In 2012, America handed the future of energy to Beijing. A123, a $400 million battery company, filed for bankruptcy and was sold to China for parts.

 

Today China makes 80% of the world’s batteries. Most people have accepted the story ended there. Ouros founder and CEO Ethan Loosbrock is actually fighting back.

 

I recently caught up with Ethan to discuss why America still has a shot at winning the battery war… and the tech he’s building to make it happen.


In our interview you’ll hear:

 

  • Why lasers will replace bullets

  • How to break America’s battery addiction

  • Why sodium ion batteries will fail

  • America's best shot at beating China

  • The walled garden making Ouros rich
