In groundbreaking research, scientists have made a structural battery 10 times better than in any previous experiment. What’s a structural battery, and why is it such a big deal? The term refers to an energy storage device that can also bear weight as part of a structure—like if the studs in your home were all […]
For many, electric vehicles (EVs) represent the future of transportation and a means to reduce emissions, but they have also heralded a new lexicon of maintenance concerns. Chief among these considerations is whether frequent use of direct current (DC) fast charging impacts the lifespan of EV batteries. While early industry wisdom suggested that regular fast […]
