PNNL study outlines requirements for grid storage, reviews four electrochemical energy storage systems: vanadium redox flow, Na-beta, Li-ion and lead-carbon

Green Car Congress

To be successful, systems will need to evolve—in some cases, considerably—to compete financially with the cost of natural gas production. The future grid will face significant challenges by providing clean power from intermittent resources to a much more dynamic load. 15 years) and a long cycle life (e.g.,

The promise of wireless charging: smaller batteries, longer battery life, fewer charging stations

Charged EVs

A lot of people don’t understand how that can be, but if you think about the topology of a charger, there’s the power electronics that are connected to the grid—that’s where the cabinet is—then there’s a cable going from there to where the vehicle is, and then there’s vehicle coupling. Lowest total cost of ownership of any charging system.
