Best of LinkedIn: Electrification & Battery Technology CW 32/ 33

We curate most relevant posts about Electrification & Battery Technology on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition discusses the evolution and challenges of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure globally. Key themes include the strategic shift towards high-speed charging over mere quantity, as seen in NYC's approach compared to London's, and the increasing importance of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology for grid stability and new revenue streams. The texts highlight the profitability struggles of Charge Point Operators (CPOs) due to high costs and low utilisation, alongside operational hurdles like grid connection limits, slow approvals, and data fragmentation. Several sources also address the need for innovative business models and government investment to accelerate EV adoption, particularly for heavy-duty vehicles, while emphasising the growing importance of cybersecurity, interoperability, and reliable home charging solutions.
