…be contrasted with the c-20 year typical lifetimes of ICE vehicles. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2023/06/15/electric-vehicles-breaking-the-ice/ Hence what requirements for electric vehicle battery life? This question matters if electric vehicle chemistries are going to…
Electric Cars are being overtaken by new electric vehicles, which achieve c3x greater decarbonisation per unit of battery material. This metric matters if one believes that battery materials are a…
…in their stator windings by traction inverters. For more details and underlying theory, please see our overview of magnets. What magnets are used in electric vehicles? 80-90% of electric vehicles…
Electric vehicles are a world-changing technology, 2-6x more efficient than ICEs, but how quickly will they ramp up to re-shape global oil demand? This 14-page note presents our electric vehicle…
Total pump costs can be ballparked at $600/kW/year of power, of which 70% is electricity, 20% operations and maintenance, 10% capex/capital costs. But the numbers vary. Hence this data-file breaks…
…to get over-built. They will pay for themselves in footfall. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2022/02/03/electric-vehicles-chargers-of-the-light-brigade/ (3) Economics are debatable. Many commentators argue that electric vehicle charging should be ‘cheaper’ than ICE vehicles, but this…
It is widely believed that electric vehicles will destroy fossil fuel demand. We find EVs will increase fossil fuel demand by 0.7Mboed from 2020-35. EVs only start lowering net fossil…

This data-file models the possible battery sizes in a fully electric semi-truck. Lithium ion batteries up to 15 tons are considered, which could deliver 2,500 miles of range, comparable to…
Electric arc furnaces generate enormous amounts of heat as very high voltages cause the electric decomposition of air into plasma. This heat can be used to melt down and recycle…
