  • One of the big challenges facing the EV industry is charging, and specifically charging times. It’s one of the main pain-points that the industry needs to address in order to achieve mass scale adoption.

    So any developments which holds out the prospect of a radical improvement in charging times is potentially very important.

    In the episode I am joined by Dan Alpern, VP of Marketing at Battery Streak, the California based battery materials company to discuss the solutions that Battery Streak are developing in this field.

  • We've spent a lot of time during this podcast series talking to businesses developing the next generation of battery technology. In this episode, we switch perspectives to that of the OEMs, the car makers.

    How do they determine which battery electrochemistry to adopt. What are the main pain points OEMs are looking to overcome and when you're planning well into the future how is the electrochemistry landscape changing?

  • The mountainous region of Barroso in Northern Portugal is sitting on buried treasure; one of Europe's most significant deposits of Lithium.

    And a European supply of Lithium is a game changer for a continent committed to local supply of 40% of its consumption of strategic raw materials.

    So how does Portugal maximise the opportunity? Does it simply become a supplier of raw materials to other economies or does it take the opportunity to build its own, unique, battery technology value chain.

    In this episode I am joined by Fernando Machado and Diogo Fula of the Battery Technology Cluster, Portugal, to discuss their strategies to build a battery ecosystem.
