2-3 days to charge? What are you talking about? You obviously didn't read the article, which addresses battery costs, not charging technologies.
If I charge the battery using hydrocarbons, what's the point, I lose efficiency, and would be better served burning the hydrocarbons directly.
So, I charge it with solar. As there is no reliable long periods of sunshine ~8 months out of the year where I live, it will take a long time to charge any battery.
I'm sure the battery chemistry is on par with the algae battery, the urine battery, and all the other quack technologies that make the news every six months or so.
