UCR researchers find commercial fast-charging damages EV batteries, propose new internal-resistance-based technique

Green Car Congress

Commercial fast-charging stations subject electric car batteries to high temperatures and high resistance that can cause them to crack, leak, and lose their storage capacity, according to researchers at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) in a new open-access study published in the journal Energy Storage. Ozkan Lab/UCR).

UMD, Army Researchers design new electrolyte enabling high energy density rechargeable Mg and Ca batteries

Green Car Congress

Rechargeable magnesium and calcium metal batteries (RMBs and RCBs) are promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries because of the high crustal abundance and capacity of magnesium and calcium. A paper on their work is published in the journal Science. Yet, they are plagued by sluggish kinetics and parasitic reactions. Singyuk Hou et al.

Study finds Dutch EV drivers would prefer not to participate in V2G with current charging times; opposite true with fast charging

Green Car Congress

According to a new study by researchers from Delft University of Technology, in the context of current recharging time, Dutch EV drivers in general prefer not to participate in “vehicle-to-grid” (V2G) contracts, while the opposite is true in the context of fast recharging. fast recharging) on the preferences for V2G contracts.
