Electric transitbus manufacturer Proterra Inc. Once customized, operators can reconfigure battery packs to meet evolving service needs.
Fast charging is seen as a solution for range and recharging time issues for EVs. However, a critical barrier to fast charging is temperature. Now, a team from Penn State has devised an approach that enables 15-min fast charging of Li-ion batteries in any temperatures (even at ? C charge at 10 °C and C/1.5
While this investment will help Proterra commercialize its electric bus and fast-charging technology, it also helps to address the future challenges of urban mobility. with additional buses to be added, and new buses and charging stations are also headed to San Antonio and Tallahassee, Fla., Proterra Inc. later this year.

Each battery system is made up of three structurally identical standard containers, each of which contains 12 battery modules with lithiumtitanate (LTO) cells. Long-term charging and discharging amounts to 50 kW, but can reach up to 80 kW. The standard container has an energy content of 15.2 The nominal voltage stands at 662.4
The energy storage system incorporates the latest LithiumTitanate (LTO) technology, which significantly increases energy density, allows for faster charging and enables pure electric (engine off) extended range capability. With the launch of eGen Flex Allison will offer two distinct models, eGen Flex and eGen Flex Max.
Swiss battery manufacturer Leclanché SA ( earlier post ) and China-based Zhejiang Narada Power Source Co Ltd, a global battery manufacturer, announced a strategic partnership for the manufacturing and development of lithium-ion battery technology for the Chinese and global markets. GWh fabrication facility in 2017.
Researchers at MIT have devised a new pulsed laser deposition technique to make thinner lithium electrolytes using less heat, promising faster charging and potentially higher-voltage solid-state lithium ion batteries. MIT and ETH have jointly filed for two patents on the multi-layer lithium garnet/lithium nitride processing.
Proterra offers both extended-range (XR) and fast-charge (FC) versions of its electric bus, using different battery technologies. The TerraVolt FC fast charge battery option (lithiumtitanate, LTO chemistry) allows for maximum run time with minimum dwell time. Charge time. Earlier post.)
has conducted ballistic tests on battery cells using its unique Lithium Ion NANO battery technology and determined that even when these cells are shot they do not experience thermal runaway.
