Volkswagen introduces near-series design study of the MEB-based flexible quick charging station at Geneva

Green Car Congress

Connected to the grid or even off-grid, the station can charge up to four electric cars simultaneously, based on the principle of a ‘power bank’, two with DC quick charging. The charging station can be used as interim storage for eco-power; however, when connected to the mains power grid, it becomes a permanent charging point.

A wood-burning EV charger? – Charged EVs

Baua Electric

Then, it converts the residual heat energy into electric energy and stores it in a connected Battery Storage Module. The accompanying charging mechanism allows the stored energy to be used for off-grid EV and machinery charging. The three companies will host a demonstration event for the BioCharger in early 2024.

Continental Voltage Stabilization System with Maxwell Ultracapacitors to power start-stop in Cadillac ATS and CTS as standard

Green Car Congress

Unlike batteries, which produce and store energy by means of a chemical reaction, ultracapacitors store energy in an electric field. The excess energy required for restarting the engine is stored in this unit, which is recharged by the vehicle’s battery. The latter has two 1200F ultracapacitors linked in series.
