I expect I heard the same radio report.  The inventor is John Goodenough 
who was a pioneer in the original Li ion battery, used LiCoO2 as the 
positive terminal which allowed the technology to be economically 
practical.  Since the material donates Li ions, it allows the negative 
terminal to be something *other* than metallic Lithium which makes the 
batteries much safer (in spite of the reports of the dangers of Li Ion 
batteries).

I think he has some street creds, but then so did Linus Pauling.  The 
radio report said some scientists feel Goodenough's claims violate the 
1st law of thermodynamics.  I haven't read the paper myself.
