You might want to read the article fully.  There are concerns with the 
basic theory of how it works as well as the experimental methods of 
collecting data as described in the research papers.  All in all I think 
there are serious concerns that need to be addressed.

This may well turn out to be another Linus Pauling and vitamin C 
although I hope not.  Battery technology is largely stalled and a major 
advance like this would open up HUGE markets.
