Paired Power’s EV chargers let customers mix and match solar, storage and grid power

Charged EVs

The PairTree is an off-grid EV charger with solar, storage and two Level 2 EV chargers that can be set up in a day. These factors determine the best mix of solar, storage and grid power for a particular project. PairTree is an off-grid EV charger featuring a pop-up solar canopy, a 42.4 How much power is available at the site?

OSU hybrid “solar battery” uses photo-assisted charging to improve performance of Li-air batteries; “negative overpotential”

Green Car Congress

The basic concept of the integrated solar battery is to use the contribution of the photovoltage to reduce greatly the charging overpotential caused by the difficulty in efficiently electrochemically decomposing lithium peroxide (Li 2 O 2 ), the discharge product formed on the oxygen electrode. —Yu et al. Photo-assisted charging. (a)

Exeter team develops low-cost photoelectrode for spontaneous water-splitting using sunlight

Green Car Congress

A promising way of storing solar energy is via chemical fuels, in particular hydrogen as it is considered as a future energy carrier. The greatest challenge is to develop a suitable technology for large scale and cost effective solar fuel production to compete with fossil fuel. —Pawar and Tahir. Govinder S. Pawar & Asif A.
