AI-Governed EV Charging Could Extend Battery Life Nearly 23%
Tesla is collaborating with the U.S. government to enhance electric vehicle charging infrastructure by opening 7,500 Superchargers to all EV brands by 2024. Researchers have developed an AI-based charging algorithm that can extend battery life by approximately 23% while maintaining charge times. This innovative approach adapts charging behavior based on the battery's health, potentially revolutionizing how EV batteries are managed.
- ▪Tesla plans to open 7,500 Superchargers to all electric vehicle brands by the end of 2024.
- ▪A new AI-based charging algorithm can prolong battery life by about 23% while keeping charge times consistent.
- ▪The algorithm adapts charging behavior based on the battery's state of health, potentially eliminating the need for dedicated sensors.
