Advanced Storage Battery Market from Hybrid Electric Vehicles to Cell Phones ( prminds.com ) - EVHUB.BIZ news updates


Bharatbook.com included a new report on "Advanced Storage Battery Market: from Hybrid Electric Vehicles to Cell Phones" which provides a concise, focused look on the world of rechargeable batteries 

Advanced Storage Battery Market: from Hybrid Electric Vehicles to Cell Phones report ( http://www.bharatbook.com/Market-Research-Reports/Advanced-Storage-Battery-Market-from-Hybrid-Electric-Vehicles-to-Cell-Phones.html ) assess Whether it is a battery for the latest laptop, energy storage for a hybrid electric vehicle, or backup power for a remote telecommunications site, everyone wants a battery that has the highest energy density, best safety factor, and longest life in term of discharge cycles and ease of maintenance while still being environmentally friendly. These are the drivers behind rechargeable battery research around the world today. Rechargeable batteries, also known as storage batteries, are a continuing strong market, with worldwide sales of $36 billion in 2008. The rechargeable battery market will rise to $51 billion by 2013. Lithium-ion is the battery chemistry of choice for future generations of portable electronics and hybrid and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. In 2008, lithium-ion battery research had more funding than all other battery technologies combined. Nanotechnology and chemistry advances in electrode design are the key research topics that companies are using to push lithium-ion to be the dominant energy storage technology in the future.

The portable rechargeable battery market, of which lithium-ion has a 75% share, is the fastest growing segment of the rechargeable battery market, showing world market growth of 20% in 2008. Nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries, still important for power tools and back-up systems, will decline rapidly in market share by 2013 due to stricter environmental controls on cadmium. And Ni-MH will see its market share slowly erode due to increasing lithium-ion market share and new silver-zinc and nickel-zinc rechargeable battery chemistries that are coming to market. But despite the growing portable rechargeable battery market share, tried and true lead-acid battery technology continues to head rechargeable battery sales with a U.S. rechargeable battery market share of 79% in 2008. Current research using carbon based cathodes means that we will see lead acid batteries hold their traditional stronghold markets of automotive, industrial, and telecommunications backup markets.

France to spend US$2.2 billion on network of electric car charging stations ( gizmag.com) - EVHUB.BIZ News update


As France’s car-makers push their plans to increase sales and give motorists more electric and hybrid-powered vehicle choices, the French Government has added its support by announcing it intends to spend €1.5 billion (about US$2.2 billion) on creating a battery-charging network for electric vehicles across the country. Part of its spend will also go towards further encouragement of clean vehicle technology and battery manufacturing.
The government says it will also make the installation of charging stations obligatory in new apartment blocks with parking lots, starting in 2012, and office parking lots by 2015. Environment Minister Jean-Louis Borloo told a press conference that a group of public and private fleet operators has already identified a need to purchase 50,000 electric vehicles through to 2015, and the government hopes this figure could be raised to 100,000 by pooling purchasing power.

Wireless, On-Road Electric Car Charging Could be a Game Changer (matternetwork.com ) - EVHUB.BIZ update


A German supplier of electronics and powertrain design to most of the major automakers for the last 25 years has just secured a patent that could be a game changer for electric vehicle adoption. Their technology would allow electric vehicles to be charged as they drive over any road embedded with a recessed wireless recharging strip, using electromagnetic induction.
Ingenieurgesellschaft Auto und Verkehr (IAV) says the technology will be available commercially within 3 years, is insensitive to weather conditions, and is not susceptible to mechanical wear.
As Wilfried Nitschke from IAV says, “The road is then the range extender.”
The concept of on-the-go roadway recharging for electric vehicles has been out there for a while. In August Nissan floated the idea along with closer-to-fruition ideas like wireless charging stands for the garage.
In fact, it is not untested technology. DARPA has long funded similar work at the PATH program at Berkeley; moving automated buses along set “tracks”, which is a relatively efficient way for buses to operate. Recently university researchers at the Korean Advanced Institute Of Science Technology have also been able to achieve 80% efficient transmission from the road up through a 1 cm gap, or 60% effective transmission when the space widened to 12 cm (nearly 5?) when they tested the technology to move a bus.

