National Grid Underscores its Commitment to the Clean Energy Transition with Launch of National Grid Renewables. Rollout of new National Grid Renewables brand emphasizes the important role renewable energy will play in the company's efforts to decarbonize the energy system.

Arrival, the technology company focused on commercial electric vehicles announced it has raised $118 million from funds managed by BlackRock. The fundraising will be used to support execution of the company's growth plans as it ramps up vehicle production, including the launch of Arrival's first U.S. Microfactory in South Carolina.

Imagine a situation where, given a request, a lab automatically chooses what experiments to do, robotically carries this out, tracks the reaction with integrated sensors, acquires and analyzes the results, and then decides what experiment to do next. This seems like science-fiction, but certain truths may be closer than you think.

American company assembling high discharge rate Li-ion battery module, exploiting the high efficient cooling system design, for application in EV fast charging.

Xidas IoT is launching a new breed of self-charging batteries to minimize the battery-landfill dilemma by increasing the lifetime of the battery and reducing the times of replacement.

Industry leaders BTCPower, EVBox, EVOCHARGE™ join as Premier Partners to ensure better charge experience through tighter integration, broader interoperability, and more uptime.

IDTechEx caught up with Global Graphene Group (G3) Division president Adam Quirk.

IDTechEx caught up with CEO of NanoXplore, Soroush Nazarpour, about their developments over 2020.

LG Chem, Korea's leading manufacturer of advanced lithium-ion batteries, has strengthened its partnership with global inverter manufacturer SolarEdge to offer the most advanced home backup solution to date with training for installers.

Large supercapacitors cost thousands of dollars. They save millions of dollars when preventing self-destruction as with pitch control of the blades of a wind turbine in a storm when the electrics fail.

Elkem has received NOK 10 million in financial support from Enova to fund the initial planning of the potential large-scale battery materials plant in Norway, named Northern Recharge.

STAR BURST™ is a wet jet pulverizing device/high pressure homogenizer utilizing Sugino's original water jet technology.

Electric vehicle powertrains are much more materially diverse than the internal-combustion engine vehicles they replace. As a result, they are putting sudden and unprecedented strain on several raw materials industries.

Most legacy car makers need 15 years to switch to battery electric without collapsing. To keep their ICE cars legal and desirable, 50 are urgently upgrading them to 48V mild hybrids and many plan 48V full hybrids by a further upgrade. Peak sales $500 billion?

Air travel in cities is being strongly researched with about 200 companies developing vertical takeoff and landing VTOL aircraft. Almost all will fail because this is a very difficult, long term task in the face of inadequate batteries, tightening regulations and other impediments.

The world's first 'intelligent' electric vehicle battery was launched to the world by European EV battery producer, InoBat Auto (InoBat) in a groundbreaking announcement delivered by the company's CEO, Marian Bocek.

NAWA Technologies presents the Ultra Fast Carbon Electrode, a breakthrough nano-based innovation that unlocks next-level performance for all types of batteries, particularly those used by electric vehicles.

The new hybrid power system, which has been integrated with Aggreko's existing gas fired power station, is powered by more than 20,000 solar panels and supported by a 2 MW/1 MWh battery system. Once fully operational, it will reduce the mine's fuel consumption by 10-13% - the equivalent of removing 2,000 cars from the road.

IDTechEx attended 2 leading conferences on the impact of AI and autonomy for chemistry and materials science, from both R&D to production.

Hydro power from rivers is the largest zero-emission electricity producer but it is not usually in cities. In addition, it is becoming rather discredited because rivers dry up and the dams cannot be redeployed, they flood trees and vegetation which generates methane - a severe global warmer.
