Episode 20 of the Modern Chemistry podcast features Nigel Taylor. Nigel is the founder of www.batterydesign.net – ‘Designed by battery engineers for battery engineers’. Nigel frequently posts updates and useful information on the state of EV batteries through batterydesign.net and his related social media channels. Prior to founding batterydesign.net, Nigel has gained over thirty years of experience in the automotive industry with companies such as Jaguar Land Rover, and Rover Group, more recently concentrating on low carbon and electric vehicles. ***UPDATE TO THE CONTENT IN THE PODCAST – Nigel would like to note that the 400 kWh per kWh required to manufacture a battery is a slightly out-of-date figure. Currently, it is closer to 50-150 kWh per kWh of battery power.***
