In order to keep an electric vehicle battery running at its most efficient and maximize lifespan, an efficient cooling system is necessary. Depending on the design, air flowing over the battery can work, such as in […]

However, a problem with electric vehicles is battery overheating. This problem can be solved with CryoSolplus, a new coolant, developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute in German, that is reported to be three times more efficient than water. With […]
