Energy Independent Electric Boats and Ships Lead the Way

There is more energy to harvest at sea. True, water craft have stronger resistance to overcome but on balance, it means that energy independent electric boats are more common than their equivalents on land or in the air and they have lessons for both.

Removing cars from cities: Perfect storm

RethinkX and Barclays Research have issued carefully prepared research concluding that the global peak for cars will be in only a few years. Analysts IDTechEx say around 2030. Most experts see it as inevitable.

Ship energy independence from multimode energy harvesting

It is now becoming clear that the appalling emissions from ships that cause global warming and local injuries can be virtually eliminated.

Here comes over capacity of lithium-ion batteries?

IDTechEx forecasts no let up in the growth of the global lithium-ion battery market even in 2027. These batteries are now steadily replacing lead acid in its last strongholds such as mobility vehicles for the disabled, fork lift trucks, golf carts and cars though there is a long way to go in each case.

Improving understanding of the quantum world with quantum dots

Quantum behaviour plays a crucial role in novel and emergent material properties, such as superconductivity and magnetism. Unfortunately, it is still impossible to calculate the underlying quantum behaviour, let alone fully understand it.

Banning Internal Combustion & Diesel Vehicles by 2040 #TechRoundUp

Dr Richard Collins & Dr David Pugh discuss the latest EV developments on this weeks IDTechEx #TechRoundUp

Sono Motors energy independent vehicle impresses

Sono Motors in Germany has officially launched its solar electric car Sion in Munich with first deliveries expected in 2019.

Electric buses: strong basis for forecasting ongoing boom

In this article Dr Peter Harrop examines the ongoing growth of the electric bus market.

Fiat Chrysler belatedly electrifies but how?

CEO of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) Sergio Marchionne plans for more than half of its Maserati lineup to be electrified by 2022, but the detail is, as yet, unclear.

Energy independent vehicles key to solving grid problems

IDTechEx Chairman Dr Peter Harrop gives his view on the recent announcement from the UK National Grid that peak impact of electric cars in the UK will be equivalent to capacity of 6 nuclear plants.

Huge orders to come for electric buses

Cars are so yesterday. By contrast, the demand for buses will power on up, with no peaking for decades.

Energy Independent Electric Vehicles Overview

Energy Independent Electric Vehicles (EIVs) are the end game and IDTechEx will be showcasing the opportunities at their next event.

VS Particle Technology

VSParticle was established in 2014 and is a spin out from Delft University of Technology. The University had been developing the technology for 15 years and the IP is now being commercialized by VSParticle.

Will Last Mile Vehicles be Energy Independent?

"Last mile vehicles" refers to vehicles used to take people and goods to their final destination.

Energy Independent Electric Vehicles: Big Companies & New Technologies

EIVs are an idea whose time has come.

Embracing The Commercial Opportunity & Technology Roadmap for EIVs

Energy Independent Electric Vehicles (EIV) are the end game and IDTechEx will be showcasing the opportunities at our latest event - Energy Independent Electric Vehicles: Land, Water & Air - taking place in the EIV hub that is Delft, Netherlands: 27-28 September 2017.

Researchers create very small sensor using 'white graphene'

Researchers have found a way to create and clean tiny mechanical sensors in a scalable manner.

100 kW airborne wind energy system

The TU Delft spin-off Kitepower is developing a 100 kW airborne wind energy system to complement diesel generators in remote locations with a cost-competitive green energy solution.

Robot ships will be energy independent

IDTechEx reports on electric boats correctly predicted the advent of autonomous electric ships. We even see them becoming energy independent using such things as solar roads as rugged decking and airborne wind energy in the form of tethered drones flying at up to 1000 meters where the winds are consistent and have four times the energy.

Hyundai comeback on buses

Hyundai used to be a leader in buses but the explosion of the huge, protected Chinese market has resulted in the global leaders consisting entirely of Chinese companies growing their sales rapidly - mainly with pure electric buses - and Daimler, with declining sales.
