| Ford & Purdue patent new charging tech; Allows EVs to charge as fast as filling fuel American car giant, Ford has partnered with Purdue University to patent a new technology that could significantly bring down the charging times of electric vehicles.  According to reports, the new technology focuses on heat management. This comes in the form of a special liquid cooling process that mitigates overheating of the cables, allowing for higher currents to pass through - in turn, reducing charging times for EVs. The new liquid-cooling technology allows the cooling agent to change phase from liquid to vapour, improving its heat dissipation capabilities. In addition to this, the new technology also makes use of special cables, capable of handling the higher surge of currents. Ford hopes that the new technology will allow EVs to charge almost as fast as filling up a tank of fuel. However, the technology is still a couple of years away from even its prototyping stage.
