Pouch-type batteries gain attention in defense, robots on thermal runaway management

Pouch-type batteries are drawing renewed interest in defense and robotics as battery companies expand beyond slowing EV demand into sectors such as energy storage. The format offers high energy density and design flexibility but has faced concerns about rapid heat transfer between cells during thermal runaway. With all-solid-state solutions still years away, competition is shifting to external safety materials such as thermal barriers. Demand is also emerging from submarines and robots, though high material costs remain a hurdle for mass adoption.

Pedal-equipped e-bike nears electric motorcycle specs with top speed of 98 kph

A pedal-equipped electric bicycle with performance close to an electric motorcycle is drawing attention. Chinese electric mobility firm Anioki has unveiled its A9 Pro Max Dual Motor 2.0, featuring dual motors rated up to 6,000W and a battery capacity close to 5 kWh. Higher-spec versions are listed with up to 7,000W output and a claimed top speed of 87 to 98 kph. The model raises questions over legal classification in key markets.

Battery data becomes shield as recourse claims open in EV fire compensation

South Korea began an \"EV Fire Peace-of-Mind Insurance\" scheme in July that compensates damage before the cause is determined. Policy terms allow insurers to seek recourse from vehicle owners or drivers, manufacturers including parts makers, importers, charging-facility owners or managers, or other liable third parties once fault is confirmed. Battery makers are excluded from insured parties and premiums, but can face claims if defects are found or if losses exceed coverage limits.
