5 Kriterien zur Bewertung von Batteriematerialien
With researchers testing different materials for a fresh take on the battery, how should we assess whether a certain material is a viable option? Integrating materials like silicon, graphene, and even sodium into battery chemistries is currently being studied. Here are 5 factors to consider when assessing whether a certain […]
Die Rolle von Batterien in einer IoT-Zukunft
What is the “Internet of Things”? Our world is more connected than ever with the help of the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT refers to the multitude of “things” connected to the Internet, collecting and sharing information or allowing users to perform or initiate functions without even being physically present. […]
MIT-Studie: Second-Life-Batterien bieten Vorteile für die Netzspeicherung
There’s big news in the battery world. A new modeling study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) reported that second life batteries from the electric car industry could be reusable for grid storage in solar operations. As electric vehicle (EV) adoption grows, and with states like California phasing out gasoline-powered vehicles, there […]
Was sind Kaltladebatterien?
Cold can be a threat to car batteries. Drivers in below-freezing temperatures routinely must deal with dead batteries that need a jump. However, researchers at Penn State University developed a solution to this problem. The new battery they developed has an extra material layer that enables cold charging. How the Cold-Charging Battery […]
Der Weg zu Leichtbaubatterien
Weight is a critical factor in the development and advancement of portable and mobile battery-based technology. The gradual reduction in size and weight of the battery has allowed the adoption of mobile technology to flourish in the past few years. Take the cell phone as an example, the first portable […]
Untersuchung der Vorteile von Graphen-Batterien
You’ve likely heard of some common battery types, such as lithium ion, that are helping to power the future. However, there’s a new contender for most-promising battery solution – graphene. Graphene batteries leverage their namesake material, which sees carbon atoms bind together in a honeycomb lattice pattern to form an […]
Warum ist ein Batteriemanagementsystem wichtig?
A battery management system allows users to monitor individual cells within a battery pack. As cells work together to release energy to the load, it is crucial to maintain stability throughout the whole pack. This is where a battery management system (BMS) comes into play. A BMS allows for constant […]
Teslas bevorstehende Batterie-Innovationen
Tesla’s Battery Day, where upcoming projects and innovations are announced to investors, was held at the end of September. There were two anticipated announcements: the million-mile battery and a battery price point of $100/kWh, the price at which analysts believe would officially place Electric Vehicles on par with Internal Combustion […]
MRI-Scans und Batterien
One of the biggest challenges in the development and optimization of battery technology is difficulty in observing what’s happening inside of the battery itself. However, there’s a new ally in the movement toward the future of energy storage – magnetic resonance imaging, also known as MRI. This technology, which commonly […]
Batterien: Ein Tag im Leben
You may not realize it, but batteries – and the latest innovations in the battery industry – impact nearly every part of your day-to-day life. Batteries have always helped power the world, but their applications and importance are growing all the time, particularly in the wake of movements for cleaner […]
Introduction to Supercapacitors
Though most common, chemical batteries are not the only way to store energy. Another device that is constantly being researched and improved is the supercapacitor. The supercapacitor stores electricity as static rather than chemical energy. While they can’t match up to batteries in energy capacity, they do have clear advantages […]
Robotik in der Prothetik
When you think of batteries and, more specifically, Arbin’s role in the research that is driving the battery industry forward, it’s likely you picture electric vehicles and other stalwarts of the industry that have gained momentum and become more visible over the past several years. However, Arbin’s role in the […]
Reichweitenangst-freies Elektrofahrzeug
Weeks after a potential million-mile battery was announced, automotive company Lucid Motors has announced a new all-electric vehicle with a range of 517 miles. Most EVs currently on the market have a range of 200-300 miles. Currently, Tesla has the EV with the longest range at about 400 miles. The […]
What is a flow battery?
A flow battery, also known as a redox flow battery (from the words reduction and oxidation), is a liquid-based rechargeable cell. In a traditional battery, the electrolyte is the medium through which electrons can travel between the cathode and anode. In a flow battery, the anode and cathode themselves are […]
Die Rolle der Netzspeicherung in intelligenten Netzen und intelligenten Städten
Grid Storage What would the city of the future look like? With the advent of technology, people have been speculating for decades what a future fully integrated with technology would look like. Nowadays, a city of the future is expected to not only integrate technology and the Internet of Things […]
Wie Batteriematerialien die Effizienz von Batterien beeinflussen können
The chemical composition of a battery can be very delicate. The active materials within the cell work together in the energy releasing process and the choice of materials can determine the efficiency of the battery. However, undesired chemical reactions can also occur, affecting the safety and longevity of the cell. […]
Bahnbrechende Batterie für Elektrofahrzeuge mit einer Million Kilometer Reichweite
Chinese car battery manufacturers CALT announced that it is ready to produce a battery that can last for 1.2 million miles across the span of 16 years. This is double the lifespan and eight-times the mileage of current EV batteries, the best of which are typically warrantied for up to […]
