Rechargeable Batteries Mean the End of Charging time

The biggest concerns of the potential buyers of an electric vehicle revolve around the short range, the distance to the charging station and the long charging time. But the new loading method developed by researchers of Purdue University should now provide assistance  by the filling up of liquid electrolytes.

Professor Cushman is looking for  a  new technique for  fast trechargeable batteries

The fast rechargeable battery  will lead to more acceptance of electric and hybrid vehicles and affect some of the  decisions  on  purchase  of  electric car. Researchers at the American Purdue University in the state of Indiana have developed a method that can charge the e-vehicle almost in no time. The technology is safe, cost-effective and environmentally friendly.

Prof. John Cushman of Purdue University presented the research results with a membrane-less battery at the International Conference »InterPore« 2017 in Rotterdam. The on-board batteries of hybrid or electric vehicles can be charged by the method, as in a refueling operation, through a quick and easy process. The new technology also reduces the need for a comprehensive infrastructure. He says; 

"Electric and hybrid vehicle sales are growing worldwide and the popularity of companies like Tesla is incredible, but there continues to be strong challenges for industry and consumers of electric or hybrid cars,” said Cushman, who led the research team that developed the technology. “The biggest challenge for industry is to extend the life of a battery’s charge and the infrastructure needed to actually charge the vehicle. The greatest hurdle for drivers is the time commitment to keeping their cars fully charged."
