The authors also take a critical view of the discussion about electric cars in Germany, which centers around battery-operated vehicles when other technologies also offer great potential: hydrogen-powered electric vehicles or vehicles with combustion engines powered by green methane, for instance. We have pointed that out.

The basic idea behind ILUC is that biofuels use crops that might otherwise go to traditional uses, such as animal feed. Let’s say an automaker makes more battery-powered electric vehicles, thus using more nickel for the batteries. An uproar resulted in the related academic and business communities. Fair enough, you think?

The sustainability approach of Northvolt makes it a highly appealing company for us, that was furthermore very receptive to our ideas. In Europe, the BMW Group has already been manufacturing modules with supplied battery cells before using these modules to build complete batteries for plug-in hybrids and battery-powered electric vehicles.

By sharing ideas, companies can solve bigger challenges and help improve the industry. This is the first invention to enable battery balancing at any time, instead of only while charging, and it enables the use of lithium-ion batteries in electrified vehicles. —Kevin Layden, director, Ford Electrification Programs.

We don’t believe any one technology, whether batteries or fuel cells, can be as amazingly versatile as the internal combustion engine has been. We believe different types of vehicle will fill different niches, and it makes abundant sense to choose different power trains for different environments.
