Ford Motor Company and Samsung SDI join forces to develop next-generation battery technology This will increase the economy of Ford’s non-hybrid vehicles in the future.
The two big companies have been collaborating on hybrid technology research and development for 10 years, the latest in their portfolio is the Dual-Battery System, a combination of a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid 12 battery. Volt, which gives conventional engine vehicles the same improved braking power and fuel economy similar to that of a hybrid car.
The braking power restoration system, built into Ford hybrids, allows the battery to increase energy during braking and convert energy to electricity. The system restores power while braking is also in conjunction with the automatic start-stop system, which further enhances the economy.
“We are expanding automatic start and stop technology to be installed in 70% of Ford vehicles sold worldwide. While a two-power battery system can help increase energy savings in our cars. Even in the process of doing research But these types of batteries can reduce their carbon footprint in the short term, ”said Ted Miller, senior manager of research at Energy Storage Strategy at Ford.
Meanwhile, the Live Life Drive website reported that Ford is also developing extremely lightweight lithium-ion batteries. Which will be built into the future lithium-ion batteries installed in electric trains
