The most expensive component of an EV is the battery pack. As well as increasing the energy density and reducing the cost of the battery cells, another avenue to cost reduction is through more efficient packaging of the cells.https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/reducing-and-eliminating-thermal-interface-materials-in-ev-batteries/31614?rsst2id=169https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/reducing-and-eliminating-thermal-interface-materials-in-ev-batteries/31614?rsst2id=169Fri, 23 Aug 2024 ZZZj.edmondson@idtechex.com (Dr James Edmondson)
