In the constant battle between range, weight, torque, and battery size, conventional EV motor design seems to be lagging when it comes to inventiveness. Traditional permanent magnet brushless motors can provide variable speed outputs, with their motors generating high torque at low speeds and high speed at low torque levels. However, the range of speed and torque characteristics may not be sufficient to cover the desired range, even if the output power of the motor is sufficient. 

In October, Rho Motion—a company specializing in vehicle markets and economics, and providing forecasts and analyses for the energy transition—organized a seminar series seminar series focused on EV batteries and motors.  

Our participation in a panel session at CENEX-Low Carbon Vehicle (LCV2021) elicited some serious interest and we’re more confident than ever that our system will change the fate of electric propulsion.  

Most high-tech goods tend to get cheaper as they are manufactured at increasing volumes, but only up to a point. The electric vehicle industry is growing, but its sudden and dramatic early growth means that matching earlier savings will be difficult, and the law of diminishing returns has set in as shown by the flattening curves.
