Dhameja, S. (2001). Electric vehicle battery systems. Boston, MA: Newnes.
This article is necessary because it illustrates some of the operational theories and design guidance for technicians dealing with developing efficient electrical vehicle power sources. The sources expand more on the importance of producing more vehicles with zero emissions because their demand is high. I may use this source in researching on the issues that may affect electric vehicle performance such as battery charging and discharging and battery temperature constraints.
Iqbal, H. (2010). Electric and hybrid vehicles: design fundamentals. New York, NY: CRC Press.
This source is important because it comprises of design fundamentals, component sizing, and systems’ interactions of alternative vehicles. Hence, it is vital in technology updates because of the significant information it provides concerning technological advances. I may therefore use it in finding more details in system level perspective of electric and hybrid vehicles.
Masaki, Y., & Brodd, A. (2009). Lithium-ion batteries: science and Technologies. New York, NY: Springer science business media, LLC.
This book is important to technology update report because it is a compilation of the current information that is related to Lithium-ion technology. It offers all-important aspects of lithium battery operations. I may use this source in carrying out the research especially in finding a comprehensive description of the state of art of the lithium system.
Science News. (2007). American Chemical Society (ACS): Toward Improving the Safety of Lithium-ion Batteries. Retrieved from http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/12/071217110106.htm
This article is important to the technology update report because it illustrate the efforts launched by various scientists and manufacturers in order to enhance the safety of the rechargeable power packs that are found in large quantities of consumer electronics’ products. In addition, the article illustrates that it is rare to find fires and explosions involving lithium ion batteries happening anywhere. However, despite the large publications on the incidences, the consumers are still concerned hence being forced to carry out costly recalls of millions of batteries. Therefore, the article is vital since it provides the necessary information that is required to be used by the technology to overcome such issues. I think I may use this article in acquiring information that could help me in understanding clearly the reasons as to why lithium-ion batteries sometimes catch fire or even explode.

According to this article, lithium batteries are a significant opportunity for electric cars if the development of this technology succeeds. This is because in reality, the density of energy of lithium batteries would be high compared to that of petrol and diesel. Therefore, it is important in the technology up-to-date report because it provides the necessary information especially on the advantages of having electric cars. I might use this source especially in finding more about how electric cars will be able to provide similar range as gas cars.
Van, W., & Scrosati, B. (2002). Advances in lithium-ion batteries. New York, NY: Springer.
According to this source, there has been a great improvement in the process of development on almost all areas concerning chemistry and engineering of these systems. Therefore, this book is important to technology up date because it provides information concerning the direction being taken in advances of lithium ion batteries in the future. Thus, I may use the source in researching more on current advances on lithium-ion batteries.
