crick, the details matter, especially when it is technical. The lithium ion battery in not the same as a lithium battery. One is rechargeable and the other is not.The lithium ion battery was invented by a fellow named Lewis Urry who was employed by the Everready Battery company in Canada. He also invented the alkaline battery.

It was not invented by government and it was not the government that developed the demand.
Crick, Guess which one Lewis Urry invented. Googling your opinion to prove what you think you know is a piss poor way to debate. You end up getting things wrong. Google can work well but you must realize, you need to be much more technical.
John B. Goodenough is a world-class physicist and chemist who is credited for the identification and initial development of the first lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. He even got a nobel prize for it.
