Vezetői összefoglaló (AI)
- According to Silicon Austria Labs, the research center, together with industry partners, has developed the world’s thinnest bidirectional 11-kilowatt on-board charger for electric cars: The Tiny Power Box 2.0 is only five centimeters high. The research project had a budget of 7.2 million euros.
- The Tiny Power Box 2.0 can charge a car battery with up to eleven kilowatts, feed electricity back into the house or public grid, and power the 12-volt electrical system. This could allow a parked electric car to serve as a storage unit for solar power in the future.
- After three and a half years of research, the Tiny Power Box 2.0 is available as a prototype. Follow-up projects are underway, but its use in production vehicles is still undecided; according to SAL, there is already interest from car manufacturers.
