Industry study finds lead-acid to remain most wide-spread automotive energy storage for foreseeable future; new chemistries continue to grow

Green Car Congress

Currently all battery technologies have specific performance profiles that serve a well-defined purpose in automotive applications and continue to have an irreplaceable role in reducing CO 2 emissions from transport. The maximal charge voltage (of the legal limit of 60V) is still being defined by OEMs. Click to enlarge.

The promise of wireless charging: smaller batteries, longer battery life, fewer charging stations

Charged EVs

If we were acting like an antenna and radiating out, we would have high EMF emissions, and we would have to warn people about magnetic safety around our equipment. We have lower EMF emissions than the people who are trying to do low-power wireless. times more life expectancy for a battery versus a deep-cycle charging approach.
