Last month, Cavotec, a company that designs and delivers connection and electrification solutions to enable the decarbonisation of ports and industrial applications, secured an order that, it says, signals its entry into industrial battery charging for heavy-duty vehicles. The order in question, va...
using a NACS-to-CCS1 adapter. Since then, other automakers, includingAudi,Fisker, GM,Mazda,Polestar,Porsche,Rivian, Scout Motors,Subaru,Toyota,Volkswagen, andVolvo—have announced plans to equip their EVs sold in the North American market with NACS charge ports from the factory starting in 2025...
While CarPlay has become very common in cars over the past several years, most manufacturers are still relying on a wired implementation that requires the user to plug his or her iPhone in using a Lightning cable connected to one of the vehicle's USB ports. The first and only car manufactu...
The first Left Side Panel also has cutouts for the I/O ports on my Raspberry Pi. This is so the USB Mic can be on the exterior of the Smart Mirror, and if I want to plug anything into the Pi, I still will have access to these ports. To create these cutouts, I precisely measur...
In general, it denotes the Regulation for the deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure, and it sets mandatory deployment targets for electric recharging and hydrogen refueling infrastructure for the road sector, for shore-side electricity supply in maritime and inland waterway ports, and for ...
The Italian high-speed rail network has been built near motorways (when possible) and is able to deliver high power at a relatively low voltage, so it makes sense to study the effects of such a solution on the 2 × 25 kV railway supply system to evaluate the possibility of connecting ...
There are national and international standards to follow when charging an EV, affecting the design of the ports and connectors [7]. There are several strategies for battery charging proposed in different charging protocols, such as constant current constant voltage (CC-CV) [34]. As described in...

In MDIBC, both ports mutually share a common DC link capacitor, common control technique and a common heat sink. Hence, the chances of an electrical breakdown are less which improves the reliability of MDIBC compared to conventional topologies. MDIBC can also utilize the regenerative braking ...
