ABB’s new CogniEN delivers real-time data on EV charging station performance
The poor reliability of public chargers is an industry-wide scandal. Better access to real-time diagnostic data surely wouldn’t hurt, so we’re happy to hear about a new cloud-based digital monitoring platform called CogniEN, from ABB Electrification. CogniEN isn’t specifically designed for the charging industry—it’s also aimed at the utility, data center and renewable energy sectors…. Read more »
Testing e-axle lubricants to enhance heat transfer, copper compatibility and durability performance (Webinar)
EV lubricants are becoming more important than ever with new applications such as e-axle fluids and new performance requirements. Initially, for Driveline e-fluids the primary drivers were efficiency and wear performance. However, there is now an increasing focus on heat transfer and copper compatibility requirements. All of this without sacrificing any durability performance. In addition… Read more »
Researchers say novel SEI-forming binder for graphite can improve fast charging performance
A team of researchers from the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) has demonstrated a new fast-charging technique that promotes Li-ion intercalation of active material through the use of a novel binder material. According to the studies, the binder material improves desolvated Li-ion transport through the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) and within the… Read more »
KAUST discovers inorganic 3D foam that may improve anode performance
KAUST, a Saudi Arabian private research university, says that lithium batteries may soon enjoy enhanced efficiency, thanks to a highly ordered foam of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) that it has discovered. KAUST reports that the complex hierarchical structure of the self-assembling foam allows it to easily and repeatedly soak up and then release large quantities of… Read more »
