In my blog ( 21 April 2017 ) , I had suggested setting up at
the Centre , a Minister in charge of Technology Evaluation and Acquisition
In that blog ( sent as E Mail to Central Ministers ) , I had recommended
investigating / evaluating , some 11 / 12
technologies , which are under development in different parts of
the World and which could provide solutions to some of our very pressing NATIONAL PROBLEMS
One of these listed by me was :
Rapid charging ( within 5
minutes ) Lithium Ion Batteries
used in Electric Cars ( current batteries take 5 / 7 hours for full charging ! ) , under
development by an Israeli Start Up called “ StoreDot “
Unfortunately , in my email , I forgot to provide the
following address of StoreDot :
( StoreDot Ltd. I 3 Shenkar St. Herzeliya I Israel 4672503 / Call Us: +972
3 5097710
Fax: +972 9 7677937 I Email: info@store-dot.com )
Today’s DNA ( 18 Sept ) carries a report titled :
“ Daimler enters super-fast battery charging tech “
… and that’s why Daimler is investing in Israeli start up StoreDot , which is a company working on ground breaking
developments in electric vehicle battery technology ….
But as ranges of over 300 miles are now being
achieved by the likes of TESLA , it seems the emphasis might be shifting to charging times .
And that’s where StoreDot comes in because it’s working on developing a way
an electric vehicle can be fully recharged in as little as FIVE MINUTES
Will we find ourselves “ too late “ also
for those other 10 technologies recommended by me for evaluation ?
When will learn to do “ Business @ the
Speed of Thought “ , advocated by Bill Gates , many years back ?
