Instead of a battery, the Gyrodrive system uses a magnetically loaded high-speed carbon-fiber flywheel to store the energy generated by a bus as it slows down to stop. The electric flywheel technology is particularly suited to applications that demand high symmetric power transmission at continuous cyclic duty cycle.

The project aims to comprehensively assess a low-carbon energy network composed of electric vehicles (EVs), rapid chargers, fixed battery stations, solar panels and a car sharing service. Mazda has adopted a policy to comprehensively improve its internal combustion engines and then progressively combine them with electric devices.

A new draft working paper published by the Carnegie Mellon Electricity Industry Center concluded that a PHEV pack comprising lithium iron phosphate cells would incur little capacity loss from combining vehicle-to-grid (V2G) activities with regular driving. The battery pack energy capacity was assumed to be 16 kWh.

V2G returns the energy stored in EV batteries to the grid. That means millions of electricity storage units – the batteries – are available to the electric grid to serve peak demand, with the vehicles recharging during non-peak hours. That’s Not How Drivers Think. Are there any insurance implications?

Part 1 of this two-part blog discusses the challenges facing electric utilities – both electricity generators and grid operators – with electric vehicle (EV) adoption coinciding with the electrification of buildings, heating, and industry. The battery can “tell” the grid how much power is available in its battery.

Charged : You recently wrote, “Commercial vehicle battery packs are tough to source.” Is the supply of battery packs going to be a bottleneck? Rustam Kocher: I think it’s going to be an issue for any company that has a large battery pack. Also, the demands for medium- and heavy-duty battery packs are much more complex.
