Researchers at Hasselt University in Belgium are proposing a new class of solid composite electrolytes (SCEs) for Li-ion batteries: deep eutectic solvent (DES)–silica composites. These solvents share many attributes with the ionic liquids among which a low vapor pressure and nonflammability. —Joos et al.

While the MOF material has advantages in the simplicity and potentially low cost of manufacturing, the materials used to make it are more expensive than conventional carbon-based materials, Dincă said. We have a new material to work with, and we haven’t optimized it at all. It’s completely tunable, and that’s what’s exciting.

Van Hool is a Belgium-based independent bus, coach and industrial vehicle OEM. The module will also utilize fuel cell stacks manufactured through a high-volume, low-cost process. Ballard anticipates receipt of purchase orders under the ESA that will lead to delivery of these fuel cell modules to Van Hool in 2015 and 2016.

The cost of developing the Commodore 64: No one knows. The cost of developing the Commodore 64: No one knows. “I When the design of the Commodore 64 began, the overriding goals were simplicity and low cost. The initial production cost of the Commodore 64 was targeted at $130; it turned out to be $135.
