A closer look at high-power interconnects and disconnects
In the electrical/electronic world, the terms interconnect and disconnect both refer to a means of joining two sides of a circuit together. The subtle—and entirely informal—difference is that an interconnect is directly or manually operated (inserting a plug into a jack, for example) while a disconnect is indirectly or automatically operated, for example the moving… Read more »
Envision AESC to build 30 GWh gigafactory in South Carolina
Japanese battery player Envision AESC plans to invest some $810 million to build a battery gigafactory in Florence, South Carolina. The 1.5 million-square-foot plant will produce batteries to power the BMW Group’s next-generation EVs. By 2030, BMW plans to produce at least six fully electric models at its plant in Spartanburg.
