The California Center for Sustainable Energy (CCSE) will lead a joint research study of how the useful lifespan of electric vehicle batteries could be extended by repurposing them as household electricstorage devices with a $992,000 grant from the University of California. of Monrovia, Calif.; —Mike Ferry.
ALTe Powertrain Technologies, the developer of a Range Extended Electric Powertrain used to repower light commercial vehicles up to 26,000 GVW ( earlier post ), has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to form a joint venture with Inmatech, Inc. , The applications will range from automotive batteries to stationary grid power leveling devices.
Grants will be disbursed from the Innovation Fund to help bring technologies to the market in energy-intensive industries, hydrogen, renewable energy, carbon capture and storage infrastructure, and manufacturing of key components for energy storage and renewables. The first call for large-scale projects awarded grants of €1.1
Used batteries, gear shafts and cogwheels could even show up in other applications outside the automotive industry. A camera moves slowly over a lithium ion battery, which has just been extracted from a car that was damaged in an accident. Next, the battery cover is removed through a semi-automated process.
Liquid Metal Battery Corporation (LMBC), a Cambridge, Massachusetts company founded in 2010 to develop new forms of electricstoragebatteries that work in large, grid-scale applications, has secured the rights to key patent technology from MIT. Patents for all liquid metal battery inventions were licensed from MIT.
Ambri, developer of Liquid Metal Battery grid-scale energy storage technology, closed a $35-million Series C equity financing. The energy is stored in the liquid metals that want to react with one another but can do so only by transferring ions across the electrolyte, which results in the flow of electric current out of the battery.
Based in the United Kingdom, Connected Energy uses end-of-life EV batteries to create energy storage systems. These combine as many batteries as are needed for tailor-made solutions with capacity ranging from less than 100 kilowatt hours up to 15 megawatt hours or more.
All systems consist of power converters, a transformer, batteries and the control system, mounted inside the container for easy transportation and installation in a “plug and play” solution. STEAG’s large-scale batteries will satisfy the current performance criteria for batterystorage systems supplying primary control power—e.g.,
—have been selected by the Ministry for Economy, Transport and Infrastructure (METI) to receive grants under METI’s FY2018 Sustainable open Innovation Initiative (SII) to help fund “A Demonstrator Project for A Virtual Power Plant Utilizing Consumer Energy Resources (V2G Aggregator Project)”. and Hitachi Solutions, Ltd.—have
The main potential applications are in electricitystorage, transport and the recovery of waste heat. It is clearly worthy of further research and development effort to create a better understanding of its potential alongside more widely recognized potential future low carbon technologies such as advanced battery systems and hydrogen.
The Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle with Long Electric Range (PHEVLER - pronounced “fevler”) is a new category emerging in the electric vehicle marketplace. PHEVLERs are defined as PHEVs with sufficient battery capacity for all electric driving of twice the average daily distance. [
The lifespan of electric vehicle batteries may be expanded beyond the vehicles themselves and into our homes. The California Centre for Sustainable Energy is leading a research study into using electric vehicle batteries as household electricstorage devices after receiving a grant for $992,000 from the University of California.
The California Energy Commission (CEC) approved $5,580,773 for clean-energy transportation projects including biodiesel production, power control electronics for medium-and heavy-duty batteryelectric vehicles, and buydowns for propane vehicles. Energy Innovations Small Grant (EISG) awards. Motiv Power Systems, Inc.
Cheap to run but expensive to buy, they offer theprospect of low or zero carbon emissions, but manufacturers won’t sell themunless motorists want to buy them – and motorists won’t buy unless the priceis right and there are enough places to charge the batteries. Car buyers were less enthusiastic. to charge overnight.
