An innovative thermal management device promises to slash charging times, boost range and minimize battery degradation in EVs. It’s called the Dectravalve and it can be fitted to any battery, no matter the chemistry. The device can independently cool or heat up to four independent battery zones with no cross-flow and a single inlet. Keeping … Continue reading “Breakthrough Device Promises To Cut Charging Times And Boost EV Range”

Chinese researchers found a way to extract all the lithium from a dead battery for reuse. They discovered a special process to reduce costs, speed up recycling and prevent harmful byproducts from spilling into the environment. America’s battery recycling industry is growing, but support from the current administration remains unclear. As electric vehicle adoption increases, … Continue reading “Nearly 100% Of Lithium Recycled In Latest EV Battery Breakthrough”

Renault’s new solution to extinguish electric vehicle fires can help first responders take out flames faster and more efficiently. EV fires are statistically rarer than ICE vehicles, but in the rare cases when EV batteries catch fires, it’s difficult to get them under control. The French automaker has made its EV fire safety tech freely … Continue reading “Renault Made A Breakthrough In EV Fire Safety. Now Others Can Use It For Free”
