Regardless of how or where you charge, not all the electrical energy pulled from the grid—those watts—will make it into the “fuel tank” (battery). EV batteries store and produce DC electricity, not AC electricity. DC fast chargers convert AC grid power to DC charging power in the charger itself, not in the vehicle.

When incorporated into resins, fuzzy fibers enable composites to be tailored for electrical and thermal conductivity, chemical and biological sensing, energy storage and conversion, thermal management and other properties. This is going to disrupt the way we think about materials.

Airplanes, for example, won’t be able to fly long distances on battery power. In addition, for many uses, energy can’t be used the instant it’s generated but must be stored for hours or days and transferred across continents or even oceans, neither of which is currently economically or technologically feasible.

It’s exactly the same as the unit in the new Qashqai e-Power that will go on sale soon after the X-Trail e-Power, including its maximum outputs of 116kW and 250Nm. The electrical output of the generator bolted to this engine will be a little less, because no energy conversion is ever 100 percent efficient.

Both the battery and the fuel cell use chemical reactions to produce electricity. More significantly it must be realized that hydrogen, just like a battery, is not an energy source in itself, but simply a means of storing energy. The Conversation [link] accessed 4/6/2020.

It is made up of an MTU diesel engine combined with an electric machine, which can be used as both a traction motor and a generator, and the MTU EnergyPack battery system, which stores the energy recovered during braking. As a result, local emission free, battery-powered operation, among other things, is possible.

Its fuel stores about 43 megajoules of energy per kilogram, and a current-model engine can convert that stored energy into thrust with an efficiency of around 40 percent. Advanced semiconductors, motors, and batteries are enabling energy conversion efficiencies above 90 percent and continuously improving the ratio of power to weight.

Paradox 1 - Soot: There's an apparent emissions paradox with plug-in hybrids (PHEV): Driving longer distances on battery power means more cold starts as the internal combustion engine (ICE) stops and starts up again after the batteries deplete. Cold starts mean more pollution.
