What Testing Equipment Do We Need Now For Tomorrow’s EV Batteries?

The soaring demand for EV batteries of increasing capacity has real implications for production and research testing. Managers can expand their battery test systems to increase their power, but they may not have enough space on the production floor. Already, voltage test requirements are exceeding the voltage limit of some test systems. As voltage and… Read more »

Testing BMS Controller and Charging Software In A Virtual Environment: Electromobility Virtualization

Shifting testing of Charging and BMS controller software towards virtual verification offers a powerful and cost-effective approach. This virtual validation environment eliminates the need for physical ECU hardware during initial testing, enabling earlier verification of critical controller algorithms. Virtual testing further enhances efficiency by allowing for flexible simulation speed and parallel test execution, significantly increasing… Read more »

Sumitomo Rubber develops simulation technique to develop next-gen EV tires

EVgo builds public EV charging stations faster and cheaper using prefabrication

EV charging network operator EVgo has opened its first public EV charging station built using the company’s new prefabrication approach. Located at the Bay Colony Town Center in League City, Texas, this EVgo station is the first of several prefabricated stations slated to open this year. EVgo expects its prefabrication process to reduce station construction… Read more »

ADS-TEC Energy deploys its first 320 kW ChargeBox EV chargers at a multifamily residential complex

Ireland-based ADS-TEC Energy, a developer and producer of battery storage–based platforms, has for the first time installed its ChargeBox ultra-fast EV chargers at a multiunit residential development: the 470-unit Marina Palms Yacht Club and Residences in North Miami Beach, Florida. ADS-TEC says the chargers require no major construction or upgrades to electrical infrastructure. They use… Read more »

NYC’s curbside EV chargers see 72% utilization rate

It’s becoming increasingly clear that the solution to the Plight of the Drivewayless (those poor souls who can’t install EV chargers at their homes) is simply lots of curbside chargers (see London and Oslo). New York City began installing public curbside EV charging stations in 2021 as part of a pilot that was originally expected… Read more »
