The acceleration toward more affordable and autonomous EVs has supported the rapid shift toward more electrified vehicles. It has now become even more critical that all processes in the supply chain support the industry scale up. With an important share of the vehicle cost structure, significant improvements are expected at the battery pack material and… Read more »

Connection To The Grid: Circuit Protection And Filtering Considerations For EV Charging
Connecting vehicles to the electrical grid poses significant challenges with respect to circuit protection from fault events and electro-magnetic interference (EMI). The source of these challenges may be generated from within the charger, come from the grid, or have their source from fault conditions within the vehicle itself. Simple steps need to be taken to… Read more »
Liquid Cooling For EV Charging And How To Spec Connectors
The more power used to deliver faster charging, the more heat that is generated. Effective thermal management via liquid cooling deals with the heat and these systems need couplings or secure connectors in order to deliver reliable ongoing operation of EV charging stations and EV battery systems. Attention to thermodynamic principles is critical yet the… Read more »
DERConnect will enable researchers to test integration of renewable energy and EV batteries into the power grid
The National Science Foundation has awarded $39 million to a team of engineers and computer scientists at the University of California San Diego to build a test bed to better understand how to integrate distributed energy sources and EV batteries into the power grid. “We will be replicating the entire California power grid on one… Read more »
EVSE provider SemaConnect secures investment from private equity firm Trilantic
SemaConnect, a provider of charging infrastructure solutions, has received a substantial minority investment from private equity firm Trilantic North America. Founder and CEO Mahi Reddy and COO Mark Pastrone each continue to own “meaningful equity stakes” in the business, and will lead the company through its next phase of growth. SemaConnect has sold over 10,000… Read more »
Liquid Cooling For EV Charging And How To Spec Connectors
The more power used to deliver faster charging, the more heat that is generated. Effective thermal management via liquid cooling deals with the heat and these systems need couplings or secure connectors in order to deliver reliable ongoing operation of EV charging stations and EV battery systems.
Attention to thermodynamic principles is critical yet the appropriate specifications for the components in charging stations are often poorly understood. Flow rate, temperature and pressure requirements, side load, chemical compatibility, seal and valve types, and overall quick disconnect structure and material (e.g., stainless steel, brass and newer high-performance engineered polymers) all have significant impact on liquid cooling system functionality. Purpose-built couplings support the quicker charging and fluid handling components and are often incorporated right alongside critical electronic equipment or components. These connectors or quick disconnects (QDs) are not all created equal…
Refresh yourself on calculations to apply and learn pitfalls to avoid in designing a system and specifying critical components like connectors.
