KAUST uses laser pulses to boost performance of MXene electrode

Green Car Congress

The researchers hope that this strategy could help to engineer an improved anode material in next-generation batteries. Graphite contains flat layers of carbon atoms, and during battery charging, lithium atoms are stored between these layers in a process called intercalation. A paper on their work is published in the journal Small.

How clean is EV battery manufacturing?

Electric Auto Association

Scientists inform us that today’s transportation sector is the largest contributor to US greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change, but how clean are lithium-ion batteries? First, it should be noted that while internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles produce 17.2% years if the car is charged using renewable energy.
