Also, when vehicles have more opportunities to charge using wireless technology, you can spread the charging load out over time, reduce peak load, and reduce the need to build new substations. We did a study for a global logistics company that showed our wireless charging solution could reduce their total energy costs by up to 50
Toyota says its breakthrough batteries will hit the market in 2027 or 2028, giving its EVs 745 miles of range—significantly greater than any gas-powered car today—with 10-minute charging times
EV charging is a sector in constant evolution and there are constantly new technologies in development. Some of the technologies being developed now are: Dynamic Load Management. Integration between EV
Volkswagen''s prototype battery retained 95% of its storage capacity after over 1,000 charging cycles, per the press release. That''s equivalent to driving an EV about 311,000 miles.
EV charging infrastructure could become a bottleneck for growth. As EVs have become increasingly affordable, one of the primary barriers for consumers is no longer cost but charging convenience. In McKinsey''s 2020 ACES Consumer Survey, potential EV drivers put the lack of charging infrastructure at the top of the list of barriers to expanded
The performance of dynamic wireless charging technology has improved considerably since the early 1990s, but cost still remains an obstacle to adoption. Current estimates range from US$1.8 million
Standard EV chargers that consumers can buy tend to provide less than 150 amps, the blog added. The potentially new system could be used to "deliver 4.6 times the current of the fastest available
Charging up. Charging speed is "very important" for EV uptake, especially as EVs start to gain ground in the market against gas-powered cars, says Jiayan Shi, an analyst for BNEF, an energy
As the charging technology spreads around the country, more manufacturers will add receivers to new models and retrofit their older models with receivers. Once outfitted with wireless receivers, EV drivers can take advantage of in-road wireless charging that allows drivers to charge while moving. Speeding Up EV Charging
Airbnb hosts can purchase these special EV charging packages through a new dedicated online store that offers the charging hardware, installation services, and support services, all in one place.
August 23, 2023. CATL''s new Shenxing batteries could speed EV charging. CATL. Chinese battery giant CATL unveiled a new fast-charging battery last week—one that the company says can add up to
While sales have slowly ticked up for years, they''re now soaring. The emissions-free cars and trucks will likely account for 13% of all new auto sales globally in 2022, up from 4% just two years
That''s faster than virtually all EV charging today, and CATL claims the new cells, which it plans to produce commercially by the end of 2023, will "open up an
New features and innovations are being introduced every year as new technological domains develop and grow. This expansion is also being fueled by increasing developments in the EV charging network, EV battery technology, cheaper EV pricing, ongoing improvements to vehicle range, and the steady stream of new EV models.
The potentially new system could be used to "deliver 4.6 times the current of the fastest available electric vehicle chargers on the market today by removing up to 24.22 kilowatts of heat," NASA said.
The move to OCPP 2.0.1. Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) is an application protocol for communication between electric vehicle charging stations and a central management system. It is an international, open-source, vendor-independent standard which is available for free. The latest version, OCPP 2.0.1, has new and
Fortunately, EV charging technology is rapidly evolving, and there are several exciting innovations on the horizon that promise to make EV charging more convenient and efficient than ever before. 1. Wireless Charging and establish regulations that require new buildings to include charging infrastructure. By creating a supportive
The technology enabling wireless EV battery refills is under progressive development. In 2020, the wireless EV charging market was valued at $6.9 million. By 2030, it is forecasted to reach $207.4 million. The concept of wireless charging is also in the spotlight of such giant automakers like General Motors, Nissan, Volvo, or Tesla.
EV charging is a sector in constant evolution and there are constantly new technologies in development. Some of the technologies being developed now are: Dynamic Load Management. Integration between EV charging and existing payment systems. OCPP 2.0: more security, more control, more information. ISO 15118: EV identification through
Ionna, the EV charging company backed by seven automakers, is beginning to take shape. Late last year, seven automakers — BMW, Honda, General Motors, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, and Stellantis
Charging while driving. This is the holy grail of electric car technology; the ability to power a car as it drives over chargers embedded into the surface of the road. As part of its development
Removing more heat to shorten EV charging time. EV charging stations and other types of electronics rely on liquid cooling systems to remove heat from within their wires. Increasing the current through a charging cable using this method would require larger conductive wires and more liquid coolant, making the cable heavier and difficult for
A new study from researchers at MIT uncovers the kinds of infrastructure improvements that would make the biggest difference in increasing the number of electric cars on the road, a key step toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transportation. The researchers found that installing charging stations on residential streets, rather than
U.S. EV AUTO SECTOR: The rollout of more charging stations will encourage EV adoption in the United States. That could potentially boost sales for automakers like Ford Motor Co (F.N), General
1. More Miles per Charge. Image via Peter Fazekas. Last year, we reported that 2023 would ring in more range for electric vehicle owners, giving them cause to spread the word about the EV revolution. That prediction came true, with the Tesla Model S and Lucid Air yielding ranges over 400 miles per charge.
At the end of 2022, there were 2.7 million public charging points worldwide, more than 900 000 of which were installed in 2022, about a 55% increase on 2021 stock, and comparable to the pre-pandemic growth rate of 50% between 2015 and 2019.
