Thanks to a set of huge batteries, it doesn’t need a powerful grid connection. Its party trick is that it can deliver up to 400 kilowatts of power without needing a powerful grid connection. It can even output up to 1,000 kW if it’s connected to an external Megawatt Charging System (MCS) cabinet.

This technology uses silicon carbide technology and is best-in-class for power density, power conversion efficiency and safety compliance, the company says. The OBC is installed in hybrid or electric vehicles to convert alternating current (AC) from the power grid to direct current (DC) for charging batteries.

Airplanes, for example, won’t be able to fly long distances on battery power. In contrast, electricity produced by offshore wind power typically requires multiple conversions and transmission across long distances before it’s fed into the grid or an electrolyzer onshore, processes that siphon off power and reduce efficiency.

Several after-market companies have done PHEV conversions of the Ford Escape hybrid and one has done a retrofit of the F-150 pickup -- see Where PHEVs Are and ICE-Conversions.) Batteries powerful enough to achieve that would fill up the trunk of a car, he said. Has shown some concept fuel-cell PHEVs. Detroit News ).

Lead author Aniruddh Mohan and colleagues wanted to develop a method that evaluated the life-cycle costs and benefits for two battery-powered ridesource fleets and a gasoline-powered one. The analysis indicated that electrified fleets had 40-45% lower greenhouse gas costs per trip compared to the gasoline-powered version.
