Bollinger Motors and Wabash to develop last-mile refrigerated delivery electric truck
Bollinger Motors (now a subsidiary of Mullen Automotive) has teamed up with truck body and trailer manufacturer Wabash to develop a refrigerated truck body on an electric chassis. Wabash has developed a lightweight composite technology called EcoNex Technology which it says will seamlessly integrate with Bollinger’s Class 4 electric chassis cab, and deliver significant weight… Read more »
6K and ONE enter joint development agreement for battery material
Battery materials producer 6K has signed a joint development agreement with Michigan-based energy storage company Our Next Energy (ONE) to develop and produce a battery material that ONE will use in its dual-chemistry Gemini battery and LFP Aries battery pack. The companies will develop two chemistries that include iron phosphate and manganese. “Early collaboration will… Read more »
Electrify America highlights customer satisfaction efforts
Public charging networks have been coming in for their share of criticism lately. Recent studies from UC Berkeley, J.D. Power and Plug In America (among others) have quantified what EV drivers already know: the uptime performance of public chargers is abysmal. As EV sales have grown, accounts of malfunctioning chargers have spread from bitch sessions… Read more »
How to improve EV battery design with pressure mappings (Webinar)
Engineers involved in battery and EV design and manufacturing have common goals: to maximize performance, lifespan, and safety. Join this session at our Fall Virtual Conference on EV Engineering, presented by Tekscan, to learn why pressure mapping is a critical step in battery R&D for improving battery life, and how to apply it in quality… Read more »
Power electronics thermal limits and how to not exceed them
To someone who isn’t involved in power electronics design, it might seem unreal that the amount of power a component can handle depends more on how effectively waste heat can be removed from it than it does on the specific electrical ratings. Sure, the voltage and current ratings are important (especially the voltage rating), but… Read more »
TWAICE battery analytics platform promises enormously valuable insights at every point in a battery’s lifecycle
How healthy is your battery pack? As the old saw goes, if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. As the EV ecosystem develops, there will be an increasing need to measure and manage the performance of battery cells. Cell manufacturers need a standardized way to evaluate test data for new cells; EV designers… Read more »
Battery tech firm Iontra closes $38-million Series B funding round
Colorado-based battery technology company Iontra has closed a $38-million Series B funding round with investments from Volta Energy Technologies, Flag Group and others. Iontra says it plans to invest the new funds in its power control technology and battery development software. Iontra says its power control technology could replace CC-CV charging. “We have found a… Read more »
