According to the company, the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in 4 minutes and 37 seconds, twice the speed of most current electric vehicles with fast charging batteries. Nyobolt used materials that allow electrons to be transferred more quickly between the anode and cathode, as well as cells with low impedance (a circuit\u2019s resistance to the passage of an electrical current), which generate less heat and make it easier to manage high power levels while charging. The product is based on research into supercapacitors, which complement batteries and allow a charge to be transferred to an electrode within minutes, carried out at the University of Cambridge by Clare Grey and Sai Shivareddy, the company\u2019s cofounder and CEO (University of Cambridge, July 1; <em>Science<\/em>, April 18).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Electric car battery prototype can be charged in five minutes","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1651],"tags":[227,243,2413],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-545413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-notes","tag-energy","tag-innovation","tag-technology"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/545413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=545413"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/545413\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":545422,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/545413\/revisions\/545422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=545413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=545413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=545413"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=545413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
