Tesla, Terafactories, & Lithium: Securing The Supply Chain
"Ivan suggested that if Tesla was looking at mines, he would go with North American mines such as Lithium Americas. Thacker Pass is 150 miles north of the Nevada Gigafactory"
Past its peak? Battered oil demand faces threat from electric vehicles
“All the growth in transportation is being eaten by electricity,” said Harry Benham, chairman of Ember-Climate, a British energy transition think-tank. “Oil and gas companies have got no ability to defeat electricity as a transport fuel.”

Lithium-ion is just the beginning. Here’s a peek at the future of batteries
Are there cheaper, more environmentally friendly batteries out there? Could we be using something better? What does the future hold? A lot of people are researching the possibilities. Since the 1990s, more than 300,000 battery-related patents have been filed (more than 30,000 in 2017 alone).
Lithium-ion Batteries For Under Water Use: Technology Trends
Recently, researchers from the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) and Seoul National University’s School of Chemical and Biological Engineering collaborated to design a graphene coating for Li-ion batteries to enhance charging speeds by five-fold and increase battery capacity by making it 45% more energy-dens
NASA edges closer to the first flight of all electric X57 plane
Endurance is key not only for the performance of the X-57 aircraft, but also for transportation at large. Once jet-fuel-burning aircraft engines are replaced by all-electric alternatives — we could see the entire aviation industry decarbonize.
Works with any Lead acid battery and any application
BOS Lithium Extension Batteries can be used wherever a classic lead acid battery needs to be extended. The scope and application of the LE300 is such that, our customers often inspire us with new ideas and possible application areas. Right from Solar Home systems in Africa to Caravans and Boats in Europe, LE300 has touched every kind of storage application you can ever think of!
Tesla's vast, multinational Supercharger network is a huge competitive advantage. Take a closer look.
Supercharging allows Tesla owners to be one-car EV customers; other charge systems favor EVs with less range that require backup vehicles for longer trips.
A Million-Mile Battery From China Could Power Your Electric Car
Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. is ready to produce a battery that lasts 16 years and 2 million kilometers (1.24 million miles), Chairman Zeng Yuqun said in an interview at company headquarters in Ningde, southeastern China. Warranties on batteries currently used in electric cars cover about 150,000 miles or eight years, according to BloombergNEF.
Electric aircraft could transform short-distance regional air travel
The data graphed above shows that 20% of domestic passengers are flying under 350 miles in the USA, with nearly 50% under 700 miles. Forget about the 9,000 mile international flights, this is the market for electrified flight in the near-term. The aircraft to support it are nearly here.
