Innovations and breakthroughs come out as a delightful surprise to any industry and the same is the case with the EV sector. Recently only a team of scientists from Korea had discovered ways to improve the overall range of EV vehicles. They have invented technologies using silicon anode material that nearly multiplies the battery capacity by four times as compared to traditional graphite anode material.

What happens when we standardize things? Well, the answer is pretty simple, you will benefit from producing more in minimum time. Even though this thought came a little late to EV manufacturers in India, it can be safely assumed that “better late than never”. In a concentrated effort to standardize various parts that go into an electric vehicle, OEM’s and organizations have come together to a common ground recently.
Kochi (Kerala) got introduced to e-rickshaws the last year and the response from both the drivers and the customers were over the roof. This had resulted in the formation of a new agreement between the Auto Driver’s Union and two manufacturers to get 250 more e-rickshaws to run across the city within a span of a few months.
Cellestial E-Mobility, a Hyderabad based startup has rolled out its first prototype electric tractor. This tractor is economical to operate, as powerful as a diesel tractor,
while consuming less energy. With features like with features like battery swapping, regenerative braking, AC charging, battery that can act as a UPS, this product will be very beneficial to the agriculture industry. The best part the electric tractor will be cheaper than equivalent diesel tractors. We spoke to Mr Syed Mubasheer , founder of Cellestial E-Mobility and asked him some questions on this very interesting product. Guest Post : Archit K from EternalGreen Innovation It is clear that Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) are here to stay. With the MG ZS EV, Tata Nexon EV, and several new and exciting announcements this Auto Expo, it is clear that the OEMs are also bullish on EV market. In the first two months of 2020 alone, a large number of MG ZS EVs were booked and over 2000 Tata Tigor EVs were ordered. This puts the total number of electric car sales in 2020 so far at twice that of 2019.
Guest Post : Ajay Maurya from EternalGreen Innovations Indian metropolises faced with the challenges posed by rapid immigration and pollution. There is an urgent need to take care of micro-challenges being faced by early adopters of EV. The first wave of EV adoption will happen at B2B/commercial level by fleet operators and corporates for urban transportation. We can say with high certainty that successful EV's adoption will significantly depend upon how effectively a fleet operator can monitor and manage these EVs.
By Strom Motors Strom Motors an EV start up based out of India is all set to launch Strom-R3, a reverse trike all electric urban mobility solution. Strom-R3 is the first reverse trike vehicle to receive homologation certification in India. Strom Motors was the winner of the coveted Spirit of Manufacturing Award at TiECON Global Summit held in November 2019 at New Delhi, India. Strom-R3 has received widespread recognition including as a top 10 startups by Government of India in early 2018 and by Economic Times.
By Atul Gopal I was invited by the Pune International Centre (PIC) to attend a lecture on the topic, 'New Mobility'. The lecture was be delivered by Mr. Anup Sable - Chief Technology Officer (CTO), KPIT Technologies. Here is my writeup on the lecture, where Anup spoke about the disruption happening in the automobile sector.
by Dr Peter Harrop, Chairman, IDTechEx Electric Vehicle motors have lasted for over 100 years and their design has changed slowly. During the last few years they have been subject to rapid technology change and they are also part of an acquisition frenzy. What is going on? The new IDTechEx report explains and - in over 30 ten-year forecasts and roadmaps - predicts.
What are the numbers that stand out when you DC fast charge an Indian electric car?
What is the average rate of charging? How much time does it take to fast charge an Indian electric car? How much electricity is consumed per session? Watch the video and check out the numbers in this article. By Nimesh Shah Government of India recently released a notification titled ‘Charging Infrastructure for Electric Vehicles – Guidelines and Standards -reg.’. Availability of adequate charging infrastructure is acknowledged as a key requirement for accelerated electric vehicle adoption in the country. In accordance, setting up of Public Charging Stations (PCS) has been de-licensed and any individual/entity is free to set up public charging stations, provided the stations meet the technical as well as performance standards laid down.
This week, Elon Musk showcased a concept tunnel that could revolutionize urban transport.
The big takeaway from this proof of concept, is that only Electric Vehicles with autonomous hardware/software installed can use this infrastructure. No ICE vehicles allowed! Dr Khasha Ghaffarzadeh, Research Director, IDTechEx The drone market in recent years has completely changed character. Gone is the hype. IDTechEx's report clearly demonstrates this by tracking company investment and formation trends each year. The price wars have also taken their toll with the Chinese winner having forced many to give their hardware (platform) play completely. We are often therefore asked whether this marks the end of the drone opportunity or not?
By Jason Mueller For more than ten years now, Tesla has been making news because of their electric cars and other environmentally friendly products including solar panels. In November 2017 however, on top of introducing a modern update to the Tesla Roadster sports car, the company took a giant leap from an automobile or an electric SUV to producing an electric semi-truck.
I was holding myself back from writing my Part 2 of the connected car series. I thought lets see what CES 2018 has in store this year as there was already a lot of hype building up, that CES is set to be renamed 'Car Electronics Show', instead of what it originally stands for - the 'Consumer Electronics Show'.
