DOE releases Energy Storage Grand Challenge Roadmap; 44% reduction in manufactured cost for 300-mile EV pack by 2030

Green Car Congress

The Roadmap includes an aggressive but what it says in an achievable goal: to develop and domestically manufacture energy storage technologies that can meet all US market demands by 2030. kWh levelized cost of storage for long-duration stationary applications, a 90% reduction from 2020 baseline costs by 2030.

UC Davis researchers suggest we may be at the beginning of a real hydrogen transition in transportation

Green Car Congress

In many respects, hydrogen FCVs could offer features that are similar to today’s gasoline cars and are more challenging to achieve in battery-powered vehicles, including good performance, large vehicle size, refueling time of 3-5 minutes and a range of 300-400 miles. —“The Hydrogen Transition”. Transition issues. Public funding.

Clearing the roadblocks to electrification of heavy-duty trucks

Charged EVs

Furthermore, the case for electric trucks and buses would seem to be an easy one to make. million miles. million miles, so the engineering that goes into making those vehicles be able to perform and last that long has to apply to the battery pack as well. Therefore, electrifying them is critical to reducing emissions.

Mad Power thoughts

EV Info

Yet whenever we troublemakers raised this issue, we were told not to worry – it would resolve itself, they said, either because wind is usually blowing somewhere, or through the development of electricity storage in giant battery farms. The cost of grid management has soared to nearly £2billion a year in the last two decades.

Liquid Air Energy Network forms in UK; focus on transportation and energy storage

Green Car Congress

LAEN, which was an outcome of the report, will serve as the global hub where new ideas are demonstrated and shared, and promote liquid air as a potential energy solution among researchers, technology developers, manufacturers, energy producers and consumers, and government. At 300 bar, air has a specific energy of 140 Wh/kg (0.5MJ/ kg).
