Altilium, a UK-based clean technology group, has produced recycled battery cathode active materials (CAM) that are comparable to commercial materials. Atlilium says its EcoCathode process can recover more than 95% of the critical metals, including lithium, from spent batteries, before upcycling and re-engineering them to produce new battery chemistry materials. Results from electrochemical cycle testing… Read more »
One of the biggest problems with public EV charging is the fragmented nature of the networks (now more fashionably known as CPOs). Charging an EV should be as easy as using a cell phone, but many CPOs still expect drivers to download apps, set up passwords, etc. Ugh! Hubject has developed an eRoaming platform that… Read more »
The California Air Resources Board has approved an update to the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) that will make it more difficult for biofuel producers to generate regulatory credits, and seems likely to result in the largest share of credits going to support electricity for EV charging. The program, which is funded by fossil… Read more »
With the rapid rise of electric vehicles, the need for public ultra-fast, reliable charging infrastructure has become critical. Join this webinar, where ZOOZ Power will discuss its kinetic power booster that enables ultra-fast EV charging without requiring costly grid upgrades. The ZOOZTER™-100 is built with patented flywheel technology—a smart boosting solution for fast charging in… Read more »
UK-based automotive design and engineering consultancy Contechs will run a new high-voltage systems engineering accreditation program in 2025 to train engineers for the electric mobility sector. The initiative aims to address an 80% skills shortage of qualified electrical engineers in the automotive sector. It will be available to businesses and individuals from graduate to qualified… Read more »
Amprius Technologies, which produces lithium-ion batteries with silicon anodes, has shipped its SiMaxx A-Sample EV Cells to the United States Advanced Battery Consortium (USABC). Amprius’s internal testing of the A-Sample EV cell has shown specific energy of 360 Wh/kg at the beginning of its life—surpassing the USABC program target of 275 Wh/kg at end of… Read more »
Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have set up a robotic, modular and agile battery cell production system to enable production of customized battery cells in required quantities. KIT researchers developed special robot cells in cooperation with Exyte, a German engineering company. Using a robotic automation system, the researchers have reached a level… Read more »
Commercial vehicle fleets will electrify sooner or later—the savings from lower maintenance and energy costs are substantial, and growing. However, the math behind a transition to EVs can be quite complicated. EVs are less standardized than diesel vehicles, and their total cost of ownership (TCO) can vary based on a wide array of factors, from… Read more »
Sponsored by DuPont. The automotive industry is rapidly evolving, and electric vehicles are at the forefront of this transformation. Continued EV adoption hinges on several key factors: reducing costs, building a robust charging infrastructure, and designing efficient, durable battery packs with longer-range and fast-charging capabilities. As automakers strive to match the cost and efficiency of… Read more »
