KTSi trackside flywheel systems provide voltage support to overtaxed sections of electric rail systems, eliminating slowdowns, as well as capturing, storing and reusing the regenerative braking energy of rail cars. Kinetic Traction was formed earlier this year in the wake of the collapse of advanced flywheel energy storage company Pentadyne.

New plants in Germany and Europe are planned with a CO 2 -neutral energy supply from the start: Already, the entire electricity demand of the smart plant in Hambach (France) is obtained from renewable energy sources. Any resulting CO 2 -emissions are offset by qualified environmental projects.

Visedo also offers a supercapacitor-based energy storage system, based on third-party cells and Visedo’s own capacitor management system (CMS). The new buses are already in serial production, and the first vehicles are being delivered to various cities in France, for example Toulouse, Gaillac and Albi.

These rectennas would then convert the signal to usable DC electricity. HENRI BARDE; DATA FROM NATIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY LABORATORY (RESEARCH CELLS) AND FROM MANUFACTURER DATA SHEETS AND PRESENTATIONS (COMMERCIAL CELLS) With the flurry of renewed attention, you might wonder: Has extraterrestrial solar power finally found its moment?

The vehicles will be leased to selected customers in several European countries, including Germany, France and the Netherlands. Both energy storage units in the electric A-Class are the same as the battery in the smart fortwo electric drive. The cooling system is based on a low-temperature cooling circuit.

Now, the general consensus seems to be that having the [AC-to-DC] conversion happen off-board lightens the bus, and makes room for a bigger battery. As the batteries get denser, that bus will have more range, and maybe more flexibility, because the charging will happen with DC. We released a 24-kilowatt DC charger last year.

In the EU there are more than 330,000 public charging points, but 69% are concentrated in the Netherlands, Germany, and France, and only about 10% are fast charging stations. . Level 3 fast charging: 400-volt to 900-volt DC. Smart energy management balances the needs of the EVs being charged with the capacity of the grid. .
