Olympian Sportsman, KONE, Jabil and BYD feature as Cornerstones of the IDTechEx Show!

A representative of Fraunhofer IIS discusses their thermogenerator wristbands, which upconvert voltage collected to power commercial devices, such as bluetooth devices, smart watches, etc.

Lorandt Fölkel, Technology Ambassador for Würth Elektronik eiSos describes the products on display at the IDTechEx Show! Europe 2018.

Solar & Storage Live is one of the UK renewable energy industry's premier annual events and is attended by a range of technology developers and policy makers with an interest in the solar & storage market, both in the UK and internationally.

This coming November 14-15 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, leading players in the battery and energy storage industry will compete to capture the audience's attention over what technology is set to dominate in the coming decade.

The global generator set (genset) industry is amidst a period of change and is under pressure from a variety of external considerations.

Lightricity discuss their ambient light energy harvester, the highest in the world. In this case employed in a watch, however, other customers are applying it to different applications.

Thermoelectric energy harvesting is a failure when set against the publicity of participants over the last 30 years. "The roaring mountain gave forth a mouse". Current versions do not scale above kW and are rarely used above mW - serious because the market for energy harvesting above 1W is about 100 times the value market below.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Tuesday 23 October titled Multifunctionality is the key next step for polymer composites.

There were more presentations of the big picture.

As explained in our new fluoropolymer report, the market for these formulations will at least double in the next 20 years largely powered by new electrical and electronic applications exploiting properties many of which are not even measured let alone made consistent in today's production lines.

The global electric vehicle population reached 3 million units at the end of 2017, which represents approximately 0.23% of the global vehicle population. Electric vehicle producers have responded to consumer's range anxiety by increasing the available range per charge in their vehicles to more than 200 miles. However ultimately the deployment of electric vehicles will depend on the deployment of ubiquitous chargers.
