Nissan Motor Co. is betting that its experience pioneering lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles over a decade ago will give it an upper hand in producing a new battery type that, despite being new and still relatively unproven, is considered by some as key to unlocking the future potential of EVs. Nissan is producing prototype solid-state battery cells -- which replace the electrical current-conducting liquid found in conventional batteries with a solid substance -- at a facility resembling a pop-up lab inside its research grounds near its Yokohama headquarters. The Japanese automaker plans to bring the new type of batteries to market by fiscal year 2028, readying a pilot plant for them ahead of that around 2024. If they can be manufactured, solid-state batteries would unlock cheaper, safer and faster-charging EVs, according to automotive executives and battery experts. Using different material combinations, Nissan predicts it will eventually be able to produce a solid-state battery pack that costs $65 (¥8,063) per kilowatt-hour -- a level at which analysts say EVs could reach price parity with gasoline-engine cars.

The upstream oil and gas industry could save up to $75 billion a year by 2023 with the deployment of so-called "big data," new research by consultancy Wood Mackenzie reveals. Embracing advances in analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence could pay big dividends for the industry. These savings can be realized at every stage of the upstream lifecycle, Kallanish Energy learns. "Digitalization offers multiple prizes in exploration. The biggest would be to uncover new resources … but anyone with a competitive advantage in exploration would have a material advantage in licensing or M&A," Greig Aitken, principal analyst in Wood Mackenzie's corporate analysis team, said Monday.

World petrol demand will peak within 13 years thanks to the impact of electric cars and more efficient engines, energy experts have predicted. UK-based Wood Mackenzie said it expected the take-up of electric vehicles to cut gasoline demand significantly, particularly beyond 2025 as the battery-powered cars go mainstream. Combined with car manufacturers forced by regulations to produce models that run further on the same amount of oil, a new report by the analysts suggests global gasoline demand is likely to peak by 2030. The UK and France have recently said they will phase out sales of new petrol and diesel cars by 2040. China, the world's biggest car market, is mulling a similar move, which would have a significant impact on oil demand.
