Disturbing images have shown Russian forces torturing a Moscow terror suspect by hooking his genitals up to an 80v battery and leaving him foaming at the mouth, as new footage of Friday’s slaughter has emerged.
Photographs show one of the suspected terrorists, named as Shamsuddin Fariddun, lying on a gym floor with his trousers pulled down and wires evidently attached to his groin area.
He is visibly foaming from the mouth and appears to be clenching his teeth, while a
Lithium is one of the most important metals in the transition to renewable power. Lithium-ion batteries are, thanks to their lightweight and high energy density, currently the top choice for storing energy in electric vehicles, and a potential tool for grid storage, too. Global production of the metal tripled throughout the 2010s, and demand is projected to increase as much as 40-fold by mid-century.
But that presents several conundrums. Though geologists have already identified more than 100 million tons of … Read more
Das US-Energieministerium sagte, es habe unter Auflagen einem Darlehen in Höhe von 165,9 Millionen US-Dollar zugestimmt, um die Ausweitung der fortschrittlichen Batteriepaketproduktion für Elektrofahrzeuge durch American Battery Solutions zu finanzieren.

In the hunt for new materials, scientists have traditionally relied on tinkering in the lab, guided by intuition, with a hefty serving of trial and error.
But now a new battery material has been discovered by combining two computing superpowers: artificial intelligence and supercomputing. It’s a discovery that highlights the potential for using computers to help scientists discover materials suited to specific needs, from batteries to carbon capture technologies to catalysts.
Calculations winnowed down more than 32 million candidate materials
BlueOval SK, ein Joint Venture zwischen Ford und SK On, sagte, dass Arbeiter in den Werken, die das Unternehmen in Stanton, Tennessee, und Glendale, Kentucky, baut, bis zu 37,50 US-Dollar pro Stunde verdienen können, gegenüber zuvor 21 bis 29 US-Dollar.

Während Autohersteller auf der North American International Auto Show in Detroit die neuesten Elektromodelle vorstellen, werden Zulieferer, Ingenieure, Technologieunternehmen und politische Entscheidungsträger 30 Meilen entfernt auf der Battery Show in Novi, Michigan, über Pläne zur Unterstützung dieser Fahrzeuge diskutieren.
„Für alle OEMs dürfte es derzeit eine der wichtigsten Messen überhaupt sein [are] „Wir nehmen ihren Weg zur Elektrifizierung ernst“, sagte Martin French, Geschäftsführer des deutschen Automobilberatungsunternehmens Berylls Strategy Advisors Automobilnachrichten. „Ohne Batterien und Infrastruktur ist es schwierig, eine Diskussion
BRUSSELS — The European Commission said in a statement it had approved, under EU State aid rules, 1.5 billion euros ($1.6 billion) worth of French state support for ProLogium Technologies to research and develop a new generation of electric vehicle batteries.
It said that the measure will contribute to the achievement of the strategic objectives of the European Green Deal and the EU battery strategy.
The research is focused on solid-state batteries for electric vehicles. The technology uses solid instead
If battery workers were covered under the national agreement, they would likely be eligible for better pay and benefits.
Senators and the union have heavily criticized Ultium for paying low wages at the Ohio plant and noted some make just half as much as workers did at a nearby shuttered GM assembly plant.
The senators including Ohio Democrat Sherrod Brown wrote last week it is a “national disgrace that the starting wage at any current American joint venture electric vehicle
LG Energy Solution is also working with existing suppliers to add operations in North America, he said. The strategy is part of a broader plan to add reliable suppliers in the region. It aligns with a provision in the Inflation Reduction Act that provides credits for certain products, including key battery components domestically produced and sold by a manufacturer.
Lee, who led Continental’s North America business for two years before joining LG Energy Solution in 2022, said the semiconductor shortage
