I'm personally calling out BS on this. We have super computed battery designs for the last 20 years and I think what we have is all we could really have.
To have more denser batteries than what we have, we would have to move beyond lithium because what we have with lithium is all we can have with lithium, imo.

Is the battery more dense than Brandon?

Maybe they mean like the Wright Bros. first flight across some beach sand.
Gotta start somewhere.

A Chinese Company Says Its Batteries Are Dense Enough to Power Electric Planes. Sure.
I can believe that.
But, the batteries would have to be recharged every quarter mile down the runway, which would mean recharging at least 4 times, and then, upon takeoff, the plane would come crashing down because of the weight. So, taxiing would take at least 5 hours because of the recharging, and the plane wold be a total loss upon takeoff. But, oh!!!, what a ride!

Several research labs in the U.S. are experimenting with doubling the capacity of lithium batteries.

A recharge only takes eight hours.

There seem to be some laws of physics that militate against the miracle battery the Great Reset wants to will into being.

Any claim that comes out of communist China, should be taken with a grain of salt. As the old saying goes: “Don’t take any wooden nickels.”

There’s always enough “dumb bunny money” around that will happily invest in “battery magic” to justify an enterprise pushing vaporware like this.

Question: how long does in-flight refueling take for an electric plane?

No thanks, if I see a plane with Duracell on it, I’ll take a car. 🤓

There are restrictions on bring lithium batteries on planes, aren’t there. I thought they had an annoying tendency to start on fire on planes.
