Aug. 28, 2018 One of the biggest obstacles to widespread electric-vehicle
adoption has been range anxiety. If an electric car can't handle a commute

UPS to test new electric vehicle

]
UPS is collaborating with Thor Trucks, Inc. to develop and test a
fully-electric class 6 delivery truck in Los Angeles, Calif. The truck is
expected to be ready for deployment later this year.
UPS continues to work with a range of companies to test and deploy promising
alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles.
The Thor electric delivery truck will have a driving range of approximately
100 miles powered by a Thor-designed and built battery that will be
lightweight, durable and allow long-range driving distances.
For six months, UPS will test the medium-duty electric delivery truck as
part of its fleet. Testing will include off-road evaluation to address
durability, battery capacity, technical integration, engineering and any
items found during on-road testing.
Depending on the success of the deployment, UPS may make additional
purchases of the electric vehicle. The company works with a wide array of
manufacturers including ARRIVAL, Daimler, Tesla, Thor, Workhorse and others.
Using its “Rolling Laboratory” approach, UPS deploys about 9,300
low-emission vehicles to determine which technology works best in each route
configuration.

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: 400kW (1080mph) EVSE new2 GM> (not new-tech 2others)
Indoor sky diving facilities use more than a mega-watt. Shopping centers use far more than this. Half a megawatt is commonplace, believe it or not. They are considering fast chargers this size in New Zealand, but cars have to be set up to use this much charger. There are several car manufacturers and charger manufacturers considering 10 minute 350 to 400 kw charging. Most folks don't really _need_ 400 kw charging, but most folks don't need private jets either. They sell quite a few private jets. Bill D.

Like a lot of the "new technology" posts, a bunch of PR mumbo-jumbo. Each charger would require its own electrical substation. Efficiencies are already near theoretical limits. Notice the time frame is in the vapor-ware realm. And just what is a solid state transformer?

General Motors has begun a new partnership with Delta Americas to develop a new technology which will charge its upcoming fleet of electric cars in record time. General Motors said it is readying a fleet of 20 electric cars that will be capable of utilizing the newly developed chargers, enabling its vehicles to rapidly recharge their batteries and provide up to 180 miles of range in just 10 minutes. Its partner in the deal, Delta Americas, expects to have the final prototype of its Extreme Fast Charger (XFC) ready by 2020, and GM expects to have its fleet of vehicles ready only three years later, by 2023. The new XFCs are set to outpace both Tesla's Superchargers, which can provide current-generation cars with up to 120-kilowatts of power, as well as Porsche's new 350-kW chargers, by providing an unheard of 400 kW of electricity to the vehicles. The new technology, developed with partner Delta Americas and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, is able to provide a staggering 96.5 percent grid-to-vehicle efficiency, a three percent increase than current technology, partly thanks to the use of solid-state transformers. “We’re thrilled to lead such an important project and have a stellar team of researchers and partners in place that are more than ready to take on the challenge of setting a new standard for EV fast charging,” said M.S. Huang, president of Delta Americas'. “By utilizing solid-state transformer technology, we have the opportunity to create unprecedented charging speed and convenience that will ultimately help support the DOE’s strategic goal of increasing EV adoption across the nation.” The numbers quoted by GM and Delta Americas are theoretical, of course, and are contingent on what is considered to be "tomorrow’s long-range EVs," or vehicles that will provide up to 360 miles of range per charge. As batteries possess a higher charge, they become increasingly difficult to recharge, meaning that it takes less time to charge a battery from zero-to-50 percent than from 50-to-100 percent.

I really don't care what they believe. Knowledge makes for much better decisions. So let's see how plausible this "belief" really is. Efficient small car (well done light conversion) 250Wh/mi * 360mi = 90kWh available battery capacity * 50% = 45kWh 45kWh in 10 minutes => 270W. Seems legit. Typical compact EV (Nissan Leaf) 340Wh/mi (EPA rating 2012 Leaf) * 360mi = 122.4kWh available batt capacity * 50% = 61.2kWh 61.2kWh in 10 minutes => 367.2kW. Just makes it. Bloatmobile EV (Tesla Model X) 420Wh/mi (see https://www.edmunds.com/tesla/model-x/2016/long-term-road-test/2016- tesla-model-x-monthly-update-for-january-2017.html) 420Wh/mi * 360mi = 151.2kWh available battery capacity * 50% = 75.6kWh 75.6kWh in 10 minutes => 453.6kW.

This is exciting. I think this will push the EV sales point past the early adopters part of the bell curve. For people who only own one car, can't charge at home, and drive long distances often enough not to want to rent, this will make a big difference - if GM really follows through. I think that's a large number of people. It also will eliminate one of the main detractors from hydrogen power.

General Motors has begun a new partnership with Delta Americas to develop a new technology which will charge its upcoming fleet of electric cars in record time. General Motors said it is readying a fleet of 20 electric cars that will be capable of utilizing the newly developed chargers, enabling its vehicles to rapidly recharge their batteries and provide up to 180 miles of range in just 10 minutes. Its partner in the deal, Delta Americas, expects to have the final prototype of its Extreme Fast Charger (XFC) ready by 2020, and GM expects to have its fleet of vehicles ready only three years later, by 2023. The new XFCs are set to outpace both Tesla's Superchargers, which can provide current-generation cars with up to 120-kilowatts of power, as well as Porsche's new 350-kW chargers, by providing an unheard of 400 kW of electricity to the vehicles. The new technology, developed with partner Delta Americas and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, is able to provide a staggering 96.5 percent grid-to-vehicle efficiency, a three percent increase than current technology, partly thanks to the use of solid-state transformers. “We’re thrilled to lead such an important project and have a stellar team of researchers and partners in place that are more than ready to take on the challenge of setting a new standard for EV fast charging,” said M.S. Huang, president of Delta Americas'. “By utilizing solid-state transformer technology, we have the opportunity to create unprecedented charging speed and convenience that will ultimately help support the DOE’s strategic goal of increasing EV adoption across the nation.” The numbers quoted by GM and Delta Americas are theoretical, of course, and are contingent on what is considered to be "tomorrow’s long-range EVs," or vehicles that will provide up to 360 miles of range per charge. As batteries possess a higher charge, they become increasingly difficult to recharge, meaning that it takes less time to charge a battery from zero-to-50 percent than from 50-to-100 percent. Delta Americas believes that its current technology will recharge a next-generation 360-mile range battery to 50 percent in the rated 10 minutes, though they do not specify battery capacity.

Malaysia’s Proton electric cars coming to Pakistan

The Malaysian automaker, Proton Holding has signed an agreement with
Pakistan’s Al-haj Automotive Private Limited, to produce and assemble its
electric and eco-friendly cars in Pakistan
]
According to local media reports, the deal is expected to bring in an
investment of $200-300 million in the country. The deal would make Al Haj
the exclusive distributor of Proton automobiles in the country.
As per the agreement, Al-Haj would bring modern and high-tech automobiles in
different categories i.e. entry and mid-level sedans, crossovers/sports
utility vehicles, multi-purpose vehicle and hatchbacks.
Last year, Al-Haj Faw Motors (Private) Limited, a collaboration between Faw
China and Al-Haj Motors, started assembling Faw V2, a 1,300cc [ice]
hatchback, at its assembly plant in Karachi, becoming the forst Chinese car
to be assemble in the country currently dominated by three Japanese
carmakers.
Just months back, Al Haj FAW motors increased the price of its vehicles in
Pakistan for the fourth time this year, amid devaluation of Pakistani rupee
against dollar.
