The good, independent alternative station here shut down a year ago, so pretty much only SiriusXM for me these days. It’s easy to get siloed into FirstWave, Lithium, AltNation, and FactionPunk, which are all great, but then you miss new artists and songs.

LFP batteries in 2026 > 82% batteries
Dominance makes tough to beat, lithium world's lightest metal, tough to replace
Sodium emerging as crucial, may be cost-effective, safer alternative, but still only early stages of scaling, must catch energy density and manufacturing capacity

"China has been working to develop alternatives...Unlike lithium, sodium is cheap and plentiful. It also is much less environmentally destructive to mine. Perhaps in Trump’s vision he'll have shut off China from access to lithium in ten or fifteen years...[when] China likely will not need lithium."