Service Vehicles Plug Into Electric Alternative ( cleantechnica.com ) - EVHUB.BIZ update

As many car makers are coming out with electric and hybrid vehicle options that appeal to the average driver, there’s hope that more of these alternative fuel options will be seen on the streets of North America and worldwide. However, with so many service vehicles on the street still contributing to carbon emissions, the impact of regular drivers making the change to electric vehicles just might not be as beneficial to the carbon footprint if these fleet vehicles do not get on board. Stepping up to the plate and the challenge, and pledging to plug into the electric alternative are the government and other private businesses who have voiced intent to purchase electric vehicles my makers like Ford over the next few years.

Electric Vehicles – Getting The Plug-Ins Plugged In ( environmentalleader.com ) - EVHUB.BIZ


It’s an exciting vision, really – a whole new generation of clean, energy-efficient plug-in electric vehicles capable of running for long periods from a single charge at home overnight. Then when parked at the office, school, or curbside, they could instantly and easily plug in for a recharge or someday even provide excess power to the electrical grid.
Cost savings, environmental pressures on reducing emissions, and energy security issues related to petroleum consumption all favor electric transportation. Automobile makers are seeing some success with electric drive systems – they’ve matured and proven hybrid-electric technologies and experienced good market growth, and are now developing plug-in vehicles. Consumers like the notion of electric vehicles too, and more will likely buy them as they continue to become more available, efficient and affordable.

Electric vehicles society seeks stringent regulations for EV players - wheelsunplugged.com


At a time when a regulatory body appears an unwelcome guest for any industry, Society of Manufacturers of Electric Vehicles (SMEV) which currently has 30 members from two, three and four wheelers besides the auto components manufacturers is seeking stringent regulatory norms to be imposed on players in the sector with the help of Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI). ARAI is an authorised testing agency under the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, since 1989, as notified by the Ministry of Shipping Road Transport and Highways, for testing and certifying vehicles and engines.
According to a senior representative of a leading electric two-wheeler company,” We are asking ARAI to make low-speed vehicle norms more stringent to restrict the entry of non-serious players in the sector. There are four-five serious players in the market, while the rest are simply fly-by-night operators, as told by the representative to ‘The Hindu Business Line’.

Lee Vows Full Support for Electric Car Industry




President Lee Myung-bak is looking to make the Korea's car industry the world's best. While noting the fierce competition in the global auto market, the President highlighted the rising importance of electric cars given growing concerns over environmental issues.

Presiding over a regular economic meeting at a car company's research center on Thursday, Lee promised that the government will fully support the industry in developing the core technology necessary to build electric cars.

On the same day related ministries announced plans to start mass producing electric cars by 2011 instead of 2013. To that end the government plans to financially support automakers' research and development efforts in creating "green" car technology and provide tax breaks and direct subsidies to customers who buy such cars.

Electric Cars in India: Why So Few? ( Published: October 08, 2009 in India Knowledge@Wharton )


With the rise of environmentalism and the high cost of gasoline, it would seem that the electric car would take off. Not so fast, says Bangalore-based writer Shoba Narayan in this opinion piece. Although companies like the Reva Electric Car Company are advancing the cause and major auto makers are likely to follow suit, Indian consumers need to be convinced they will achieve substantial savings and that there is enough infrastructure in place to support electric vehicles before they will be willing to open their wallets.
India has millions of people to house, power grids to expand and factories to fuel. They all involve hydrocarbons. How, then, is a developing economy to grow sustainably? One answer may lie in a small electric car being manufactured right here in Bangalore.
The Reva Electric Car Company (RECC) just announced a plan to build its second manufacturing unit, which some say will be the largest such facility in the world. Naturally, the new factory will meet LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) ratings standards, with rainwater harvesting, solar power and natural ventilation. With a capacity for 30,000 cars, the facility will be operational in two years, according to the company. RECC also plans to develop a larger sedan that will comfortably seat four, compared to its zippy but tiny current model. More importantly, the new Reva L-ion will have a range of 120 kilometers compared to the current model's 80 kilometers per charge. While the current car battery takes a few hours to charge, the new model will achieve 90% of its charge in an hour using a fast-charge port option. All very good -- but why aren't customers lining up?
