BATTERIES

CWP Global has actually made progress with 3 new renewable energy projects in Serbia with 680 MW in total power generation capacity. The business's project Lederata Energy will certainly be a hybrid nuclear power plant consisting of a 50 MW solar park, a 100 MW wind farm as well as an energy storage system of 20 MWh.

Hithium launched the 300Ah Prismatic Cell customized for electric energy storage which can accomplishing "no" loss in the initial 3 three years of use. Hithium also launched the innovative 46mm large cylindrical cell featuring an innovative shape that results in a 10% decrease in battery expense as well as ultra-high safety and security requirements contrasted to normal prismatic cell.

The new project by e-Zinc is indicated to store 24 hours of energy which is about ten times that of traditional batteries. The project will be hosted at Eurus Energy America Corporation's (EEAC) Bull Creek wind energy farms, Texas, where excess wind energy will certainly be stored in the e-Zinc battery system.

Spain-based Mondragon Assembly has obtained a licensing arrangement for its license for "continuous string" process, which has been its intellectual property because 2013. This process includes manufacturing a continuous string, which means any type of damaging effects arising from "first" and also "last" cell can be gotten rid of, therefore increasing the device's performance by 10%, claimed the business.

SolarEdge has revealed it has been chosen to supply powertrain as well as batteries for the Fiat E-Ducato, likewise reporting its economic results.

Prime Planet Energy a JV of Toyota as well as Panasonic, has actually introduced it will certainly start production of prismatic lithium-ion batteries for hybrid cars in Japan

Tesla is offering a discount on solar panels and batteries to people who are affected by wildfire power outages, Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted today. More than 2 million people across California have been affected by power outages since October 25th as utility companies try to prevent their power lines from sparking new blazes. A fire just north of San Francisco has already consumed more than 66,000 acres and is only 5 percent under control.

The classical Greek philosopher Socrates believed the ideal house should be warm in winter and cool in summer. With clarity of thought like that, it's easy to see how the great man got his reputation.

Batteries power our lives: we rely on them to keep our cell phones and laptops buzzing and our hybrid and electric cars on the road. But ever-increasing adoption of the most commonly used lithium-ion batteries may actually lead to increased cost and potential shortages of lithium - which is why sodium-ion batteries are being researched intensely as a possible replacement. They perform well, and sodium, an alkali metal closely related to lithium, is cheap and abundant.

Europe’s battery manufacturing capacity is on the cusp of dramatic growth, though much of the investment and know-how are coming from Asian companies.
