Designing EV charging networks in covered locations (Webinar)
How to solve communication requirements. With the rise in popularity of the EV market, so comes the increase in the necessity for EV charging stations in more convenient locations, like public parking garages. Covered public parking garages, and other busy urban environments, present a unique challenge: The ability to connect devices and communicate without interruption…. Read more »
Developing standards for EV charging reliability
Q&A with Frank Menchaca, President of SAE International’s Sustainable Mobility Solutions The reliability—or rather, the unreliability—of public EV charging stations is nothing less than a scandal, and it’s holding back EV adoption. This tragedy involves a cast of many players—automakers, charger manufacturers, network operators, electric utilities, and often a lot more—and all need to start… Read more »
Chinese automakers are forging ahead with sodium-ion batteries
Sodium-ion batteries, which could offer significant cost and raw material procurement advantages over the lithium-ion kind, have been much discussed in the press of late. Chinese battery behemoth CATL unveiled its first-generation sodium-ion battery in July 2021. At the time, analysts predicted that Na-ion cells, which are expected to offer only modest energy density, would… Read more »
