EV Battery Makers Need to Consider Recycling Needs to Avert Waste Crisis

With global warming on the rise, considerable interest has been showsn in switching to green, renewable energy. Battery-powered vehicles have emerged as the perfect replacement for fossil-fuel-powered vehicles. These vehicles are powered by rechargeable batteries and produce minimal emissions, making them the perfect vehicle for a net-zero economy. However, as more and more lithium-ion, battery-powered vehicles are produced, the chance of creating a major waste crisis down the line increases. Aside from battery EVs, everything from mobile phones and laptops to watches and other consumer devices are also powered by batteries. So when these devices finally reach the end of…

LeasePlan Urges Customers to Lease Fully Electric Vehicles Not PHEVs

Powered by clean energy, electric vehicles (EVs) produce minimal emissions, and they are poised to take over the roads over the next decade. Although the zero-emissions vehicle movement began with both battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), over the years it has become apparent that EVs are the better option. Plug-in hybrids, which are fuel-powered cars outfitted with a small battery, are a less-energy-efficient, less-clean option, and car leasing company LeasePlan agrees. Recently, LeasePlan sent out an email advising its clients in the Netherlands not to choose a PHEV as their next vehicle. With more than 1.9 million cars…

EV Makers Turn to SPACs for Easier Access to Stock Markets

Since it started selling its all-electric roadster more than a decade ago, Tesla has dominated the electric vehicle (EV) market. The firm has seen exponential growth over the years, eventually gaining a market valuation of more than $300 billion. But while investors have been salivating for Tesla stock for a while now, other EV makers have not been so lucky. In fact, players in the young EV industry have had a relatively hard time securing capital. Take Steve Burns, for instance. Although his company, Lordstown Motors, has already designed an electric truck, acquired a plant and machinery from General Motors,…

Net Element Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE), Mullen Stand to Benefit from Decreasing EV Manufacturing Costs

Investment bank UBS reports that electric cars will cost the same to make as conventional cars by 2024. Expensive batteries, which account for between a quarter and two-fifths of EV’s cost, have been barrier to production. NETE recently announced entry into EV space through merger with privately held Mullen Technologies Inc. New research from investment bank UBS indicates that electric vehicles (“EVs”) may be as cheap to manufacture as regular models within the next four years (https://ibn.fm/UV8WX). This news bodes well for Net Element Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE), a global financial technology and value-added solutions group that recently announced its planned…

Hydrogen Cars Unlikely to Eclipse Electric Vehicles

A century or so after automobiles first began traveling the roads, it has become clear that we need a replacement. While fossil fuel-powered vehicles have helped to advance human industrialization, they are also responsible for one-third of the air pollution in the United States, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Battery-powered electric vehicles (EVs) as well as hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) have emerged as much cleaner options. But while EVs are poised to take over the roads in the coming decades, FCEVs may have a different fate. Both kinds of vehicles run on renewable energy and…

UC Riverside Engineers Finds Fast Charging Detrimental to EV Batteries

For the longest time, one of the greatest barriers to EV adoption was charging worries. With most developed governments looking toward net-zero economies, though, charging stations are slowly becoming more widespread and reliable. We have even seen the introduction of super-fast chargers that can charge an electric car to near full capacity in just a couple of minutes. However, according to a new study published in Energy Storage, fast charging may be doing more harm than good. Engineers at the University of California Riverside found that fast-charging stations subject car batteries to high temperatures and resistance that can cause them…

Lung Association Articulates Health Benefits of EVs

Most developed countries are on track to replace traditional gas-powered vehicles with electric vehicles over the next two decades. Not only do they run on clean, renewable energy, but they also produce minimal emissions and widespread adoption of EVs will significantly reduce the amount of pollution on our roads. Less carbon in the air means less heat is trapped in the atmosphere, and according to the American Lung Association, fewer health problems. According to a recent “Road to Clean Air” report from the Lung Association, Maryland could save up to 100 lives and $1.3 billion in public health benefits in 2050…
