How does a sealed metal cylinder the size of your finger store enough energy to power a phone all day, and then do it again thousands of times? What actually happens inside a lithium-ion cell when you plug it in? And why do batteries fade, swell, and occasionally burst into flame?

Starting from atoms, electrons, and simple chemical reactions, it builds a complete picture of how energy storage works, all the way to the electric vehicles and grid batteries shaping the future.
