In a concerted effort to combat climate change and foster sustainable transportation solutions, Manx Utilities, the primary provider of mains water, wastewater, and electricity services on the Isle of Man, has joined forces with Lucy Zodion to propel the island's electric vehicle (EV) revolution.
There’s not a second to lose if the UK is to build a world-class battery industry
TheFaraday Institution’s latest reporton UK gigafactories finds that they could support 35,000 jobs by 2040, along with a further 65,000 in the supply chain, but warns that the UK is not moving quickly enough.
BT Group powers up first EV charger using cabinet
BT Group has begun the installation of its inaugural electric vehicle (EV) charging point powered by a street cabinet, signalling the initial phase of trials that could prompt a broader overhaul of cabinet units throughout the UK.
EAO enhances universal switch family with LIN-Bus variants
EAO industry has extended its family of universal switches for interior applications in cars, electric vehicles, buses, trucks and special vehicles.
AI enables autonomous robots for precision offshore wind farm repairs
The National Robotarium is supporting the development of new artificial intelligence and control systems that could allow underwater robots to operate autonomously and with high precision in turbulent seas, potentially revolutionising maintenance and repair tasks for offshore wind turbines.
Mercedes-Benz opens battery recycling plant
Mercedes-Benz has opened Europe's firstbattery recycling plantwith an integrated mechanical-hydrometallurgical process, making it the first car manufacturer to close the battery recycling loop with its own in-house facility.
UK startup slashes EV battery pack development time
UK-based EV battery packtechnology startupIONETIC has unveiled a world-first software-accelerated, AI-supported development system, Arc, that delivers multi-million dollar savings in battery pack development costs, and halves time-to-market for custom battery packs.
How bidirectional EV charging maximises battery utility
Driven by net zero goals, more electric vehicles (EVs) are hitting the road, each with a rechargeable battery along for the ride. But an EV doesn’t just represent one less carbon-emitting combustion engine on the road – it’s also a potential energy source if it’s capable of bidirectional charging.
