The challenges in powering still more power hungry hearing aids with miniature energy sources, mainly batteries, are described by some history and examples. An overview of future technology for hearing aid energy sources is provided and examples are explained. Primary battery (non-rechargeable) technology like zinc air (ZnAir) and secondary technologies like nickel metal-hydride (NiMH), silver …

Electrical powered ferries meet the challenge?!
Everything starts with the why! Why do we need changes in the powering of short sea ferries? The shorts sea shipping is challenged by environmental, social and economic issues – in short there is a need to ensure sustainable transport. This presentation will show why we find that the E-ferry concept is found to be …

Battery activities at AU: Hydrothermal synthesis of battery materials
Recently, the development of hybrid and electrical vehicles and energy storage devices has raised the requirement on high–rate ability, safety and cyclability of lithium ion batteries. Use of carefully structured nanosized electrode materials is an effective approach to improve the high–rate ability. The AU battery activities focus on nanosized materials, and battery materials are synthesized …
