There are some key tests about to happen for liquid metal batteries. These are batteries that are made with lead and aluminum and in some designs zinc. The metals can be mixed and melted and gravity will cause them to form cathode-anode layers. This makes them cheap. They also repair themselves just by floating in layers. The technological challenge is that the metals must be melted, and this means maintaining the battery at about 1000 degress F without melting the container that they are in. This is the challenge that is being tested this year. If successful, inexpensive huge batteries could be built to store the output of large wind and solar farms. greentechmedia.com
