As vital as it is for society to transition to renewable energy, it’s not as easy as simply swapping out fossil fuels for solar panels. To ensure they’re as efficient as possible, power infrastructures need powerful batteries to reliably house their excess generated energy for later use. Storage equipment has increasingly utilized carbon materials due […]
Energizer has designed a new lithium coin battery that releases a blue dye immediately upon interacting with moisture such as saliva. The marker offers parents a visible way to determine if their children accidentally swallowed one of these toxic products. After two decades of steady integration into everything from key fobs and remote controls to […]
EVs harness the magic of magnetism to turn the motors that propel them down the road. Get to know the basic technologies that power them.
The electric aircraft journeyed from Vermont to Florida, making many stops along the way. At Duke Field, the Air Force will test it out.
The first electrified Corvette features an electric motor between the front two wheels, giving the vehicle more muscle. Here’s how it works.
Dubbed ‘niobobaotite,’ a new type of ore found in China’s mine in Inner Mongolia could be used to boost rechargeable batteries and reinforce steel.
There are a bunch of exciting electric vehicles on the horizon—and Tesla is far from the only option. Take a look.
The Department of Energy is providing a nearly $400 million loan to a startup aimed at scaling the manufacturing and deployment of a zinc-based alternative to rechargeable lithium batteries. If realized, Eos Energy’s utility- and industrial-scale zinc-bromine battery energy storage system (BESS) could provide cheaper, vastly more sustainable options for the country’s burgeoning renewable power […]
The typical process of designing a vehicle can involve clay models and years of work. These tech tools helped BrightDrop move a bit faster.
This is no ordinary beach-town rental. We drove the BMW CE 04, an electric scooter that goes fast, weighs 509 pounds, and costs $11,795.
