Battery innovation needed

What/when was the last major advance in battery technology? How do they even measure advances in battery tech? Capacity/lb? Capacity/$? Charge/Discharge rate? Are there innovation cost curves for battery technology...like Moore's Law for semiconductors, magnetic storage density, wind power etc.? Is there a physical limit? Are we close to it?
It strikes me that significant improvement in energy storage would boost a whole host of renewables energy sources. Can anyone point me to resources that look at this problem?
