Ashland Promotes William Whitaker To Vice President And Treasurer
The modules are connected to both sides of a symmetrical and structural I-beam. The I-beam includes channels, through which cooling fluid is pumped, to extract heat away from the battery modules. The I-beams also provide cross-vehicle structural support and help protect the pack from side intrusions. “The heart of every EV is the battery, so it was crucial for us to develop our own battery pack in-house,” said CEO Robert Bollinger. “Our engineering team has created a pack with high-strength structural properties, exemplary cooling features and state-of-the-art software.” AdvertisementClick Here to Read MoreAdvertisementAshland has named William Whitaker to vice president and treasurer of the company, effective Jan. 1, 2019. Whitaker succeeds Eric Boni, who was named vice president of finance for Ashland.As treasurer, Whitaker will have responsibility for global treasury operations, cash management, financial risk management and debt and capital markets. He will report to J. Kevin Willis, Ashland senior vice president and CFO.A native of Ostrander, Ohio, Whitaker joined Ashland in 2015 and has held several positions of increasing responsibility in corporate development and treasury. He most recently served as assistant treasurer. Prior to joining Ashland, Whitaker held various roles within private equity and transaction advisory services. He earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, and is a CFA Charterholder.,Bollinger Motors has filed a patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for its battery pack design. The scope of the patent includes mechanical, electrical and systems-engineering innovations. AdvertisementClick Here to Read MoreAdvertisement The Battery Management System (BMS) has also been developed in-house. The BMS has been created to handle any number of strings, therefore one BMS can be manufactured for all future battery-pack sizes and voltages. The BMS monitors voltage, current, and temperature at multiple points within the pack and manages the system accordingly. It works with other vehicle-control units to maintain optimum operating conditions that increase efficiency and extend battery life. The BMS also provides several features which ensure system safety, including detecting and isolating faults to enable continued vehicle operation.Advertisement Bollinger Motors filed the provisional patent application on Oct. 12. The patent application number is 17/068,260.
The Bollinger Motors battery pack is composed of modules in 35 kWh strings that can be connected in series or parallel to form a variety of pack sizes and configurations. Pack sizes will include 35, 70, 105, 140, 175 kWh, and higher, with many sizes capable of both 350V and 700V configurations. Designed for safety, high energy density, and high continuous power capacity, the Bollinger Motors battery pack will be suitable for heavier applications such as medium-duty trucks, agricultural and construction equipment. Bollinger Motors will manufacture battery packs for its own vehicles – as well as make them commercially available for standalone applications – starting in 2021.

The latest additions to the PEMA fleet are three-axle semi low-loaders for the transport of access platforms and construction equipment. The equipment comes with hydraulic folding ramps. The trailer’s low angle and galvanised, serrated steel grid makes it safer and easier to unload and load the machinery, says PEMA Truck & Trailer. According to PEMA, this acquisition brings the number of Nooteboom semi-trailers purchased by the company over the last few years to more than 100. The trailers are mainly three-axle and four-axle extendable Teletrailers and semi low-loaders. Some of the units supplied come with self-steering axles, while others have hydraulic power steering. www.nooteboom.comwww.pematruck-trailer.de
The transformers weighed 100 tons (90.7 tonnes) each and were transported from three separate locations: Etay, Wadi El Natrun and Asyut.For the road transport, EGL utilised Mercedes trucks and Goldhofer modular trailers. Once at the site, EGL jacked and skidded the transformers into position using equipment from Enerpac.In addition to the transformers, EGL was responsible for the delivery of more than 500 containers from the port of Alexandria, located 1,100 km from the project site.The project was completed on behalf of the Egyptian Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy.www.eglegypt.com
