Electric Vehicle Components

Maintaining optimum operating temperatures for applications where overheating and thermal runaway might be a risk is the role of thermal management technologies, which can vary greatly in approach depending on application type. This article covers thermal management for BESS and EVs.

The electric vehicle market has been steadily growing in recent years as part of global efforts to reduce harmful emissions and increase the overall sustainability of road transport. Demand for individual vehicle parts including battery cells and motors has therefore ramped up as a result.

From AI in-car assistants to drone delivery helpers, the future of transportation is versatile and varied, thanks to the latest developments in robotics, autonomy, electric vehicles, and hydrogen.

The electrification of transport has been a huge revolution in recent years, with the number of electric vehicles on the road increasing, alongside ramped up regulations for carbon emission reductions. This article covers electric construction vehicles, micro EVs, and drones

As economies worldwide are growing exponentially, there is increasing pressure on many of the major sectors to keep up with global trends. This article covers the need for new thermal management technologies alongside the growing demand for vehicle electrification high performance computing.

With in-mold electronics (IME) company, Kronos Mechatronics, having won the LOPEC 2026 Startup Award for Best Business Potential, the hype for printed electronic technologies can continue to flourish. This article covers IDTechEx's visit to LOPEC 2026 in Munich, exploring the use of IME within automotives.

Thermal management systems could be likened to the glue holding operations together, to ensure systems can run smoothly in optimal conditions. This article explores in particular IDTechEx's research into thermal management for battery energy storage systems and electric vehicles.

The future of energy could be increasingly streamlined, sustainable, and efficient, with battery developments and the integration of machine learning. This article explores the future of energy, from Li-ion batteries for electric vehicles and AI machine learning for their repurposing, to hydrogen fuel cells for vehicles and energy storage.

Underlying the hype for SiC (silicon carbide) and the future potential of GaN (gallium nitride) for EV power electronics, challenges remain for both technologies. While OEMs, tier-one suppliers, and market analysts generally agree that SiC and GaN will eventually share the market with incumbent Si technologies, the exact roadmap and time scale remain uncertain. A development in its relative infancy that IDTechEx expects to boost overall performance, volume capabilities, and cost, are engineered substrates.
