The technology that is being developed at the University of Aveiro is called Modular Electric Energy Storage Device (DMAE) and aims to reduce the resistance option for the electric car. Simplistically, consists of a metal structure that houses lithium-ion battery – the same as fitted to electric cars -. And which is movable to be installed in a truck
Reduce waiting times to load the car, overcome The limitations of the electricity grid and enable business models arising from the storage of electricity, will be the distinctive features of this technology, being mobile, not only can meet the drivers who chose an ecological car as well as carry out the storage of electricity in any central renewable energy production.
The DMAE will become an electric truck running energy storage, such as a tanker stores fossil fuel. Although dependent on the type and capacity of the batteries that are inserted into the DMAE, the idea is to be able to supply simultaneously ten electric cars in quickly.
The project, partially supported by Innovation Valley, lasted a year and was developed in partnership with D2M-Energytransit company, which belongs to patent the DMAE. Tests carried out by the prototype built in DEM lab gave results that meet the expectations of the company.
