This EV battery fully recharges in just 18 seconds — and it just got the green light for mass production
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. A British firm has received approval to mass-produce an ultra-high-power-density electric vehicle (EV) battery that can be fully recharged in just 18 seconds. The RML Group was granted Conformity of Production certification for its VarEVolt battery on June 2. This government approval signifies that the firm can mass-produce the powerful batteries for EV manufacturers. The certification "underlines our readiness to move from prototyping and niche volumes to supporting larger production contracts," James Arkell, the head of powertrain at RML Group, said in a statement. RML's battery can deliver lots of power in a short span. The VarEVolt battery can supply 6 kilowatts per kilogram, and it's capable of "dumping all its power really, really quickly," RML board member Michael Mallock told Autocar. The battery has a C rating of 200, meaning it's capable of fully charging or discharging in about 18 seconds. In comparison, the fully electric Porsche Taycan's battery has a C rating of around 4 to 5, so it takes 12 to 15 minutes to charge or discharge. The VarEVolt's modular design lets manufacturers tune it for different applications. "We can focus on range, we can focus on power, or we can balance the two," depending on the type of vehicle it will be deployed in, RML Group CEO Paul Dickinson told Autocar. Some small-scale manufacturers are already using the VarEVolt battery; it helps power the futuristic Czinger 21C hybrid hypercar, which relies on a combination of an electric motor that uses energy stored in the battery and an internal combustion engine that burns gasoline. Related stories —'Single crystal' electrodes could power EVs for millions of miles —'Springy' solid-state battery is twice the width of a white blood cell and could drastically increase EV range —Honda promises solid-state batteries that could double EV range to 620 miles by 2030 Right now, the RML group is producing just a few of the VarEVolt batteries at a time, but future large-scale output wouldn't necessarily be confined to exclusive products like the 21C. (Czinger produced just 80 of the luxury sports cars in the first run.) The firm is developing a kit to convert the battery packs in older hypercars, such as the LaFerrari or the McLaren P1, to updated versions, according to Mallock. "For those types of cars, we can do a replacement pack that will significantly increase the range, and if the rest of the hardware within the car would allow it, you could have a version that was eight times the power output," Mallock told Autocar.

Closing Bell: ASX pares back gains as energy sector deflates
ASX 200 pares back strong early gains Energy sector fizzles out as tech, telcos and gold forge ahead Ressies RML and PGD among gainers, Cettire smashed If we said, "See Eddy's markets Lunch Wrap, but just plug in a few different stats", could we call it a day? Would that cut it? Because, ever since that update was posted, aside from the air clearly being released from the market in a disappointing afternoon malaise, that just about sums it up. We'd best fill in some gaps, though, as that's the job. A bit like it'd overslept in a flotation tank, the ASX 200 was a docile, shrivelled version of its recent bold self in the afternoon session, giving up a promising start to finish down 0.31%. Still, yesterday's new personal best for the benchmark remains fresh in the memory. Looking at the sectors, tech, telcos and utilities were the biggest winners. Materials and financials were the biggest losers. Energy fizzled out after a strong start – possibly due to some initial optimism about the oil price jump waning and a general potpourri of emotions following a pretty volatile session on Wall Street. Healthcare/biotech stocks also managed to trade fairly flat. Earlier, the sector was weighed down by Cochlear's earnings downgrade news. Tune in (actually, read) Tim Boreham's Health Check for more on that. The local hearing solutions heavyweight was, however, looking a little more… sound, at the end of play (+0.58% intraday). The Gold Index was a bright spot, lifting 2.56% as markets remain uncertain despite some optimism creeping in for Fed rate cuts and the news yesterday that America and China have hugged out some of their trade tiff (for now). As Eddy noted earlier: Trump said last night the US and China had struck a deal, with China expected to send over rare earths and magnets, and in return, the US will let Chinese students back into unis. That doesn't mean Trump's done with the tariffs trauma. Probably far from it. Per the Australian's Valerina Changarathil: "Trump's warning about setting trade tariffs on major economies in the coming weeks kept Asian markets on edge in the afternoon" today. Meanwhile, the energy sector's early strong performance today was underpinned by the biggest one-day jump in oil prices since October, with the important black stuff bubbling over 4% overnight thanks to shrinking US stockpiles and fresh Middle East tension – which likely also explains gold's strong day (the precious commodity is up 0.58% at the time of writing and trading at US$3,380). After helping carry the bourse to a 0.2% gain at lunch, $44.56bn market capped Woodside Energy Group (ASX:WDS) finished the day down 0.2% per cent to $23.47, while Santos (ASX:STO) pared itself back to a 0.15% gain at close and a $6.71 share price.

