VCs chase auto parts makers to hitch a ride on EV journey – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Such firms have raised funds to expand operations as local demand for EV parts has shot up, opening up the space that has been traditionally dominated by large manufacturers like Sona Comstar and Sterling Gtake. Matel started off as a solar water pump manufacturer in 2016 before starting EV part manufacture in FY21.

MIT/Stanford team develops battery technology for the conversion of low-grade waste heat to power; TREC

Green Car Congress

Researchers at MIT and Stanford University have developed new battery technology for the conversion of low-temperature waste heat into electricity in cases where temperature differences are less than 100 degrees Celsius. converting heat to electricity. These features lead to a high heat-to-electricity energy conversion efficiency of 5.7%

LLNL 3-D printed biocatalytic polymer turns methane to methanol at room temperature and pressure

Green Car Congress

Methane monooxygenases (MMOs), found in methanotrophic bacteria, are selective catalysts for methane activation and conversion to methanol under mild conditions; however, these enzymes are not amenable to standard enzyme immobilization approaches. The enzymes retain up to 100% activity in the polymer construct.
