Ethan Loosbrock, founder and CEO of Oros Energy, explains why batteries are the critical bottleneck holding back electric vehicles, drones, robotics, grid storage, and beyond — and what next-generation battery chemistry could unlock.
We explore the global battery supply chain, China's dominance in production, and what it would take for the U.S. to rebuild domestic leadership in advanced energy storage. If you're interested in EVs, clean energy, energy independence, or the future of transportation and AI infrastructure, this episode maps out what comes next.
In this episode:
Why battery energy density and cost remain the core constraint across EVs, drones, robotics, and electric aircraft
How breakthroughs in battery chemistry could open up entirely new applications in defense, aerospace, and autonomous systems
The current state of the global battery supply chain and why China dominates production
What the U.S. would need to do to reclaim leadership in advanced energy storage
How lower-cost, higher-performance batteries could reshape global energy markets and AI infrastructure
