Electric vehicles with high power not just a dream
Researchers from Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) developed a new method to massively synthesize enhanced yet affordable materials for supercapacitors.
The light industrial & commercial EV business will exceed $20b by 2023
A significant proportion of electric cars and car-like MicroEVs including e-trikes and e-rickshaws will take the form of taxis as detailed in the new IDTechEx report, Industrial and Commercial Electric Vehicles 2013-2023.
Innovators Partner To Develop Wireless Vehicle Charging Technology
South Carolina's leading automotive research center and premier technology and aviation business park have partnered to study next-generation vehicle technology.
1.2m Stop-Starts For A New Generation Of Micro-Mild Hybrid Vehicles
Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) has completed more than two years of continuous testing to validate its SpeedStart belt-integrated starter-generator for 1.2 million stop-starts, which is considered the new industry standard that will be required for a new generation of micro-mild hybrid vehicles
Catalyst could jumpstart e-cars, green energy
Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists have designed a new type of nanostructured-carbon-based catalyst that could pave the way for reliable, economical next-generation batteries and alkaline fuel cells, providing for practical use of wind- and solar-powered electricity, as well as enhanced hybrid electric vehicles.
The Electric Vehicle Business: New Developments
Electric vehicles (EVs) are a large, growing market with new sectors being added all the time such as the pure electric, multi-rotor volocopter that spawned a new regulatory category in German aviation this year. IDTechEx find that pure electric car sales in 2013 will be 70,000 vehicles rising to 2 million in 2023, versus 2 million hybrid vehicles this year rising to 7.6 million in 2023. Of course, the big unit numbers come at the small end - mos...
Will graphene supercapacitors be the best?
Black magic has a new meaning. It is the sub-optimal way most supercapacitors rely on soot from burnt coconut shells and some homespun trickery. The soot is deposited on something akin to cooking foil and that often has the 40 micron thickness of lithium-ion battery electrodes ten years ago, before they were optimised.
Webinar: Electric motors for EVs 2013-2023 - forecasts & trends
Leading technology analysts IDTechEx will run this free webinar which includes data from the new IDTechEx report Electric Motors for Electric Vehicles 2013-2023: Forecasts, Technologies, Players.
Will Graphene Supercapacitors Be The Best?
Black magic has a new meaning. It is the sub-optimal way most supercapacitors rely on soot from burnt coconut shells and some homespun trickery. The soot is deposited on something akin to cooking foil and that often has the 40 micron thickness of lithium-ion battery electrodes ten years ago, before they were optimised. Contrary to teaching based on yesterday's understanding, supercapacitors are competitors of lithium-ion batteries.
Industrial revolution or just a renovation? 3D printing looks set to pack a punch by 2025.
3D printing has come of age, surpassing $1B in revenues during 2012 and with growth expected to continue across all target markets to 2025. Across the board printer manufacturers are reporting a surge in sales, some cannot meet demand, as awareness of the technologies and what they offer grows.
