While President Joe Biden was busy checking out the latest Corvette with car executives at the Detroit auto show last week, a decidedly different car-related event was occurring about 30 minutes away in another convention center: The Battery Show. It’s probably not surprising that you haven’t heard of the trade show, but it saw its
BEIJING — China’s CATL is working on new battery materials that can improve energy density by 10% to 20% compared to iron phosphate batteries, the company’s chairman said, as the battery giant scrambles to retain its top position amid competition. The new material technology known as M3P can enable an electric vehicle to run 700
Panasonic Energy Co, a major Tesla supplier, is working on new technology to increase battery energy density by a fifth by 2030, the Japanese company’s chief technology officer told Reuters. That gain, if achieved, could boost the driving range of a Model Y, for example, by over 100 km (62 miles) with the same size
Let’s face the hard facts, the battery is the primary limiting factor for Electric Vehicles (EVs), second to the charging infrastructure, and if we’re going to fit EVs into the current American lifestyle battery technology is just going to have to get better, quickly. Fortunately, there’s such a thing as solid-state batteries, which are essentially
