Cracks in lithium-ion batteries actually speed up electric vehicle charging. This runs counter to the view of many EV manufacturers.

Nickel could reduce or even eliminate the use of cobalt in lithium-ion batteries, which is often mined using child labor.

A new approach uses game theory to try to improve user access to electric vehicle charging stations, researchers report.

The vast majority of electric vehicle owners charge their cars at home in the evening or overnight. They're doing it wrong, researchers say.

The US is unlikely to reach its own goal of 50% penetration of electric vehicles by 2030 unless the cars become more affordable.

"The goal is to design a better battery and, traditionally, the industry has tried to do that using trial and error testing." New work may speed things up.

What's the best place for an electrical vehicle charging station? A new model shows it may depend on who you ask.

A new 1,000 cycle lithium-sulfur battery made with nanofibers recycled from Kevlar has the potential to quintuple the range of electric cars.

Shared e-scooters and e-bikes are supposedly climate friendly, but a new study suggests they may emit more CO2 emissions than the alternatives they replace.

Electric vehicles could send energy back to power grids while they're parked, researchers report. The process could also save owners money each year.
