Scientists Tackling Cost, Charge-Life of EVs

摘要

Just as every new technology thrives on its own promise, drawbacks and flaws in the initial design also hold back progress. For example, computers were once the size of a room. Calculators were initially too expensive for most people to own. Until recently, solar and wind power were seen almost exclusively as the domain of large industries. Through research and innovation, all of these technologies have been able to overcome their initial obstacles to a greater or lesser degree on their paths to becoming more affordable and accessible to mainstream consumers.
