First Name: Jim Last Name: Stack Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: Subject: ZEV vehicles Comment: The only true ZEV vehicles are pure electric that chanrge on renewables Today 96% of the hydrogen is made from fossil fuels. This can be improved on but will take a long time. Today we already have very good Electric Vehicles liek the RAV4 with NiMH batteries that have lasted over 100,000 miles. Too bad Toyota stopped making it. We also have the Tesla and Ebox. Please do what is right. Jim Attachment: Original File Name: Date and Time Comment Was Submitted: 2008-02-16 11:19:59 No Duplicates.

First Name: Star Last Name: Irvine Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: NEV Owner Subject: MSV in ZEV regulations Comment: I as a NEV owner (use my OKA NEV ZEV about 3,000 miles annually) would like to see MSV (Medium Speed Vehicles) included in ZEV mandate so they can be available in California. I own two other vehicles FORD FOCUS and FORD Crown Vic. I my OKA NEV could go 35 MPH I would drive it at least twice as much as I currently do, and I would feel much safer doing so. 25 MPH top speed for NEV seriously limits its use and practicality for every day commuting.

    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in Finance from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics. Tesla: A Sequence of Belief Ted Lucas Andersson, 34028 A Project carried out on the Master in Finance Program, under the supervision of: Professor Paulo Soares de Pinho 03-01-2020 Abstract: Title: Tesla: A Sequence of Belief This case analyses the many challenges and achievements of a start-up company on its pursuit to take on the traditional players in an industry that is difficult to enter and succeed in. Additionally, this case details the road Tesla embarked on which tested investor confidence as Tesla strived to deliver on its increasingly ambitious goals. Furthermore, the case explores the strategic fit of merging two companies that are operating in two different industries but face similar financial problems arising from increasing debt levels and lack of profits. Keywords: Capital Raising, Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions, Conflict of Interest This work used infrastructure and resources funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (UID/ECO/00124/2013, UID/ECO/00124/2019 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209), POR Lisboa (LISBOA-01-0145-FEDER-007722 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209) and POR Norte (Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209). 1 Introduction On November 17, 2016, Jason Wheeler, Tesla’s CFO, had just received confirmation that the deal had closed for his company’s much-debated acquisition of SolarCity – a solar energy company that designs, finances and installs solar power systems. With leadership celebrations on the evening’s agenda Jason could not help but to ponder on the future of the growing company.

  • Nickel–Metal Hydride Battery - Wikipedia 3/14/20, 1023 AM
    Nickel–metal hydride battery - Wikipedia 3/14/20, 1023 AM Nickel–metal hydride battery A nickel metal hydride battery, abbreviated NiMH or Ni– Nickel–metal hydride MH, is a type of rechargeable battery. The chemical reaction at battery the positive electrode is similar to that of the nickel–cadmium cell (NiCd), with both using nickel oxide hydroxide (NiOOH). However, the negative electrodes use a hydrogen-absorbing alloy instead of cadmium. A NiMH battery can have two to three times the capacity of an equivalent size NiCd, and its energy density can approach that of a lithium-ion battery. Contents History Electrochemistry Modern NiMH rechargeable cells Bipolar battery Specific energy 60–120 Wh/kg Charge Energy density 140–300 Wh/L Trickle charging Specific power 250–1,000 ΔV charging method W/kg ΔT charging method Charge/discharge 66%[1]–92%[2] Safety efficiency Loss of capacity Self-discharge 13.9–70.6% at Discharge rate room Over-discharge temperature Self-discharge 36.4–97.8% at Low self-discharge 45 °C Compared to other battery types Low self- discharge: Applications 0.08–2.9%[3] Consumer electronics (per month) Electric vehicles [4] [5] Patent Issues Cycle durability 180 –2000 cycles See also Nominal cell 1.2 V References voltage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel–metal_hydride_battery Page 1 of 12 Nickel–metal hydride battery - Wikipedia 3/14/20, 1023 AM External links History Work on NiMH batteries began at the Battelle-Geneva Research Center following the technology's invention in 1967.

  • Powertrain Technology and Cost Assessment of Battery Electric Vehicles
    Powertrain Technology and Cost Assessment of Battery Electric Vehicles by Helen Qin A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science in Automotive Engineering In the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science University of Ontario Institute of Technology Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, 2010 © Helen Qin, 2010 Abstract This thesis takes EV from the late 90’s as a baseline, assess the capability of today’s EV technology, and establishes its near-term and long-term prospects. Simulations are performed to evaluate EVs with different combinations of new electric machines and battery chemistries. Cost assessment is also presented to address the major challenge of EV commercialization. This assessment is based on two popular vehicle classes: subcompact and mid-size. Fuel, electricity and battery costs are taken into consideration for this study. Despite remaining challenges and concerns, this study shows that with production level increases and battery price-drops, full function EVs could dominate the market in the longer term. The modeling shows that from a technical and performance standpoint both range and recharge times already fall into a window of practicality, with few if any compromises relative to conventional vehicles. Electric vehicles are the most sustainable alternative personal transportation technology available to-date. With continuing breakthroughs, minimal change to the power grid, and optimal GHG reductions, emerging electric vehicle performance is unexpectedly high. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my advisor Dr. Greg Rohrauer, whose wisdom, guidance and mentoring has guided me throughout my study and the writing of this thesis. Direct funding support from Auto21 and benefits of involvement with EcoCAR: the NeXt Challenge is graciously acknowledged.
