California-based electriccar and battery company CODA Automotive ( earlier post ), together with its China-based joint venture partner, Lishen Power Battery, has secured $394 million of committed capital. CODA Automotive is slated to begin deliveries of its all-electriccar in the fourth quarter of this year.
On the sidelines of the COP21 summit, Carwatt and its partners Renault, Paris City Council, BPI France, the Alès École des Mines Engineering School, and the Bobigny Business Campus are showing a converted Renault Trafic powered by second-life lithium-ion batteries recycled from Renault electriccars.
Less than five years from now, one million metric tons of electriccar batteries will need new jobs. Some will power new vehicles, others in powerstorage and some will be too damaged. The post Riches or rubbish: Australian firms prepare for EV battery surge appeared first on The Driven.
Volkswagen commissioned the first fast-charging park in Saxony, which is supplied with energy largely from a so-called powerstorage container (PSC). The PSC is a type of enormous electricitystorage unit and consists of 96 cell modules with a net capacity of 570 kWh.
The battery storage system electrified by BMW i is sized so it can be placed in the basement or the garage of a detached house, where the stored energy can either be used for electrically-operated devices in the home or for charging the battery of an electriccar.
If used in stationary powerstorage, the systems are fully operational even after the service life guaranteed by the manufacturer—with slight capacity losses only of secondary importance. Reusing the modules from electriccars in a battery storage doubles their economic value and also demonstrably improves their eco-balance.
A large part of the weight efficiency is also due to the dedicated electric chassis with lightweight F1 subframe and aluminum brake discs. The outcome is that the compact battery, measuring just 200 x 126 x 11 cm (79 x 50 x 4 in), is also comparatively light at 1,091 lbs and fits in a compact car. Another is the battery.
Ltd., ( Lishen ) for lithium-ion batteries used in the Coda, announced the establishment of a global joint venture with Lishen to design, manufacture and sell transportation and utility powerstorage battery systems. Additionally, the company, which has an existing long-term sourcing contract with Tianjin Lishen Battery Joint-Stock Co.,
Electriccars and a smart electric grid have a bright future, according to panelists at a roundtable discussion on the subject that I attended last Friday in Boston. “I Mr. Thesen said that a factory in Turkey was being refurbished to be able to produce 100,000 electric vehicles a year.
Many analysts believe that for electriccars to be “subsidy-free competitive” with liquid-fueled cars, the costs still need to come down by a factor of two or three and oil needs to be at $100/barrel. Another way to lower the effective cost of the battery pack to the consumer is capture the pack’s residual value.
In addition, the company has announced the establishment of a global joint venture with Lishen to design, manufacture and sell transportation and utility powerstorage battery systems. Tags: Electriccars Green cars Latest news Coda Coda Automotive Lishen.
Large electric vehicles: buses, electriccars, hybrid vehicles, etc. Light electric vehicles: electric bicycles, golf carts, electric wheelchairs, etc. Transportation power supply. Powerstoragepower. Mobile communication power. New energy storagepower.
This turns EV batteries into a source for powerstorage that can be leveraged to balance energy capacity in your condo. at night) and then feed energy back from their cars to the building during peak times. For instance, tenants could charge their EVs during off-peak hours (i.e.
Many companies continue to try and improve batteries, not just for EVs, but for powerstorage in general. Beyond Cars and Trucks. While electriccars receive the lion’s share of media coverage, there are other vehicles being developed, introduced, and shipped in 2023. . Battery Improvements.
We also need more powerstorage in the form of batteries and other technologies to store power when the sun shines and the wind blows. We also need more Grid to Car and Car to Grid interconnect. This should be a big push to instal more solar and in turn cut or generation needs.
And, you have to recognize that they pull a hell of a lot of power through the local grid: there will come a time when we will see utility transformers popping from all the current being drawn (imagine just a few dozen EVs fast-charging simultaneously, on 480V at 500A: wow). That is the compact territory to which they are best suited.
