Talga to Make Conductive Concrete That Will Charge EVs as They Drive
An Australian Junior graphite player, Talga Resources, plans to make concrete that will conduct electricity and charge electric vehicles as they drive, among other intriguing tasks.
Speaking to investors on Monday morning, Talga MD said that the company’s graphene-enhanced concrete achieves high electrical conductivity that could be used as the heating element in an electric stove.
The fascinating property of this technology is the ability to recharge electric vehicles both static and in motion.
The heated concrete could also be used to:
- To melt down snow and ice from roads during winter and get rid of the need for ploughs and de-icing chemicals as well as corrosive salt.
- As an electromagnetic interference shield to protect electric devices.
- As strain sensors and lightning protection.
