Researchers in the Cockrell School of Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a new family of anode materials that can double the charge capacity of lithium-ion battery anodes. By comparison, realized capacity in a graphite/copper composite anode is only ~ 150 mAh g -1. Earlier post.). Kreder, III, Brian T.

The fuel engine on the Volt is used to run the generator to recharge the battery when a trip exceeds 40 miles, and it’s rage on a full tank is around 400 miles. How about using a competition sailplane for comparison, instead? It is also flex so that future biomass fuels such as cellulosic ethanol, methanol can be used (no oil).

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. That way you have a fair basis of comparison, you know, apples to apples and all that jazz. The car is expected to cost around $40,000.
