A composite blend of carbon fibers and polymer resin is being developed that can store and charge more energy faster than conventional batteries can. This material can then be used around the vehicle, replacing existing components, to store and charge energy. It is lighter than a standard boot lid, saving on both volume and weight.

Milczarek and Inganäs describe how a class of organic compounds known as quinones allows the lignin derivatives to shed a proton and store this electric charge in its place. Materials for charge storage are desired from easily accessible and renewable sources. Their research appears in the 23 March issue of the journal Science.

No Storage. Most countries regards Gas as strategic and store plenty of the stuff to cover supply disruptions. The current price cap is £1,138 a year for standard tariffs, but will rise to £1,277 in October. Without UK Fracking we are more reliant on gas imports. The cost of panels continues to slide.

The state of South Australia – a world leader in renewables – was an early leader in installing large grid-tied batteries when it built the Hornsdale Power Reserve in 2017 to ensure that renewable power remains stored to be used at dusk on these hot days. Electrek’s Take For us EV nerds, V2G has been a dream for a long time.

It optimizes energy consumption based on grid constraints, energy pricing, renewable energy availability, locally stored energy, preconfigured EV owner preferences, and driver needs. EV charging infrastructure operators need to adopt V2G standards like ISO 15118 protocol and invest in chargers with two-way transmission capabilities.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Currently, there are some industrial facilities that use battery swapping to replenish the energy stores of electric forklifts.
