Lithium iron phosphate batteries

  By


Developments in LFP technology are making it a serious rival to lithium-ion for e-mobility, as Nick Flaherty explains Lithium-ion batteries have some disadvantages for e-mobility that cannot be ignored, such as lower safety and higher cost than other chemistries. At the same time, improvements in battery pack technology in recent years have seen the energy density of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) packs increase to the point where they have become viable for all kinds of e-mobility applications from vehicles to new types of shipping such as so-called battery tankers.

Rory Jackson looks at how these electric powertrains and their inverter have been designed for crewed aircraft integrators
In every part of aerospace engineering, a race is on to break new ground and claim headline-grabbing milestones in sustainable aviation. While it might seem to some that commercial airliners are moving at a sluggish pace compared with the automotive world in reducing their harmful emissions, it is not out of a lack of interest in decarbonisation.

Fuses and circuit protection

  By


Nick Flaherty reports on how new circuit protection technologies are meeting the challenges posed by increasingly powerful EVs The EV market these days is seeing demand and development towards decreasing charging times, increased range requirements and a wider variety of vehicle models. All of this heightens the challenges on electrical system performance and design, particularly regarding circuit protection. More…

Head of Bosch Mobility Solutions talks EV trends and techs

  By


Arun Srinivasan, head of Bosch Mobility Solutions in the UK, says that, as a Tier 1 automotive supplier, the company is well-placed to assess which technologies in which sectors are best placed to reduce the environmental impact of road transport, particularly by eliminating tailpipe emissions (writes Peter Donaldson).
“If you focus on air quality, passenger car electrification is perhaps the most important for that, and we in the UK are well on the way with that,” he says. “The charging network has room for improvement, but that aside, I think the path is almost set. More…