Penguins being released into the ocean at the annual Simons Town Penguin festival. Picture: Nigel Riley The African penguin colony in Simon’s Town earns R311 million annually, most of it spend from overseas visitors, according to a City of Cape Town study.It notes the plucky little seabirds are very popular with the overseas visitors who make up 88% and the rest is split between domestic tourists and residents of Cape Town.The penguins could potentially bring in R6.87 billion over the next 30 years, of which R2.27 billion would be invested in the Simon’s Town area, the study says.This figure assumes a conservative visitor growth of 2% annually. The City says it did the study of the penguins’ economic value to take stock of its environmental assets so as to find ways to better protect them and use them sustainably.According to the study, the penguins provide 885 jobs in all parts of Cape Town. A survey of actual jobs in Simon’s Town nearest the colony, showed 80 permanent and 35 seasonal direct jobs are associated with the penguins. The first breeding pair of penguins arrived at Boulders, Simon’s Town, in 1983 and the colony grew rapidly reaching 1 000 nesting pairs by 2001. Today, 854 pairs are found in the area. The study found the penguin colony adds to Simon’s Town property values and has high heritage and socio-cultural value too, combining an endangered species in a picturesque setting, with high visitor numbers. Transport expenditure associated with the colony is R37 million a year for international and domestic tourists. And tourists spend on other items including entry fees, food, curios, guides, local transport, entertainment and accommodation. Money spent on items that can be ascribed to the colony amounts to R255 million a year within the whole of Cape Town, R90 million of which accrues to Simon’s Town. Capetonians’ colony-associated spending is roughly R19 million a year. The study found the investment in and management of the penguin colony by SANParks and the City of Cape Town, in partnership with the SA Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds (SANCOBB), residents and tourism stakeholders has allowed for the creation of a world-class conservation and tourist destination. But ongoing management and improvement are needed if the benefits associated with the colony are to be sustained and increased. According to City of Cape Town’s Landscape Master Plan for the area, and with SANParks projections, combined investments of R22 million are needed to meet the area’s medium-term investment requirements. Simon’s Town Municipality managed the area until SANParks took over in 1998 when the site became part of the Table Mountain National Park. Over the years, significant additions and upgrades of facilities and amenities were undertaken and SANParks staff numbers increased to 20 permanent employees. Visitor numbers to the SANParks Boulders section of the penguin colony have grown from about 580 000 in 2006 to 930 000 in 2017.
Trial for suspected Islamist terrorists underway in Mozambique Cabo Delgado region, Mozambique Photo – File Cabo Delgado region, Mozambique Photo – FileSuspected jihadists have killed seven men and abducted four women in northern Mozambique in the latest violence to hit the Cabo Delgado region, local sources said Friday.The bodies, which were cut into pieces, were left in Piqueue village, a local traditional leader told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.“People were surprised while sleeping in the forest,” he said, indicating that the residents had fled the village for fear of being attacked.The attackers also kidnapped four women, he said.Mozambican police declined to comment, but a local army commander confirmed the attack.“We urge people to stay in villages where they have protection from the police and the military,” he said.Since October 2017, nearly 200 civilians, troops and police have died in a wave of violence in Cabo Delgado, a gas-rich northern region which borders Tanzania, with President Filipe Nyusi sending in troops to “neutralise” the Islamist threat.Related Suspected Ugandan rebels kill six in DRC

If I’m right, then MLB’s playoff games are actually regualr season games, and not part of the postseason, which is odd. Members I apologize for any decorum Share this post I’m wondering where LaSorda meets up with the Cleveland Indians fans and a guy is wearing a Cincinnati Reds cap. Aren’t they in-state rivals? Is that a mess up?The “in-state rivals” is a common misnomer. In football Cleveland and Cinci are certainly…or were… certainly rivals, but not so much in baseball. I am a third generation Indians fan (pops from the West side) and I have no ill-will towards the Reds. Cleveland and Cincinnati are a long ways away. Since I grew up in NW Ohio I have more disdain for the Tigers than the Reds… although I am rooting for the Tigers right now. It’s not like Cubs-White Sox at all. I remember attending a game at Comisky Park during the Tribe’s good years in the 90s and the Indians were beating up on the White Sox. I was in my Tribe gear and an angry just kept cheering when the scoreboard would update the Reds score as they were winning trying to make me feel bad or something. . . . Which was ironic because the guy I was with was cheering for the Indians but was more so a Reds fan.
