Monique closes her EV’s fueling port and heads onto the highway with enough stored energy to drive 640 kilometers (400 miles). Their energy density is as little as 10 percent that of lithium-ion batteries. To shrink them enough to fit in electric vehicles, you need to raise their energy density to that of lithium-ion batteries.

If you consider buying one, make sure you plan on spending time off-pavement seeking sand, mud and snow, as its DNA is far different from any other SUV on the market. Brake regeneration is where kinetic braking energy is converted into electricity when slowing or coasting, and that electricity then stored in the battery.

Several early models of passenger vehicles have enough energy stored in advanced batteries to power several homes for hours. Millions of EVs and PHEVs would expand the sale of electricity as an alternative to oil. No more Big OIL - think of the extra money stimulating the economy! 2:54 PM Anonymous said. 5:53 PM Anonymous said.
