Energy density

Energy density is like how much power you can get from something in a very small amount of space or weight. For example, think about a battery. If you have two batteries that look exactly the same but one lasts longer than the other, that's because the one that lasts longer has a higher energy density. It can produce more power for its size or weight.

Energy density is important because we want things that can give us a lot of energy but also don't take up too much space or weigh too much. This is especially true for things like electric cars or phones that we want to be portable and efficient.

So, the higher the energy density we can get from something, the more powerful and energy efficient it can be. It’s like having a tiny but mighty engine in your car that can take you a longer distance without refueling.
