OK, I'll play.

From the beginning:

Caltech researchers from campus and JPL have collaborated to devise a method for coating lithium-ion battery cathodes with graphene, extending the life and performance of these widely used rechargeable batteries.

These efforts have led to a promising discovery that may improve lithium-ion battery performance and reduce reliance on cobalt, an element frequently used in lithium-ion batteries that is difficult to source sustainably.

Seeing as lithium-ion ("LION") batteries are in laptops and cell phones and electric cars and everything, this could be a big deal.
