Innovation & Strategic Design
” UNStudio and Monopol Colors have created an extremely reflective white paint that can reduce the amount of heat buildings absorb and cool cities in the face of climate change“
” You’ve probably read that 34 percent of Norway car sales in 2018 were pure EVs. And that EV sales will eclipse 50 percent of the market this year. But it’s another thing for your head to constantly spin in circles when you are surrounded by electric cars. About one in eight cars on Oslo roads are now electric.“
” In 2020, Volkswagen Group Components, an independent business unit of Volkswagen AG, will start production of a fast charging station capable of charging four vehicles simultaneously and providing energy storage when not in use. The charging stations will be manufactured at a components plant in Hanover, replacing the plant’s current heat exchanger production area.“
” Researchers at Washington University have created a new fuel cell technology that creates double the voltage of a conventional fuel cell. The breakthrough could lead to longer range electric airplanes, among other advances in transportation.”
