Coventry in the UK is destined to become home to the world’s first “airport” for electric aircraft. Known as Air-One, it’s set to launch this year as a hub for aircraft including air taxis and delivery drones.

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are the future of motoring. But what types of EVs exist? How do they work and how can they be charged? What are the developments in the electric car market and how much do they cost? Learn this and more in the following article.

The german company Fischer Elektronik is now offering a newly developed fluid heatsink for the printed circuit board especially for the heat dissipation of larger power losses from electronic components. The item is designed and structured for cooling the most common power semiconductors in TO cases and many more.

Some of the world’s biggest automakers are facing a critical shortage of the semiconductors they need to build their cars. The shortage could put a complete stop to production in certain parts of the world at a time when the industry is trying to recover from the pandemic.

In December, DENSO Corporation announced that it has begun mass production of its latest model of booster power module equipped with silicon carbide power semiconductors, as part of its efforts to achieve a low-carbon society. This product is used in Toyota’s new Mirai model.

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden claim that that they’ve found a way to effectively and efficiently cool down electronics and power systems by using graphene-based heat pipes, it has been announced.

UC Berkeley developed the RISC-V instruction set as a CPU lingua franca for computer chips; an architecture used by all chipmakers and owned by noneⁱ. Here, we look at RISC-V and some of the technology and applications it has facilitated.

Energy storage systems are essential to the operation of power systems. With the growth of renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and tidal power, their importance is continuing to grow. Here’s a quick look at some of the main applications of energy storage systems.

According to a new report by Grand View Research, the global ultra-high purity silicon carbide market size is expected to reach USD 79.0 million by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 14.8 % from 2020 to 2027. Rising penetration of electric vehicles and growth of renewable energy sector are expected to provide growth opportunities for market players.

As the need for power system flexibility has grown alongside the rapid decline in the cost of storage technologies, especially lithium-ion batteries, the interest in grid-scale battery energy storage has gained much prominence.
