John Goodenough: 1922-2023 All of us in the lithium ion battery and electric vehicle industry have stood on the shoulders of giants. Those giants: John Goodenough, Stan Whittingham, Akira Yoshino. The passing of John Goodenough marks a moment in time for our industry to be thankful. Thankful for this genuine pioneer who led the discovery of probably the most powerful technology to change our world and shift us away from fossil fuel dominance. It was an absolute joy to see than John saw the beginnings of the mass commercialisation of the lithium ion battery, a generation after his groundbreaking discovery at @UniofOxford He has created a multi-billion dollar industry. Over the last 8 years, John had got his flowers: taking stages at the biggest industry events, world political forums and, of course, being awarded the @NobelPrize May he rest in peace and may we all benefit from the man that changed the world. Myself and all of Team Benchmark @benchmarkmin send our deepest condolences.
