India's EV Market Hits New Heights! October saw a remarkable surge with 217,716 new #EV registrations - the highest monthly sales ever recorded! This represents a stunning 35% jump from September's figures. The total 2024 registrations have already crossed the 1.6 million milestone, according to the Vahan data from the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways - India. What's Driving This Growth? - Festival season momentum - Attractive #OEM discounts - Government support through the ₹10,900 crore PM E-DRIVE scheme The Road Ahead While the numbers are impressive, industry experts emphasize the need for enhanced products and service quality to sustain this growth. The recent setback due to quality concerns in the two-wheeler segment highlight the importance of maintaining high standards across the #EVecosystem. #Linkedin #EVsales #News #Sustainability #IndianAutomotive #GreenMobility #EVRevolution #CleanEnergy Business Standard

Scientists at Southern Methodist University have solved one of the biggest challenges in battery technology - and it could make electric cars both cheaper AND more powerful. The game-changer? A new #lithium-sulphur battery design that packs an impressive 900 mAh/g of energy capacity - that's more than triple what current #EVbatteries can do (150-250 mAh/g). Why this matters: - Higher energy density = longer driving range - Uses sulphur instead of expensive metals - New "hybrid polymer network" design prevents battery degradation - Significantly longer battery lifespan The team cracked the code by solving the infamous "polysulfide dissolution" problem that has plagued these #batteries for years. In simple terms? They found a way to stop the battery from slowly destroying itself during charging cycles. This isn't just incremental progress - it's a fundamental breakthrough that could finally bring affordable, long-range electric vehicles to the mass market. Published in Nature Sustainability, this research represents a collaboration between top institutions including SMU, Penn State University, and national laboratories. #linkedin #EVs #electricvehicles #sustainability #tech #innovation

#Friday Special: Highlights of the Week - West Bengal is looking to attract investments in the #carbonblack industry, driven by the growing demand from the #EV market and battery manufacturing. The state's Chief Secretary, Mr. Manoj Pant, highlighted a projected growth rate of 4.8% CAGR over the next decade. - Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited (GFL) announced that its subsidiary, GFCL EV Products (GFCL EV), has raised Rs 1,000 crore at an equity valuation of approximately Rs 25,000 crore. The funding round was led by the promoters of the INOXGFL Group and included participation from several investors, including family offices of major Indian business conglomerates. The fresh capital will be used to fund GFCL EV's expansion plans and capitalize on the growing global demand for EVs and #energy storage systems (ESSs). - Hyundai Motor Company (현대자동차) is making a strong commitment to localizing the #electricvehicle sector in #India. The company plans to launch four mass-market #EVs over the next three years, starting with the #Creta EV. Hyundai aims to increase its production capacity from 824,000 units to 1.1 million units by 2028, following the acquisition of the Talegaon plant in #Maharashtra. To make EVs more affordable and accessible, Hyundai plans to invest Rs 32,000 crore over the next eight years to develop a local EV production hub, including the manufacturing of #battery packs in India. - EV Recharge has partnered with ZEVO to provide mobile fast charging solutions for electric 3W in #Noida. This collaboration aims to reduce vehicle downtime by offering on-location fast charging, which can boost delivery efficiency. EV Recharge's technology can charge vehicles from 0% to 80% in just 20 minutes, a significant improvement over traditional charging times. -The upcoming meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Jinping Xi at the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia, is significant for #Indian EV makers. The de-escalation of border tensions could encourage Chinese investments in India's EV market, which has been facing challenges like affordability, #rangeanxiety, and sparse charging infrastructure. Improved relations might lead to joint ventures and increased collaboration, potentially boosting the local #EVindustry.

A snapshot from the The International Energy Agency (IEA)'s flagship World Energy Outlook, #October edition. "Within this decade, rising sales of #EVs and improvements in fuel efficiency lead to petrochemicals taking over from road transport as the main contributor to oil demand growth. The pace of #EV sales and the role of #PHEVs are two key uncertainties for the oil outlook, and the degree of oil-to-gas switching in the power sector in countries in the #MiddleEast is a third". #Linkedin #News #Energy #Sustainability

#Chart of the Day: Clean electrification A recent report by Ember highlights how clean electrification is helping the #UK to reduce reliance on fossil fuel imports. Clean electrification, defined as the utilization of low-carbon electricity to facilitate heating and transportation, represents a critical advancement toward establishing a secure #cleanenergy system. Key insights: - #Electricvehicles convert 89% of charge point electricity into useful energy, compared to 20% of petrol for a combustion engine equivalent. - Electric cars need three times less energy than petrol cars, limiting the grid impact of electrification. #linkedin #EV #sustainability #EVs #ICE Frankie Mayo Uni Lee Nicolas Fulghum
