I’ve heard and read about these. I doubt they can be scaled up sufficiently for large applications.
I read the article, but it didn’t discuss any specifics.
What I did find interesting is that these units are apparently made to be replaceable.
I have long thought that if there was a scheme where you could drive up, a machine aligns with your car, opens a compartment automatically, pulls the existing pack out and puts a charged one in, that would be one way I would consider it on a large scale if the power delivery issues were addressed.
I did read some of the comments, something I rarely do, and there was some poster who insisted that ICE vehicles catch fire 61 times more than EV, but it made me think of two responses:
First, how many EVs are on the road compared to ICE vehicles?
And second, how many ICE vehicles actually catch fire in the middle of the night, unattended, parked in a garage or in a parking lot as happens with EVs?
