Enova to Provide Minimum of 1K Power Control Units to Think Global in 2008
19 February 2008
Enova Systems has received a contract to provide a minimum of 1,000 Power Control Units (PCUs) to Think Global in 2008 for use in the Think City EV. Future production ambitions for the Think City are expected at a minimum of 10,000 units in 2009.
Enova’s PCU converts and regulates high voltage power to lower voltages where and as required. Enova’s module transfers power throughout the drive system and assists in energy recovery during regenerative braking, extending the overall range of the vehicle.
Think Global has selected EnerDel as the supplier of choice for prismatic large format Li-ion batteries for the car. (Earlier post.) The driving range of the new Think City is expected to be 180 km (112 miles), with a top speed of 100 kph (62 mph) and a 0-50 kph acceleration of seven seconds.
