On one hand the max current drawn in electric two wheeler is quite low (generally less than 100 amp), the lithium batteries are not put to extreme stress, however most electric two wheeler batteries have no forced cooling therefore the chances of heat developed / heat trapped are higher. A safe two wheeler battery system...Continue Reading

Although countries like China and Norway have gone fairly ahead in electric mobility, the world as a whole is still far away from a significant shift in electric mobility in the cars. As per the latest estimates we may end up having only 600000 or so electric cars in 2018. The cumulative total electric cars...Continue Reading

Some of the cities like Delhi are already ahead of the most polluting cities in China, atleast during some months of the year and the...Continue Reading

Amongst the efforts to find alternates like Sodium –Air batteries, Fuel cells are a promising alternate to the lithium batteries. However Hydrogen required for fuel cells poses a big channel on production, handling and storage. Hydrogen generation, compression, storage, dispensing, and service are all value-added components that should be identified when choosing the correct hydrogen...Continue Reading
