Runs Faster And Longer Hybrid Car
Emile Greenhalgh’s laboratory at Imperial College London researchers have modified a model of a hybrid vehicle to increase the amount of electrical energy it can store by adding body components that double as capacitors, devices that hold an electrical charge until they are tapped. On the same time designers of full-scale electric vehicles are working … Continue reading
