Brussels plant kicks off production for the new Audi Q8 e-tron

Green Car Congress

Around 160,000 units of Audi’s first electric model have been delivered since 2018. Named “Factory of the Future” in 2020 by the employers’ association Agoria, Brussels achieved this distinction as early as 2018. The site switched to green power back in 2012. AUDI AG has owned the Belgium site since 2007.

Electron sandwich doubles thermoelectric performance

Green Car Congress

It has been theoretically predicted that thermoelectric power factor can be largely enhanced when the two-dimensional electron layer is far narrower than the de Broglie wavelength. Here we experimentally clarify that an enhanced two-dimensionality is efficient to enhance thermoelectric power factor. x Nb x O 3 exceeded ?5?mW?m
