Ettractive Inc. Announces New Truck Program for New EV Tech Developers

 Ettractive today announced the launch of their Next Generation Truck Program, offering the opportunity for developers of new electrification technology to be part of a focused vehicle marketing and demonstration program in the North American market.

“There is such a high quantity and quality of emerging technology that is right on the fringes of the mainstream. With this program, we are actively seeking out those companies who are developing this tech and giving them an opportunity to be part of this North American market truck.” – Pat Troy CTO, Ettractive Inc.

With continual advancements in the market, Ettractive will provide a platform for these technologies aboard a demonstration vehicle which seeks to showcase the latest and greatest products and services. During the program, Ettractive will integrate each of the selected products into a class 4-6 truck which will visit each of the major truck and fleet trade shows in the US and Canada in late 2022 and 2023. The truck will be available for ride-and-drive events and individually-scheduled demonstrations for the potential customers of the technology suppliers, with all logistics facilitated by Ettractive.

“We’re providing a platform to assemble and integrate all of this tech together on one vehicle and show the possibilities of electric trucking at the leading edge of the industry. Ettractive’s integration capability will also be on display, as we integrate and optimize the various advancements for this vehicle.” – Patrick Thompson Business Development Leader, Ettractive Inc.

The Next Generation Truck Program is currently soliciting new technologies from around the globe which are capable of pushing the boundaries of large vehicle electrification. Developers of battery, charging and propulsion technology are of particular interest to the program, including new cell chemistries and multi-speed transmissions or e-axles. Auxiliary systems such as power steering, HVAC, thermal management and braking also represent big opportunities for increases in efficiency of commercial electric vehicles. Ettractive will provide all mechanical, electrical and digital integration of the selected system into a North American market truck at its R&D center in Windsor, Ontario. The timeline for the program will be contingent on delivery timelines from the selected parties. Tech selection will be completed by Q1 2022. All interested companies should contact Ettractive via nextgentruck@ettractive.com.

Australian scientists discover how to turn air into electricity

A group of researchers from Monash University in Australia have made a breakthrough in renewable energy by discovering an enzyme that can generate electricity from the air we breathe.  The enzyme, called Huc, is found in a common soil bacterium and can turn hydrogen gas into a current that can power small electronic devices.  The researchers suggest that this technology could power devices such as medical sensors, wearable exercise monitors, or small computer circuits that run passively on air.  Huc has the potential to replace batteries that consume scarce resources, including rare earth elements.  However, the researchers believe that the enzyme would not be a viable way to produce large amounts of electricity and would be best suited for low-voltage power supply applications.  The researchers seek investment to develop this technology further and hope to see it on the market within a decade.
