A world leading battery electrochemist is on New Zealand’s shores. 

Dr Euan McTurk will be speaking at a function put on by Drive Electric, aiming to provide an international perspective on the availability of raw materials for EV batteries. 

Discussions will also be had about the current technology, and where it’s heading. 

McTurk told Mike Hosking that there’s quite a lot of interesting development at the moment. 

He said that there’s a great diversification of chemistries and materials being used for batteries, beyond the standard lithium-ion batteries.
