Where our energy comes from and how its stored is a huge part of conversation around preserving our environment. Batteries are a well know way to store power, and there are new frontiers in battery tech to explore. Dr Amy Prieto is a professor of Chemistry in Colorado and the founder of Prieto Battery. She's designing new ways to make better and safer rechargeable batteries and fills us in on the power sources that we carry around all day.
