This diesel-to-hybrid retrofit represents Europe’s first low emissions hybrid tugboat. Earlier post.)
While its emphasis is on all-electric drive systems for urban traffic, Daimler Buses is introducing the Mercedes-Benz Intouro with a hybrid module for inter-city transport as well as for a combination of regular-route and touring coach services. The hybrid module is also making its debut in an inter-city bus in the new Intouro K.
A study of a hybrid tugboat, funded by the California Air Resources Board (ARB) and conducted by UC Riverside, found that when compared with a conventional diesel-powered version, a hybrid tugboat can reduce emissions of PM 2.5 modes shore power, dock, transit, ship assist and barge move. The hybrid tug Carolyn Dorothy.
which develops and manufactures lithium-ion batteries for automotive applications such as hybrid electric vehicles, have developed new lithium-ion batteries for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, a first for the Hitachi Group. Energy density is 120 Wh/kg, power density is 2,400 W/kg. Tags: Batteries Hybrids Plug-ins.
The work is in conjunction with the ongoing development of hybrid concepts already in regular production. The hybrid system of the 911 GT3 R Hybrid was developed especially for racing, with two 60 kW (82 hp) electric motors on the front axle boosting the 480 hp six-cylinder power unit fitted at the rear. Earlier post.).
Sanyo Electric has completed installation of two Solar Parking Lots for hybrid bikes, incorporating solar panels and lithium-ion battery systems, and also provided 100 electric hybrid “eneloop bikes”, in Setagaya, Tokyo Japan. Sanyo is using its new Standard Battery System for PowerStorage announced in November 2009 in the system.
Among its numerous debuts at Busworld Europe in Belgium, Daimler Buses took the wraps off the new Citaro hybrid urban bus. The hybrid powertrain is optionally available for a large number of model variants of the best-selling urban bus, even for the natural-gas-engined Citaro NGT.
MHI and Kyushu Electric Power launched joint research and development into large-size batteries for electric powerstorage in 1988, and successfully developed compact batteries capable of supplying substantial power over long periods.
Under the technology designation EQ Power, the latest electric model (destined for subsequent series production) from the Mercedes-Benz family combines fuel-cell and battery technology in the form of a plug-in hybrid. F-CELL drivers will also benefit from a battery-powered range of up to 49 km (30.5 miles) in the NEDC.
The trunk lid is a functioning electrically poweredstorage component and has the potential to replace the standard batteries seen in today’s cars. The breakthrough showed that this material not only charges and stores faster than conventional batteries can, but that it is also strong and pliant. Qian H, Diao H, Shirshova N, et al.
superior safety profile of which offer great potential for hybrid and electric vehicle batteries as well as stationary applications (solar and wind powerstorage systems). Lithium iron phosphate is a cathode material the performance and. The Prayon Group is owned jointly by the Office Chérifien des. Phosphates (OCP S.A.)
The technology has the potential for use in a wide range of applications including the automotive industry and particularly the development of hybrid and electric vehicles.
The 50 Ah battery was designed to have a high energy density through the use of a conductive network with a proper dispersion of conductive materials, while the 20 Ah battery was designed to have a high power density for hybrid vehicles by reducing the internal resistance with an optimized electrode thickness. Daisuke Mukai et al.
Ioxus is targeting a number of markets for the iCAP: transportation drives or systems (comprising several specific sub-groups, notes Chad Hall, Founder and VP Sales); grid powerstorage; large regenerative energy capture (e.g., Start-stop for micro-hybrid applications. Material handling.
—Nanoscale ion storage materials including co-existing phases or solid solutions. The nanoscale ion storage materials are useful for producing devices such as high energy and high powerstorage batteries, battery-capacitor hybrid devices, and high rate electrochromic devices.
The project will include 13 different technologies from the substation to the customer, including distribution automation and control, smart meters and appliances, home area networks, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, energy and battery storage, and renewable generation sources. Primus Power Corporation (CA). 21,806,232.
The renewable energy captured by the project’s primary solar energy system will help power the production of fuel-efficient small cars, including Ford’s all-new Focus and Focus Electric going into production in 2011, and a next-generation hybrid vehicle and a plug-in hybrid vehicle coming in 2012.
According to figures from the German Ministry for the Economy and Energy (BMWi), 40 to 45 percent of power consumed in Germany is to be generated from renewable resources by 2025, increasing to 55 to 60 percent by 2035. The lifecycle of a plug-in or electric vehicle battery does not end after the vehicle’s operating life.
The direct current generated from sunlight can be used directly in production or temporarily stored in industrial energy storage systems to compensate for the volatile availability of renewable energies. This ensures a reliable power supply even in fluctuating grids.
Eagle Picher, in partnership with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, will develop a new generation of high energy, low cost planar liquid sodium beta batteries for grid scale electrical powerstorage applications. Electronville: High-Amperage Energy Storage Device-Energy Storage for the Neighborhood. Earlier post.)
As advancing electromobility brings new technical innovations, electrified vehicles will no longer just be consumers of electricity, but will also be able to feed power back into the grid, as needed. Think of our electrified vehicles as mobile powerstorage units. BMW Group Plant Dingolfing.
To address these issues, the researchers designed a LiS cell using a dual-type hybrid sulfur cathode and a lithiated Si/SiO x nanosphere anode with an optimized liquid electrolyte. sulfur battery system adopting alloy-type anode materials needs to be advanced further before they can penetrate the rechargeable battery market. —Lee et al.

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). Charge at home solves fully 95% of average charge need.
But after interviewing Ford’s Nancy Gioia at the recent Detroit Auto show, I’m now unsure of both the timescales involved, or how much the power and auto companies are behind it as a fundamental concept. Renewable is the energy equations equalizer for the non Muslim world. — Bada Bing 9. — t_F 10.
