Energized Composites for Electric Vehicles: A Dual Function Energy-Storing Supercapacitor-Based Carbon Fiber Composite for the Body Panels The current electric vehicles (EVs) face many challenges like limited charge capacity, low miles/charge, and long charging times. Herein, these issues are addressed by developing a dual-function supercapacitor-based energy-storing carbon fiber reinforced polymer (e-CFRP) that can store electrical energy and function as the structural component for the EV's body shell. This is achieved by developing a unique design, vertically aligned graphene sheets attached to carbon fiber electrodes on which different metal oxides are deposited to obtain high-energy density electrodes. A high-strength multilayer e-CFRP assembly is fabricated using an alternate layer patterning configuration of epoxy and polyacrylamide gel electrolyte. The e-CFRP so developed delivers a high areal energy density of 0.31 mWh cm –2  at 0.3 mm thickness and a high tensile str...

vehicle-integrated photovoltaic   (VIPV) sunroof for passenger vehicles, sedans, sport utility vehicles or minivans, with power outputs ranging from 3000 W to 6000 W, depending on the usable area for PV. We offer a choice of high-efficiency cell designs with efficiency greater than 95%, according to Graphene G.O.A.T. The system can integrate proprietary solar cells. The way the sunroof's energy is used within the vehicle is defined by our customers. “It depends on the electrical architecture chosen by us the car manufacturer as there are different strategies to maximize the overall system efficiency. In general, the electricity generated by the sunroof during driving is used for self-consumption to power things like the drivetrain, heating-ventilation-air-conditioning, displays,  and audio systems, while the electricity generated during parking is used to recharge the high voltage and low voltage battery. Our VIPV unit features a glass-glass construction and it does not need a...

Introducing Magnetar Motors: Revolutionizing the Road with Solar Ultraviolet Vehicles (S.U.V.V.) Unleashing the Power of the Sun: A New Era in Electric Mobility Allow me to introduce you to  Magnetar Motors , a groundbreaking company poised to redefine the electric vehicle landscape. Our mission? To drive change, quite literally, by harnessing the sun’s energy in an innovative way. Buckle up as we unveil our game-changing creation: the  Aliens —the world’s first Solar Ultraviolet Vehicles (S.U.V.V.) The Aliens: Where Innovation Meets Earthly Efficiency 1. The Solar Revolution Traditional electric vehicles rely on bulky, resource-intensive batteries. But not the Aliens. Picture this: a sleek, futuristic line of cars that doesn’t need to plug in or swap batteries. Instead, it draws power directly from the sun. How? Through our proprietary solar technology embedded in the glass panoramic roof and engineered into the cutting edge electric drivetrain. 2. The Science Behind It Sola...

Mirror Cell panels. Up to 20 times the normal power. Each 1m x 2m panel can produce 3K to 6K Watts   These new cells can increase electricity production 1,800%. more than a panel the same size. Changing roofs on homes covered in 10 or 20 300W panels. To just 1 or 2 panels. Using MCPs (Mirror cell panels) costs are reduced dramatically and install times. We are making solar panels affordable to the masses. And aesthetically pleasing. Stand alone charge station for EV's. Just 4 of our MCP's will make operate a station. 24/7                                     (normally you need 60-120 solar panels) Able to charge vehicles day and night in remote locations where the grid is not available. And in areas where the grid cannot cope with demand. look at the clear cell, you can see the silicone. It almost disappears from sight with the blue, and with the black it disappears completely. This is ...

  A graphene breakthrough hints at the future of battery power From laptops that charge in 15 minutes to electric scooters,  the first round of graphene-based products could finally deliver  on the promise of the much-hyped wonder material A fume cabinet at the National Graphene Institute in Manchester, UK MATTHEW LLOYD/BLOOMBERG VIA GETTY IMAGES Catch the 1E bus from central Belgrade, Serbia, and you’ll be riding the future. The five Chariot e-buses that operate on this route are some of the first in the world to run solely on supercapacitors, a fast-charging alternative to batteries that could revolutionize how we store energy. Instead of holding electricity as chemical potential, like a battery, supercapacitors (also known as ultracapacitors) store it in an electrical field, like static collecting on a balloon. Because there’s no chemical reaction going on, they don’t degrade like lithium-ion batteries, which rely on rare-earth metals and can end up in landfill af...
