Altilium and Lunaz develop custom electric trucks to transport EV batteries for recycling
In recycling, one of the biggest cost items is transporting the materials, and this is obviously the case for EV batteries, which are heavy and pose health and safety risks. UK-based recycler Altilium and Lunaz, a European firm that upcycles and electrifies vehicles, are working together to develop an innovative and low-carbon logistical solution. According… Read more »
A cutting-edge system-on-chip designed to replace traditional EV microcontrollers (Webinar)
Silicon Mobility invented the Field Programmable Control Unit (FPCU), a cutting-edge system-on-chip designed to replace traditional microcontrollers in the automotive sector. Over the past few years, Silicon Mobility has been diligently developing the 2nd generation of FPCUs, known as the OLEA® U FPCU series, now opening access to lead customers. The OLEA U FPCU series… Read more »
Packaging second-life EV batteries into a plug-and-play energy storage system
Q&A with Smartville CEO and co-founder Antoni Tong What do EV batteries have in common with athletes and politicians? Once they age out (or get voted out) of their positions, they have the opportunity to have a lucrative (and in the case of batteries, useful) second career. Repurposing depleted EV batteries for stationary storage applications… Read more »
The economics of recycling LFP batteries are not as attractive as NCM—an opportunity for second-life applications?
The anti-EV crowd is fond of stating that EV batteries “can’t be recycled.” If they read Charged on a regular basis, they would learn that EV batteries are in fact being recycled around the world by a growing number of companies. Lithium-ion batteries contain valuable minerals such as nickel and cobalt, so they’re no more… 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 »
Accelerating EV engineering with an integrated multiphysics design workflow (Webinar)
Predicting motor electromagnetics, noise, heat transfer, stresses, or simulating specific phenomena on an electric drive is technologically challenging and requires new fields of expertise and mindsets. Join this webinar, at our Spring Virtual Conference on EV Engineering, where Sudhi Uppuluri and Benoit Magneville from Siemens explain how a collaborative and flexible ecosystem connects the toolsets… Read more »
