Could somebody tell what is the newest
ideas in energy storage technology?
Is there some new effects discovered,
such as quantum or electron related?
Is this possible to have energy storage
which would be average in energy
density between chemical and nuclear?

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
