For now, nanotechnology is just as bad as antigravity. Total scam. Why would I say that? We still don't know how to explain gravity. A fullerene is a nano compartment, the material that makes that compartment is what's important in relation to the type of energy we want to store. We're a loooong way from mass production.
The incentive for recent research is that the US government allowed funds for energy storage development in the range of $300mil . Many crocksters are trying to take advantage of that with far fetched ideas.
One more promising technology is the utra-capacitor being developed by Eestor. That concept will be applied to all the gadgets we use.