enCore Energy Receives Radioactive Materials License for Upper Spring Creek ISR Uranium Project, South Texas; Commences Construction
DALLAS, May 29, 2025 /CNW/ - enCore Energy Corp. (NASDAQ:EU| TSXV: EU) (the "Company" or "enCore"), America's Clean Energy Company TM, today announced the approval for the inclusion of the Upper Spring Creek In-Situ Recovery ("ISR") Uranium Project (the "Project") in the existing Radioactive Materials License ("RML") from the TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality). This license allows enCore to handle radioactive materials, which includes the final product, U 3 O 8 ("uranium"). The current RML includes the Rosita Uranium Project, which has now been extended to cover the Upper Spring Creek Project's Brown Area. The RML allows the construction of wellfields and a Satellite Ion Exchange ("IX") Plant to commence, which will feed the Rosita ISR Uranium Central Processing Plant ("CPP"). These Satellite IX Plants, located adjacent to wellfields, are a key part of the satellite ISR process; they are modular, efficient, and relocatable, allowing for cost-effective uranium extraction across multiple remote sites which can be moved once a wellfield is depleted. The RML is scheduled for renewal in 2032, provided the Project's operation remains in compliance. The RML provides safety, material handling, record keeping and reporting protocols. William M. Sheriff, Executive Chairman of enCore Energy stated: "The receipt of the RML, allowing enCore to build its next remote Satellite Ion Exchange Plant and wellfield in a timely manner from application, is a testament to the efficiency of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. The ability to operate and issue these critical permits under authority of being an Agreement State in conjunction with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission is a clear competitive advantage for enCore. This is our third permitted facility in Texas with each of our preceding permits having been granted in 20 months or less. The Upper Spring Creek Project brings important uranium mineralization into the operations of the Company, and we look forward to recovering (capturing) increasing amounts of uranium from late this year into 2026. On behalf of the Board, I want to thank our dedicated team for bringing this project to the point of permit application and issuance. We have the utmost confidence in them completing the new construction in the coming months." enCore has commenced advancement of the Project with drill rigs moving to site to begin development of the production wellfield; enCore previously began staging equipment in anticipation of receiving this approval. Construction activities will include surface preparation, well construction, road construction and installation of support facilities and utilities. The construction of the Satellite IX Plant concrete pad is planned to start in 30 days. enCore now holds two RML's in Texas; one for the Alta Mesa ISR Uranium Project and the amended RML which now includes the Upper Spring Creek's Brown Area, Rosita and Kingsville Project areas. The TCEQ is a part of the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission's ("NRC") Agreement State Program where Texas assumes regulatory authority over certain radioactive materials, including production of uranium. As part of the agreement, regulations adopted by Texas are required to be compatible with NRC regulations. About the Upper Spring Creek ISR Uranium Project The 100% Company-owned Project is a planned Satellite IX Plant operation for the Rosita CPP. The Project consists of several future potential production units within the historic Clay West uranium district. The Project was previously held by Signal Equities LLC, who previously licensed and permitted the property as an ISR uranium project, maintaining the aquifer exemption and ceased work following continued low uranium spot prices. In December 2020, the Company acquired the Project. The uranium mineralized sands that are associated with the project area lie within the Oakville Formation. These historic uranium producing sands stretch across an area of approximately 120 miles long by approximately 20 miles wide in South Texas. The uranium mineralized ore body at the Upper Spring Creek Project occurs at depths typically between 300 and 450 feet from surface. Rosita ISR Uranium Central Processing Plant The Rosita CPP can receive uranium-loaded resin from remote project areas across the South Texas region through a network of Satellite IX Plants. These Satellite IX Plants, located near wellfields, are a key component of the ISR uranium extraction process. A lixiviant, consisting of groundwater mixed with oxygen and sodium bicarbonate, is injected into the wellfield using ISR technology, where it dissolves uranium from the underground sandstone. The uranium-bearing solution is then pumped to the surface and directed through the IX columns at the nearby Satellite IX Plant, where uranium is absorbed onto resin beads. The uranium-loaded resin is then transported to the Rosita CPP, where the uranium is removed from the resin and processed into yellowcake. Once processed, the resin is recycled and trucked back to the Satellite IX Plants for reuse. These modular, efficient, and relocatable IX Plants allow for cost-effective operation across multiple sites without the need to construct full processing facilities at each location, and they can be relocated once a wellfield is depleted. Technical Disclosure and Qualified Person John M. Seeley, Ph.D., P.G., C.P.G., enCore's Chief Geologist, and a Qualified Person under Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) S-K 1300, has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure in this news release on behalf of the Company. About enCore Energy Corp. enCore Energy Corp., America's Clean Energy Company™, is committed to providing clean, reliable, and affordable fuel for nuclear energy as the only United States uranium company with multiple central processing plants in operation. enCore operates the 100% owned and operated Rosita CPP in South Texas and the 70/30 joint venture Alta Mesa CPP with Boss Energy Ltd., with enCore operating as the project manager. The enCore team is led by industry experts with extensive knowledge and experience in all aspects of ISR uranium operations and the nuclear fuel cycle. enCore solely utilizes ISR for uranium extraction, a well-known and proven technology co-developed by the leaders at enCore Energy. Following upon enCore's demonstrated success in South Texas, future projects in enCore's planned project pipeline include the Dewey-Burdock project in South Dakota and the Gas Hills project in Wyoming. The Company holds other assets including non-core assets and proprietary databases. enCore is committed to working with local communities and indigenous governments to create positive impact from corporate developments.
