Supply and logistics are key in any battle. In the increasingly competitive market for electric vehicles (EV), securing a stable supply of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries has become critical for all participating car makers. According to the reporting from various media outlets, Ford is recently thinking about following EV leader Tesla in establishing in-house manufacturing for Li-ion batteries. Achieving self-sufficiency in this area will help reduce Ford’s dependence on the major battery suppliers based in South Korea. ...  more

Perovskite solar excels from its high conversion efficiency, relatively simple manufacturing process, and eco-friendliness, though issues such as instability and accelerated manufacturing speed must be resolved before realizing exrensive commercialization and popularization, in order to avoid the “death valley”. Stanford University had expedited on the development of perovskite batteries accordingly, and managed to develop an exclusive “high speed manufacturing equipment” that is able to produce a 12m perovskite film within a minute. ...  more

The Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) has once again joined hands with Taiwan Power Company (TPC), and signed for the second MOU for innovative strategy today (8th) that will expand on the orientations and intensity of future cooperation, where the collaboration on talent cultivation, business co-creation, and international concatenation will also be incorporated, in addition to the existing technology R&D. Tseng Wen-sheng, Deputy Minister of the MOEA, pointed out that the energy industry was regarded as a fundamental production element in the past, and he hopes to see it becoming a technology industry in the future, where the sufficient talent and resources will transform the electricity government into a national array. ...  more

Perovskite solar has been under the spotlight in recent years owing to its simple manufacturing process and the expeditiously surging conversion efficiency, though such technology has yet to enter an extensive commercialization due to the incorporation of heavy metal lead, which is one of the concerns for the environment. Chinese and UK scientists have targeted at this particular issue recently by developing a form of lead-free perovskite solar that can be used indoor and is more eco-friendly. ...  more
