EU Member States have voted to impose tariffs on Chinese battery electric vehicles (BEVs) as talks with Beijing continue.

French battery start-up company WATTALPS has raised €11 million in Series A funding to further develop its modular and high-performance lithium-ion batteries featuring patented immersion cooling technology.

Battery-powered mobile handling plant is gradually gaining ground in ports, but there is a knowledge gap when it comes to the risk of fires.

The U.S. awards US$148 million in grants for port air quality improvements, focusing on electrification and reduction of truck emissions.

APM Terminals (APMT) is spending US$60M on equipment electrification. The programme includes buying five electric straddle carriers for its terminal in Barcelona.

Questions need to be asked about the sustainability of electric vehicles (EVs). Not counting steel or aluminium, the average electric car contains 205kg of minerals including rare earth metals, compared with 36kg for a conventional car, which contains no rare earth elements.
