Battery TechnologiesCan quasi-solid-state lithium batteries deliver greater safety and durability?
Japanese researchers claim a new quasi-solid-state battery design outperforms contemporaries by being both fireproof, more durable and higher in overall performance
-
Battery TechnologiesCeramic solid-state battery offers 1000km range
Longer ranges for electric boats with faster recharging could be the result of this breakthrough which uses a silicon composite anode.
-
Battery TechnologiesCan non-flammable EV batteries outperform lithium?
While range anxiety tops electric propulsion worries for consumers, boat builders fret about potentials fires and liability risk. Could a new non-flammable, high performance battery under development in the US prove the answer to both concerns?

Battery TechnologiesLeveraging machine learning to build better batteries
Japanese researchers use machine learning algorithms to identify battery components which deliver an optimum balance of high performance and lower cost
-
Battery TechnologiesMercedes-Benz operates ‘circular manufacturing’ battery recycling plant
A new purpose-built facility that has a 96% recovery rate of valuable metals could help drive down new battery prices.
-
Battery TechnologiesNew battery pack design software to help reduce development costs
The creators of electric vehicles and boats now have access to a new type of battery design software, aimed principally at those producing as few as 100 battery packs per year.
-
Battery TechnologiesGreater flexibility for recharging with new battery configuration switch
New development could help of high-performance electric boats, many of which use automotive style 800V battery banks, to recharge from the more numerous 400V outlets
