High-capacity GQD-coated VO2 nanoarray electrodes for high-performance Li- and Na-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers from Nanyang Technical University (NTU) in Singapore have shown high-capacity, high-rate, and durable lithium- and sodium-ion battery (LIB and NIB) performance using single-crystalline long-range-ordered bilayered VO 2 nanoarray electrodes. VO 2 nanobelts are beneficial to fast ion diffusion. Credit: ACS, Chao et al.

Why Warren Buffett is investing in electric car company BYD - Apr. 13, 2009

Tony Karrer Delicious EVdriven

MidAmericans David Sokol, BYDs Wang, and company advisor Li Lu flew with Sokol from Detroit to Omaha so that Wang could meet Buffett in person. One way or another, Sokol says, energy companies will need to produce more energy while emitting less carbon dioxide. tons of carbon dioxide. Electric cars will be one answer.
