EV startup AEHRA partners with Miba Battery Systems

Green Car Congress

By starting with a clean sheet of paper, rather than opting for an off-the-shelf solution, we can build strong synergies between AEHRA and Miba to ensure that not only does the battery pack fully complement the body structure, but that the body structure fully complements the battery pack.

More details about California’s proposal requiring bidirectional charging capabilities for all EVs

Charged EVs

A handful of bidirectional-capable EVs are available today, and automakers are quickly implementing the technology. The other piece is understanding why bidirectional vehicles and vehicle-to-grid are essential to our clean energy future in California. Between 30 and 95% we can do V2G without any effect on the battery warranty.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

It offers the solution to several significant transitions we need: moving society from burning fossil fuels to substituting renewable resource fuels such as solar, wind and biofuels; and from using fossil materials as fuel to using them for other recyclable uses. Distributed Solar and Wind with the PHEV. It is much more than that.
