HELLA will conduct real-world vehicle tests to evaluate NiZn’s ability in meeting the high-power requirements of 48-volt mild hybrid systems, while substantially reducing overall system complexity and cost. It’s inherently very safe and also promises to provide equivalent emissions reductions, but at a lower cost. Source: PowerGenix.

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

Saft manufacturers a range of advanced batteries for a large range of applications using lithium and nickel chemistries, including lithium-ion, lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl 2 ), lithium-sulfur dioxide (Li-SO 2 ), lithium-manganese dioxide (Li-MnO 2 ), nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd), nickel-hydrogen (Ni-H 2 ), and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH).

One of the hurdles in the race to develop automotive Li-ion battery systems for high volume hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicle programs is improving the technology’s durability. Unlike NiMH batteries, Li-ion can be tuned to increase power to boost acceleration, or to increase energy to extend driving distance.

However, Pike expects hybrid locomotives to have a strong return on investment (ROI), as a result of the ability to use low-cost batteries. Lead acid batteries cost less, weigh more, and will be used in many of the first hybrid locomotive applications. Advanced lead acid batteries will make inroads as well.

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).

With 3-D Zn, the battery provides an energy content and rechargeability that rival lithium-ion batteries while avoiding the safety issues that continue to plague lithium. For example, at ≥40% DOD Zn (percentage of theoretical utilization), Ni–Zn becomes competitive with Li-ion at the single-cell level.

If We could improve the battery pack of an ev we can improve the EV altogether and the improvements can be noticed in the, Safety of the EV The range offered by the EV Improved handling (The lighter the battery the lighter the EV) Maintenance cost gets reduced And the list goes on… So what are the ways we could improve an EV Battery?

If you want one now, know that youll spend far more than theyll cost when mass-produced. Though costs are now high, we believe automakers could sell PHEVs for only $2,000-$5,000 more than current hybrids. We will have similar solutions available for better (but more expensive) nickel-metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries.)

The lithium-ion battery comprises 168 prismatic cells and is liquid-cooled. The driver can program times for charging as well as preheating or cooling and adapt them to his or her requirements, such as departure time, so as to save resources and costs. kWh lithium-ion battery taken from the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron.

The costs and benefits of cars extend far beyond an individual driver to society as a whole. Studies estimate utilities might compensate car owners with $2,000-3,000 a year to "borrow" their storage capacity -- thereby helping to offset the incremental costs of plug-in hybrids. By then, theyll probably cost well under $1,000.

Furthermore, changing the battery pack on say a Toyota Prius often costs a fortune, at least in most European countries, so such cars better be VERY cheap, but they’re not. If these companies are ultimately successful and can convince EV manufacturers to ditch lithuim ion, we could depend on the already robust recycling program.
