MAHLE Powertrain and Allotrope Energy have unveiled a new battery technology which offers ultra-fast recharging coupled with good power density. Lithium-carbon battery. A 500 Wh conventional lithium-ion battery would require a recharge mid-shift that, even with a fast-charger, would take more than 30 minutes.

The main type of battery used is Lithium-ion and when the charge is depleted the batteries can be recharged again. In fuel cell cars we do not have to recharge the battery. Air pollution from cars running on petrol and diesel contributes to early mortality, cancer, bronchitis and asthma. fine particulate matter pollution).

The introduction of electric vehicles on a large scale in the UK can only have a beneficial effect on CO 2 emissions if low-carbon electricity, universal broadband provision and smart grids are in place to support the transition, according to a new report published by the UK Royal Academy of Engineering.

The average cost to trial participants for recharging at home is between 25p and £1 (US$0.40 The results form part of the CABLED project, which will see an overall total of 110 ultra low carbon vehicles from different manufacturers, tested on the roads of Birmingham and Coventry as part of a £7.5-million and $1.60) per day.

To this end, more needs to be done to encourage consumers to buy alternatively-powered vehicles, for instance by putting in place the right incentives and deploying recharging infrastructure across the EU.

Volvo Car Group (Volvo Cars) will reveal the Volvo S60L PPHEV (Petrol Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) Concept Car at the 2014 Beijing International Auto Show. In the default hybrid mode, the carbon dioxide emissions are about 50 g/km. The recharging time varies with the amperage. Click to enlarge. S60L PPHEV Concept.

But the efficiency equation is more complicated than that because, unlike petrol pumps, recharging stations do not transfer energy perfectly. Some people will use this information to adapt their choices about where and when to recharge. For them, recharge efficiency might be just as important as MPGe rating.
