Panel Sessions Session 1 Market Development of HEVs, EVs, and their Batteries Session 2 Energy-Storage Solutions for High-Voltage Hybrids Session 3 PHEV Battery Requirements and Solutions Session 4 Electric-Vehicle Battery Technology Session 5 Battery Management Technology in Automotive Applications
| | | | Session 4: Electric-Vehicle Battery TechnologyElectric vehicles provide the ideal clean transportation, offering higher energy efficiency than vehicles powered by combustion of petrol fuel, and zero on-road emissions. There is only one significant obstacle to widespread electric-vehicle commercialization: the energy-storage device known as the battery. In this session we will review EV and EV-battery technology as well as the logistics and infrastructure aspects of vehicle electrification to assess how close EV technology is to offering acceptable value to the market.
