Li-ion battery maker EnerDel, Inc. The ESS is designed as a retrofit to replace the nickel metal hydride (NiMH)-based energy storage system currently used in Allison hybrid buses. The system is also suited for those interested in designing in lithium-ion technology from the onset, the company said.

million units, China will be the third-largest market for 48 V micro-hybrids despite having a more attractive total cost of ownership than 48 V micro-hybrids sold in the US. LTO is able to charge and discharge faster than other Li-ion batteries, but has a lower energy density. Europe will lead global demand with 2.6

Although NiMH is still the dominant battery in the high-voltage hybrid market, Li-ion technology started to take market share around 2009 and is expected to continually increase its share with time. According to the report’s baseline estimate, the global Li-ion xEV business will reach $3.8 billion in 2015 and $9.2

However, Hurst adds that the primary challenge facing the hybrid truck market remains the cost of the system. While the typical operating cost of a diesel vehicle is significantly higher than that of other drivetrains ($0.72/mile The Li-ion market is expected to reach 3.6 mile for diesel versus $0.60/mile

Leveraging some 20 years of experience and data reaching back to its early work with hybrids and the Ranger EV, Ford has developed a battery model and life validation protocol it now uses to predict how lithium-ion batteries are likely to perform under 10 years and 150,000 miles of use (40-season equivalent key life tests).

Despite significant progress, fuel cell durability must be substantially increased and/or the cost of replacement fuel cell stacks must be substantially decreased. Many participants believe that government support for larger deployments (50-100 vehicles), and bigger hydrogen bus purchases, will help to bring down bus costs.
