Nissan Is Advancing with Its Plan to Deliver Solid-State Batteries by 2028 and Has Developed a New Production Unit Exclusively for These Electric Vehicle Components.

Nissan, when announcing its “Ambition 2030” plan at the end of November last year, made the promise to launch electric vehicles powered by internally developed solid-state batteries by 2028 and reaffirmed its commitment this Monday (11). Now, the Japanese manufacturer is on track to fulfill that promise. A prototype plant for the production of these components has been built at Nissan’s Research Center in Kanagawa Prefecture.

As stated by the automaker, with Ambition 2030, the goal is to develop a pilot production line at its Yokohama factory, where, according to plans, the first prototypes of the solid-state batteries will be produced by 2024.

Following this strategy, the manufacturer believes that the production cost of the component could drop to US$ 75 per kWh by 2028 and US$ 65 in the following years, making it possible for electric vehicles to achieve cost parity with their predecessors that use internal combustion engines, the major turning point in the energy transition.

“The goal of the Japanese automaker is to utilize this innovative new technology in a wide range of vehicles, including pickup trucks, making its electric cars more competitive in the global automotive market,” said the company’s Executive Vice President of Research & Development, Kunio Nakaguro.

According to the executive, Nissan is a leader in electrification technology through extensive Research & Development, from molecular-level battery materials to high-performance electric cars. The company’s studies also include the development of cities that utilize this type of cleaner vehicle for energy storage.

The experience and knowledge gained over the years contribute to the advancement of solid-state batteries. The Research and Development and Manufacturing divisions will continue to work together to ensure that the new prototype unit is utilized effectively to accelerate the application and market arrival of solid-state batteries.

Nissan Invests in Clean Fuel Project: e-Bio Fuel Cell

Since 2016, the Japanese automaker has been investing in the e-Bio Fuel Cell project, which uses ethanol or a mixture of ethanol and water to power a fuel cell. The Japanese company claims that this technology will enable the electric car to achieve a range greater than 600 km, matching the level of electric cars with a larger range in Brazil.

With this technology, energy is generated in the fuel cell as a result of a chemical reaction between hydrogen carried by oxygen from the air and the vehicle. An electric converter located beneath the fuel cell contributes voltage to the motor, which powers the entire system.

This technology has the potential to complement internal combustion engines, electric cars, and plug-in hybrids in the long term, possibly serving as an alternative to battery electric cars. The Japanese automaker believes that the development of this technology should complement hybrid cars. However, there is a hypothesis that fuel cell vehicles could be their successors in a more distant future.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The world has been generating 80% of electricity by boiling water for 200 years, but China has just turned on a machine that replaces steam with supercritical CO2 and promises to jump from 33% to 50% efficiency.

At a depth of 914 meters, a team accidentally discovers a pirate ship with cannons, a telescope, and objects from three continents on the seabed, uncovering a mystery that has haunted Europe for centuries.

Brazilian producers are leaving Roraima to plant in Guyana, where the government offers land on concession and does not charge taxes, while in Brazil the harvest faces high interest rates and a bureaucracy that hinders even the use of the rivers.

Instead of digging new holes, scientists dive into an abandoned acid mine lake in Montana and discover that the toxic water has already done the work of extracting rare earths from the rock on its own.
