Tech focus: the future of electric car charging Autos Articles | August 16 nike air max zero predaj , 2016

Imagine never having to visit a fuel station in the future. Not just because we’ll all be driving electric cars and traditional petrol stations will have been reclaimed as parkland for fluffy rabbits, but because your autonomous car with built-in gm navigation?will nip off to politely queue at the wireless charging pad at night, topping itself up for your journey to work in the morning.



Follow this concept through and you’ll only ever need to physically plug in your EV when you want to charge your car dvd player, supplying it with renewable energy generated at times of peak efficiency and stored in the car. Or perhaps when you want to sell the car’s excess juice back to the grid.



Sounds far fetched? Nissan is already working on it nike air max flair predaj , and the requisite technologies are in the nascent stage of commercialisation. With architects Foster and Partners, the world’s biggest volume EV manufacturer has spent the last 12 months trying to figure out what the fuel station of the future might look like. The findings? That they won’t exist, and that their spiritual successor might be the electric car itself. ‘I think we both started out with the idea that this [fuel station of the future] might be an electrified version of an existing petrol station,’ says Foster and Partners’ head of design nike air max 2017 predaj , David Nelson. ‘But as we got into the discussion, we realised there’s a bigger picture.’



That bigger picture traverses the tricky ground of self-charging autonomous electric cars – both technologies that are already in the pipeline. A BMW 7-series can already park automatically in a garage by android car gps, and BMW is working with Daimler to standardise induction charging – while also tackling the peaks and troughs of renewable energies’ patterns of supply and demand.



As Nelson points out, ‘The big problem with renewable energy is: how do you store it? You’ve got to put it into a grid nike air max 2018 predaj , and the grid may just let it dissipate because the demand isn’t there that day.’ Equally, solar panels aren’t much use after dark, and nor are wind turbines if you can’t leave them running. So why not pump that electricity directly into an electric car while it is available, and then drive it home to be redistributed when those renewable sources are offline. Recycled EV batteries could be used as static storage cells; Tesla’s Powerwall not only offers car dvd player and android car stereo electrical?supply nike air max červene dámske , but also home energy storage, admittedly from solar cells.


So Nissan, and other car makers, are rapidly pursuing all these concepts. Director of Nissan’s electric vehicle business unit nike air max červene , Gareth Dunsmore, believes electricity and and car dvd will soon become another ‘sharable economy’ and refers the cynic to the ‘vehicle-to-grid’ trials currently taking place in Denmark. ‘For me,’ he says, ‘both vehicle-to-grid and second-life batteries will be commercialised in 2016. So this is now. In five years’ time it will be commonplace.’ He admits that the legislative challenges are ‘huge’ nike air max biele predaj , but points out, ‘We’ve spent the last five years pioneering electric vehicles and really trying to drive legislation to allow for the adoption of electric vehicles, so we’ve built up all the right contacts.’ Besides, ‘Governments have to change – or they will fail on their [environmental] commitments.’



When it comes to cost nike air max biele dámske , Dunsmore also points out that it’s ‘an awful lot cheaper to put in a charger than a petrol station’. Nelson adds that upgrading to wireless and then the car dvd?autonomous systems is ‘just a question of evolution and time’, especially since this solves the space-limited infrastructure legacies of existing cities by allowing vehicles to share a single charging point automatically. ‘You’ve got to start somewhere from an android car stereo. And a starting point where there is a level of distribution in urban streets would be very, very good.’


Considering that iPhone’s success within the marketplace, applications started to pour out and perhaps confused a lot of iPhone users his or her population grow every day leaving a wowing sensation to everybody. Alternatives and selections for these futuristic applications are endless as the marketplace begins to feel like they now have to possess an internet search engine to search for the applications that they particularly require for their gadgets or phones because reality know that many people wind up downloading applications that they are going to afterwards recognize to become much less valuable and useful as it utilizes the speed and performance of the gadget.


The number of application users include that with the quantity of application developers resulted to quite a few applications launched within the marketplace for everybody to seize so that as their numbers continue to multiply daily nike air max biele , confusion invaded the world of digital applications as things become clearly clutterish and disorganized. With this identical reason Apprica database integration decided to stand out from the rest by offering make-sense applications that all users will surely appreciate.
