Samsung with batteries for electric cars. Battle with Tesla? https://citymagazine.si/en/samsung-with-batteries-for-electric-cars-battle-with-tesla/ Wed, 20 Sep 2017 03:02:55 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=321128

The batteries that power the cars of the future (can we say the present?) may be the biggest obstacle to the electric car industry from blossoming into perfection. They are underpowered and it is difficult to expect that we will be ready to 'refuel' every few kilometers (we are exaggerating a bit). But Samsung is said to have a solution.

Tesla Model S 100D set a new milestone - now a record electric range https://citymagazine.si/en/tesla-model-s-100d-set-a-new-milestone-now-a-record-electric-range/ Thu, 26 Jan 2017 07:03:39 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=285476

The Tesla Model S 100D is now betting on what really counts. Reach. While we've been hearing about its incredible acceleration for the last few months - these are enviable, but ordinary mortals can't help much with acceleration under three seconds - Tesla Motors has added a version to the 'collection' with a new 100 kWh battery that allows more than a 500-kilometer range and can boast the longest autonomy of an electric car. This is something that has a much greater added value for the customer than light acceleration.

Ginkgo - a tree-inspired solar charger for phones and tablets https://citymagazine.si/en/tree-inspired-ginkgo-solar-charger-for-phones-and-tablets/ Mon, 22 Jun 2015 04:22:38 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=169211

If plants thrive, why not technology? That is, converting sunlight into energy. The Ginkgo solar charger, which was "raised" by XD Design and which addresses the growing need for charging mobile devices and green politics, was inspired by them or solar cells. The idea for the design grew from the tall, lanky, sparsely branched and long-lived ginkgo tree, which Charles Darwin called a living fossil. With the difference that this Ginkgo has a built-in lithium battery with a capacity of 4000 mAh.

Tesla with batteries that store solar energy and will change the course of history https://citymagazine.si/en/tesla-with-batteries-that-store-solar-energy-and-will-change-the-course-of-history/ Sat, 02 May 2015 06:24:01 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=159373

Elon Musk, the father of the electric car brand Tesla, is not nicknamed the Steve Jobs of the automobile for nothing. He proved this once more when he introduced the Tesla Powerwall batteries, which have the ability to store solar energy. These would or will power homes, businesses, maybe even the entire world. By being able to store the energy of solar cells for later use, which until now has been the biggest obstacle in the use of renewable energy sources, they are changing not only the "producer" of electricity, but the very course of history.
