What is EVSE and EVCS?

Setec Powerr

Two of the most commonly used terms in the EV charging realm are EVSE and EVCS. It refers to the hardware or the physical components required to convey electrical energy from an electricity source to an electric vehicle. EVCS, or Electric Vehicle Charging Station, is a more holistic term. What is EVSE?

Paul Scherrer Institute and Toyota RD team finds tiny memory effect in Li-ion batteries; implications for vehicle battery management systems

Green Car Congress

The memory effect of the battery is written in a cycle with partial charging (here, 50% of the battery’s storage capacity) followed by complete discharge. In the subsequent cycle, the memory effect is evident through an overvoltage (small “bump”) at precisely the same point at which the partial charging cycle terminates.

Your EV range anxiety is making the world ugly – just ask the Tesla Model Y | Opinion

EV Central

In the very near future, no one will be ugly, bored, or, sadly, employed, and if technology can manage all of those miracles it will surely also deliver us cars that can drive for 1500km, or more, and then recharge just by parking in direct sunlight for five minutes. I think a 100kWh (battery) is a good number.

KIT/IIT team demonstrates suitability of high-entropy oxides (HEO) as conversion materials for reversible energy storage

Green Car Congress

Novel materials can considerably improve storage capacity and cycling stability of rechargeable batteries. Among the most important properties of batteries are their storage capacity and their cycling stability, i.e. the number of possible charging and discharging processes without any loss of capacity.
