Electric vehicles are sweeping our cities, and an overwhelming number of individuals are choosing to commute in electric vehicles. Electric mobility is unquestionably the way of the future, given the environmental advantages offered by these vehicles and the commitment of both manufacturers and drivers.

Rachid Yazami, a Moroccan innovator, revealed a few weeks ago:

^{We broke a new world record a few weeks ago by charging an electric car battery in just 10 minutes. I hope that morocco will succeed in developing and marketing ultra-rapid chargers.}

Statement by Rachid El Yazami

Dr. Rachid Yazami, the inventor of one of the most important components of lithium-ion batteries, is working on a method to charge an electric vehicle in less than 10 minutes.

Given the recent technological advancements, electric vehicles still face obstacles in becoming the preferred mode of transportation and replacing combustion engine vehicles. One of the most significant concerns is slow battery charging, however, it appears that this impediment is coming to an end.

Dr. Rachid Yazami, the inventor of the graphite anode, a critical lithium-ion battery component, is working on a method that will allow the electric car to be charged in as little as 10 minutes. A breakthrough in these aspects will be a watershed moment in electric transportation, virtually equating the time spent charging the vehicle’s battery to just the time spent replenishing traditional fuel.

According to The Register, Dr. Rachid Yazami is working on a new quick charging system for electric automobiles that beats any other technology now available. Your technology, according to current testing, can charge a high-density battery in under 10 minutes, which itself is seven times faster than Tesla.

To attain this goal, Dr. Rachid Yazami uses a different loading method than the usual one. Instead of utilizing constant current, they utilize non-linear voltammetry, which adjusts voltage instead of current.

Voltage, according to the expert, should be seen as a sequence of steps on a ladder. Every one of those rungs’ voltage must remain constant until the conditions are met and that the next rung can be advanced. During the charging process, this charging mechanism gives the batteries a break, helping them to last longer.

“Fast-charging technology improves battery life by decreasing stress”, according to Dr. Rachid Yazami. “We can preserve the battery for 10 years instead of five because we charge it in such a way that it is not subjected to high temperatures or current stress. The optimal charging situation for the battery would be 10 minutes of charging time for an 800 km range.
