Description
Understand the batteries that will power the sustainable transition from innovators who are making it happen
The transition from fossil-fuel based energy sources to electricity is one of the most crucial technological milestones in the world today. The surge of electric vehicle production will require hundreds of millions of electric vehicle batteries, the creation of which have environmental impacts of their own. There is an urgent need for resources which analyse these impacts, their role in the life cycle of a battery, and the broader challenges and opportunities of this electric transition.
Electric Vehicle Batteries: From Sourcing to Second Life and Recycling meets this need with a thorough, accessible overview of batteries: how they are made, used, and re-used. Balancing theory and practice, and with coverage of all relevant vehicle types, it’s a crucial resource for engineers, scientists, students, and instructors. Created by some of the leading experts in the mobility industry, Electric Vehicle Batteries is a decisive contribution to the fight for a sustainable future.
In Electric Vehicle Batteries: From Sourcing to Second Life and Recycling, readers will find:
- A programmatic structure for creating new engineering practices and teams that support them
- A safety-first approach to handling volatile materials
- An authorial and editorial team with extensive experience in both engineering and management
Electric Vehicle Batteries: From Sourcing to Second Life and Recycling is ideal for reskilling engineers, undergraduate students, and other new entrants into the rapidly expanding field of electric vehicle production.
