Challenges and opportunities for high-quality battery production at scale
As the world electrifies, global battery production is expected to surge. However, batteries are both difficult to produce at the gigawatt-hour scale and sensitive to minor manufacturing variation. As a result, the battery industry has already experienced both highly-visible safety incidents and under-the-radar reliability issues—a trend that will only worsen if left unaddressed. Here we highlight both the challenges and opportunities to enable battery quality at scale. We first describe the interplay between various battery failure modes and their numerous root causes. We then discuss how to manage and improve battery quality during production. We hope our perspective brings greater visibility to the battery quality challenge to enable safe global electrification.

With the highest torque motor in its class, advanced suspension, and a second battery option, the X-Class 60V outperforms the competition. For a limited time, the PPB Edition includes a free second battery and charger for extended range.
ZIV position:Standardised charging system for e-bikes - ZIV – German Bicycle Industry
A standardised e-bike charging system is not currrently necessary for private charging, but could be beneficial for public charging.
EnergyBus
EnergyBus is an open standard and purpose-made bus system for the electrical components in Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) such as pedelecs, e-bikes, e-scooters, and also for energy management systems. With a plug family, charge socket and a charging protocol based on CANopen, EnergyBus is specifical
EBike / EScooter modular DIY OpenSource electronics and software
Over the years I did own a few different EBikes / EScooters from different brands, and I always found limitations on all of them, mainly on the software. Knowing that in general, all EBikes and EScooters are equal, I decided to replace the original motor controller electronics and display of all my EBikes/EScooters, with my own modular DIY version and running my software.
Electrification | Ember
Electrification can refer to different processes depending on the context. For example, increasing electricity access in emerging economies. At Ember, we focus on a specific type of electrification: replacing fossil fuels with electricity in sectors like transport, heating and industry. This kind of electrification cuts emissions and improves energy efficiency by replacing fossil fuels with clean power.
