A closer look at why heat pumps are dominating EV HVAC systems

Charged EVs

In an EV, while using the HVAC won’t detract from the maximum output of the traction motor, it does still demand energy from the battery, so there will be a hit to range. Furthermore, the heating system exacts no penalty on range for the ICE vehicle, but definitely increases energy consumption in an EV.

Fast, Efficient Neural Networks Copy Dragonfly Brains

Cars That Think

In my research at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, I study the brains of one of these larger insects, the dragonfly. Developing these sophisticated systems requires massive amounts of processing power, generally available only to select institutions with the fastest supercomputers and the resources to support them.
