Now, manufacturers have taken advantage of LFP’s lower fire risk to design batteries with high pack-level energy density, and LFP has become the EV industry’s fastest-growing cathode material. We looked at what the industry needed and where we had opportunity, and realized that our DRX cathode was really the star of the show.

Powervault units can also automatically charge using low-cost, off-peak energy from the grid. As well as reducing the cost of production of a Powervault, the use of second-life batteries will also optimize the life-cycle of the Renault batteries before they are recycled.

When he proposes steps to improve oil industry safety, we hope he won’t say, “Let’s make sure this never happens again.” And oil only seems cheap. Well, America’s auto industry delivered over 100,000. And no one asked what it would cost. That helped us become the world’s greatest industrial power.

And in any case, an inflexible approach to regulation has caused the cost of new nuclear to balloon – despite it being perhaps the most obvious solution to our long-term energy needs. Gas is the only answer. So that leaves gas with the task of keeping the lights on. Then came the shale gas revolution, pioneered in Texas.

Furthermore, changing the battery pack on say a Toyota Prius often costs a fortune, at least in most European countries, so such cars better be VERY cheap, but they’re not. But that cost in a built as an EV is much less than an ICE’s costs by about 1/2. Now add much cheaper materials and NiMH is now obsolete.
