Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a global independent safety consulting and certificating company with more than a century of expertise innovating safety solutions.

C4V is a New York-based company that is developing a novel generation of Li-ion batteries, based on a composite 3.9 V cathode and semi-solid electrolytes. The startup is setting up a gigafactory in the state of New York together with a consortium called Imperium3.

The BMW Group, Northvolt and Umicore have formed a joint technology consortium in order to work closely together on the continued development of a complete and sustainable value chain for battery cells for electrified vehicles in Europe.

Olympian Sportsman, KONE, Jabil and BYD feature as Cornerstones of the IDTechEx Show!

A recent study, affiliated with UNIST has introduced a novel electric vehicle battery technology that is more energy-efficient than gasoline-powered engines. The new technology enables drivers to simply have their battery packs replaced instead of charging them. It also provides lightweight, high-energy density power sources with little risk of catching fire or explosion.

Enevate Corporation announced that LG Chem has participated in Enevate's recent funding. This investment is a nod to the viability of Enevate's technology which could enable Electric Vehicles to charge in the same time as gas cars without compromise.

Energy storage systems that are able to cope with fluctuating wind and solar power production are indispensable for the success of the energy transition. So far, however, location-independent and low-cost power-plant-scale storage systems have still been lacking.

Electric vehicles and most electronic devices, such as cell phones and laptop computers, are powered by lithium-ion batteries. Until now, manufacturers have had to design their devices around the size and shape of commercially available batteries. But researchers have developed a new method to 3D print lithium-ion batteries in virtually any shape.

The Battery Show is a unique opportunity for Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers in North America to showcase their capabilities in terms of electric powertrain solutions. With an impressive year on year growth, this event can be considered the main tradeshow to attend for those seeking to establish business relations in the EV industry.

The innovative collaboration of Voith and Siemens intends to broaden their relationship by defining potential forms of collaboration for appropriate hybrid power projects containing hydropower.

A leading African telecom integrator, will install the new GenCell A5 Off-Grid Power Solution at 800 telecom base stations across Kenya.

This coming November 14-15 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, leading players in the battery and energy storage industry will compete to capture the audience's attention over what technology is set to dominate in the coming decade.

Aggreko announces the full integration of energy storage pioneer Younicos. From today, Younicos will start trading as Aggreko.

Nippon Chemi-Con has developed a new line of conductive agents for active materials that increase the performance and durability of Li-ion batteries.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Tuesday 23 October titled Multifunctionality is the key next step for polymer composites.

This new technology will be used to provide silent, zero emission power.

This coming November 14-15 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, leading players in the battery and energy storage industry will compete to capture the audience's attention over what technology is set to dominate in the coming decade.

The performance breakthrough means that Innolith batteries will now cost between one third and one tenth per cycle compared to conventional Li ion batteries. This will enable more batteries to be deployed to harvest renewables, stabilise the grid through frequency regulation and provide other grid services.

Toshiba, aside from its work on LTO batteries, is also active in the development of solid-state electrolytes. In this article, IDTechEx outlines the company's work on composite electrolytes for Li-ion batteries

Materials scientists have sussed out the physical phenomenon underlying the promising electrical properties of a class of materials called superionic crystals. A better understanding of such materials could lead to safer and more efficient rechargeable batteries than the current standard-bearer of lithium ion.
