Electric vehicles

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 8 February titled Manned Electric Aircraft 2018-2028.

A number of IDTechEx analysts attended CES 2018, exploring the key themes prevalent in a variety of sectors, including: healthcare, neuroscience, 3D printing, e-textiles, haptics and electric vehicles.

Robotic technology is quietly transforming the world of agriculture. In this article, we demonstrate how diverse this emerging industry is in terms of forms, functions and fortunes.

Fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) are predominantly made of synthetic fibres, such as glass or carbon, and a petrochemically sourced thermosetting resin or thermoplastic matrix. However, natural fibres and resins are on the rise because of their beneficial properties, competitive cost, legislative drivers, and consumer preferences.

Autonomous mobile robots are causing a paradigm shift in the way we envisage commercial and industrial vehicles.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 18 January titled Electric vehicle charging goes off grid.

Trucking is a big business. In this article we will demonstrate how and why trucking driving is going autonomous.

Raghu Das introduced the technologies covered and an introduction to the IDTechEx Show! USA 2017

The improving business cases for off grid are a contrast to much grid supply, where high voltage grid extension at a swingeing $1-6 million per mile is not involved, nor even low voltage extension at $15k-50k. It attracts where grids are being neglected or are based on bad choices increasing prices.

While plenty of options for plug-in vehicles now flood the market at seemingly low prices, drivers soon realize most electric options only get them thirty to eighty miles on a single charge.
