Other consortium members include Ford, IAV, BP, University of Nottingham and Imperial College London. This compensates for turbo lag and is more cost-effective than integrating a 25 kW electric motor into the powertrain since only a 12-volt system is required, CPT notes. The project is being led by Jaguar Land Rover.

The low voltage approach compared with full hybrid and EV nominal voltages, which are typically in the range of 300 to 600V, avoids the need for high cost safety features and large battery packs. SR machines are ideally suited to this concept of low cost development, while reducing the cost of production components.

Developed by Kia’s European R&D centre, its ‘future technology’ diesel hybrid system employs a 48 volt lead-carbon battery, which powers a small electric motor to increase the engine’s output and cut exhaust emissions. —Allan Cooper.

In the UK, there are more than 32,000 public charging points with 1,800 ultra-rapid chargers, distributed relatively evenly across the country except for a high concentration in London . Level 1 slow charging: 120-volt AC. Level 2 slow charging: 208-240-volt AC. Level 3 fast charging: 400-volt to 900-volt DC.

Their solution to the cost of thenew-generation batteries is to separate them from the car itself. Buyerswill purchase the car – at about the same price as a conventional model –but lease the batteries from a third-party energy supplier for a monthly feeequivalent to the fuel costs for an economical petrol or diesel car.

they have a degree of autonomy beyond the reach of federal government and can often make tough decisions: for example, California’s climate goals and London’s congestion charging. At current transportation battery prices, that is well beyond the cost of spinning reserve. Powered by Blogrunner Latest From Green Inc.
