Australia's Sustainable Transport Future
Australia's sustainable transport future gets $7.9 million boost. This 'will fund research, education and scholarship in the field of sustainable transport technology.' (Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies, University of Sydney) >
Smarter transport solutions could transform door-to-door work commute
'Our research into smarter door-to-door solutions – driven by digital disruption – will reduce car use and our environmental footprint, and make getting to work cheaper and simpler.' (Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies, University of Sydney) >
Car Battery Charging "On Steroids"
Terra 360 (they claim it's the fastest in the world) 'Delivering up to 360 kW of power and a full charge in less than 15 minutes.' (ABB - a merger between ASEA and Brown Boveri) >
Very Fast Charging Batteries
Synthesis of Pseudocapacitive Porous Metal Oxide Nanoclusters Anchored on Graphene for Aqueous Energy Storage Devices with High Energy Density and Long Cycling Stability along with Ultrafast Charging Capability. 'a strategy to realize high-performance aqueous energy storages using porous Mn3O4 (p-MG) positive and porous Fe2O3 (p-FG) negative electrodes, where granular nanoclusters composing nanoparticles are produced on graphene through lithiation-induced conversion and the shortened ion diffusion lengths in p-MG and p-FG give fast charging rate and excellent cycle stability is reported.' (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) >
Australia is 91% Reliant on Foreign Oil
'Australia’s transport fuels are highly vulnerable to international prices and supply chains and yet demand-side solutions, particularly the electrification of transportation, have been ignored.' (The Australia Institute, Canberra) >
