Hybrid crazy China: Supply and demand manipulation?
few days ago, China announced that it might spend up to $15 billion on new energy vehicles over the next 10 years. While the plan offers limited details, within 3 years China hopes to have 500,000 alternative vehicles on the road, and up to 5 percent alternative energy vehicle penetration within the next few years. Just EVs?

Peugeots Diesel 3008 Hybrid4
High-voltage NiMH battery pack. The NiMH batteries are located under the trunk sill, near the electric motor. Energy recovery. An energy recovery system enables kinetic energy to be transformed into electrical energy to recharge the NiMH batteries during deceleration (release of the accelerator and braking).

EcoMotor: Bigger than lithium batteries?
Bigger than NiMH? Tags: Energy Independence Fuel Economy Hybrid Cars MIsc. At least in the interim. Can we do better. What if today’s autos could be made 50 percent more fuel efficient without adding any costs? Might that not be the biggest thing to hit the auto industry in many decades? Bigger than lithium? Obviously.

Lutz Chats Volt with "Fellow Bloggers"
Asked why not Nickel Metal Hydride batteries in the Volt, at least to start, he says "NiMH just doesn't do it." Interestingly, Lutz says GM is being approached by NiMH manufacturers to use this proven battery chemistry in the Volt. And if Lithium proves problematic, he says GM will again consider NiMH. Well worth a listen.

Software Upgrade to Prius PHEV NiMH Conversion Kit Enables All-Electric Driving At Up to 70mph
kWh NiMH plug-in hybrid (PHEV) conversion kit that enables all-electric mode driving at speeds of up to 70 miles per hour (until the battery pack is depleted) in a converted Prius. But that can force the electric motor to run above its recommended speed range, said Ewert Energy Systems co-founder and vice president Andrew Ewert.

Volt, Re-Volt, No Volt - Will CARB Revolt?
In January GM announced the Volt, a smart idea that makes use of the two existing primary energy infrastructures - the electric grid and gasoline stations. With NiMH batteries - those that provide energy to every hybrid on the road and thousands of all-electric cars - the Volt plug-in hybrid could go into production today.

Researchers at Japans AIST Propose a Rechargeable Ni-Li Battery with Hybrid Electrolyte; Ultrahigh Theoretical Energy Density Plus High Power Potential
V) and a large cell capacity (268 mAh/kg), which together create an ultrahigh energy density. The theoretical energy density calculated using only the active electrodes and cell voltage for the Ni-Li battery is 935 Wh/kg. With the same calculations, NiMh offers 214 Wh/kg, and cobalt oxide Li-ion cells offer 414 Wh/kg. Li et al.
