Study sees gradual, focused replacement of lead-acid SLI batteries by Li-ion batteries over next couple of years

Green Car Congress

A study by a team of researchers from Germany and South Africa forsees the gradual replacement of lead-acid SLI (starter, lighting and ignition) batteries with Li-ion batteries over the next couple of years. That will see an uptake of more hybrid-, plug-in hybrids and BEVs in the EU. —Ferg et al. Schuldt, J. 2019.03.063.

Bosch Passes 1M Mark for Start-Stop Systems

Green Car Congress

In the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), start-stop systems reduce fuel consumption, and thus CO 2 emissions, by up to 5%. In the NEDC urban cycle, the saving is as much as 8%. The system is rounded off by a crankshaft sensor, sensors on the pedals, and a deep-cycle resistant battery. Earlier post.)

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

Charged EVs

I could drive a Class 8 truck over a light-duty charger, and it will activate one pad of that truck and still charge. If we were acting like an antenna and radiating out, we would have high EMF emissions, and we would have to warn people about magnetic safety around our equipment. They can’t figure out how we do what we do.
