Volkswagen Group Technology unveiled pending electric car innovations in batteries, charging, and electronic components, with a focus on the electric drive system of the future. In addition to batteries and electric motors, Volkswagen is…

Ford stopped production of its top-selling electric pickup, the F-150 Lightning. Pre-delivery vehicle inspections discovered a possible battery problem. According to Ford, this doesn't apply to you if your Lightning is sitting at the…

A recent Nature Energy paper reports progress toward lithium-metal batteries that can charge in about an hour based on quickly grown lithium metal crystals. Using a crystal growing surface that lithium doesn't "like," the seed crystals grow…

Our natural world is endlessly inspiring. Recently, a team of scientists used a lizard species to create a "breathing" supercapacitor that performs better than those currently in use. Supercapacitors are sprinters when it comes to energy…

by Jon Gabay, engineer We are so manipulated in our society. Others dictate the technologies we will use and depend on without regard to ramifications. Poor planning and hip-shot reactions lead to wasted time and money, and the goals…

We use lightweight, high-capacity lithium-ion batteries in our personal electronics. These conventional lithium-ion batteries use organic electrolytes that are highly flammable and have caused fires or explosions. Researchers are…

Land Rover and Wolfspeed announced a strategic partnership to supply Silicon Carbide (SiC) semiconductors for next generation EVs, specifically for powertrain efficiency and extended driving range. Jaguar Land Rover intends to become carbon…

A significant challenge for undersea exploration is powering underwater cameras. Researchers can tether it to their vessel or send a ship and diver to recharge its batteries. MIT researchers are overcoming the challenge, developing a…

Let's face it; charging an EV takes more than a little time. Drivers want to charge and go quickly, but with current technology, speeding up the process can cause damage. Now, scientists have designed super-fast charging methods for…
