Wednesday 1 December 2021 - A market update on electric vehicles; Technology trends to watch out for in electric vehicle powertrains (electric motors, power electronics, cell-to-pack); The levelling up of autonomous vehicles; Opportunities for fuel cell electric vehicles.

This IDTechEx article explores the trends and future uptake of copper and silver sintering as enabling die-attach materials for next-gen power electronics.

The ChargedEVs online conference presents many topics around the electric vehicle (EV) market. In this subscriber-only article, IDTechEx cover the presentations that focussed on motors and their materials.

For electric vehicles (EVs), efficiency is the name of the game. In the past few years, we have started to see wide bandgap semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) adopted in EV inverters to replace the typical silicon insulated-gate bipolar transistors (Si IGBTs).

Thursday 7 October 2021 - This webinar will be covering: Overview of electric vehicle markets in 2021; Widebandgap semiconductor technologies in electric vehicle power electronics; Technology and materials trends; and High voltage electric vehicles.

World Electric Vehicle Day is here, and, as an industry analyst, it presents a great occasion to take a retrospective look at the past decade of innovation and disruption.

To mark National Aviation Day, a celebration of the history and development of aviation, IDTechEx analysts consider the future of electric aircraft.

Whilst IDTechEx expects EVs to continually improve in safety, there will always be the risk of a battery fire due to many potential causes. This presents an opportunity for those material suppliers making thermal interface materials (TIMs), flame-retardant materials, or fire protection materials.
