Like the Beatles in the 60s, Tesla has arguably achieved the feat of being simultaneously the best and most popular at what they do. As the IDTechEx report "Electric Vehicles: Land, Sea & Air 2021-2041" discusses, Tesla enters a new market and quickly becomes the top-selling electric vehicle maker. In this article, we focus on Tesla's innovations in the field of power electronics and some of the new materials opportunities being created.

Irizar e-mobility and Ibil signed a collaboration agreement to give a second life to electric bus batteries. Consequently, the batteries that Irizar produces and installs in its buses, and their power electronics, will be reused as energy storage elements in the charging facilities that Ibil is developing and deploying.

Jaguar are set to to become an all-electric brand by 2025 as part of a new global strategy announced by Jaguar Land Rover this week. This strategy will also see all Jaguar and Land Rover nameplates to be available as pure-electric by 2030 with the aim of achieving net zero carbon emissions across their entire supply chain, products and operations by 2039.

NatWest Group has today launched a joint offering with green energy tech company Octopus Energy to help people and businesses go green, demonstrating the bank's commitment to playing an active role in tackling climate change as part of its purpose-led strategy.

Electrically Conductive Adhesives: Fundamental Principles, Materials and Uses

IDTechEx expects electric motorcycle sales in Europe, the market with the most potential for high power electric two-wheelers, to grow at least 50% year-on-year in 2020, building on the momentum of recent years.

With more than 1TWh of battery capacity installed in the ten-year forecast and a market size of $56bn, the "Batteries for Stationary Energy Storage 2021-2031" report shows the fast-growing scale of this market, analyzing the main technologies involved in this energetic revolution.

The aviation industry is responsible for 3% of global manmade CO2 emissions and has the challenging objective to reduce these emissions in the next decade significantly. Unlike road transport, aviation cannot switch to electric or hydrogen propulsion yet and therefore depends on sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). SAF purely made from air via direct air capture technology and renewable electricity offers a carbon-neutral solution suitable to meet the industry's high demands for renewable fuels in the future.

ION Energy has entered into an agreement to supply battery management systems to electric scooter startup, Ray Electric Motors.
