have different takes on the subject. I like your videos a lot because you're really good at explaining complicated topics in a way most folks can understand. Combining that with a healthy dose of humor makes for a great video that can teach us something in a fun and interesting way, and sometimes give us existential dread. Keep up your great work!
  • @benstanfill363
    I've never heard of Matt. Please don't skip posting something because someone else covered it. You're my connection to this whole world.
  • @andoletube
    The puppies are a definite win for you, Joe. I had to watch twice: once for the batteries, once for the puppies.
  • @willofone2120
    5:11 I have never seen such a brutal attack from a pack of vicious animals. Those carful coordinated strikes seem devastatingly effective.
  • @wpgtech
    That was really good, Joe. Humble and entertaining, yet informative at the same time, while respecting another creator. Well done, and thanks!
  • @InservioLetum
    I watch both you and Matt, Joe, and I can assure you your humour and facial antics blow matt's graphics ABSOLUTELY out of the water.
  • @chuckweb66
    Got it! Puppies are energy storage from oxygen. My question, when the puppies grow up and eventually become older dogs, how does that effect their changing cycles?
  • Deadpan, irony, and the morbid / cerebral humour combo. Love it all. And the science, love the science. Chair spin is a keeper too. Though I'd like to see some science kittens. Cat people are people too.
  • @cameronshaw4597
    Love the video joe! You’re my go to guy for anything science/energy related. Love your style of delivery. You bring character to it 👍
  • @ruinenlust_
    I LOVE the phone bit. Absolutely boldering with laughter here. Holy shit
