VAT and installation costs) Pre-orders begin in the United Kingdom, Norway and Germany todayHelps consumers control how and when to use energy in their homes to avoid expensive energy tariff periods Uses Nissan's safe and proven battery technology powering more than 260,000 electric vehicles all over the worldBarcelona – Nissan and power management leader Eaton are broadening their portfolio of xStorage Home residential energy storage solutions by introducing a range of six product configurations, giving consumers greater choice to meet their energy needs. This announcement comes as pre-orders of xStorage Home begin today in the United Kingdom, Norway and Germany with other European markets to follow in the coming months.The xStorage Home system can draw energy from the sun or from the grid, making energy consumption more affordable and encouraging home-owners to make a more sustainable choice. The cutting-edge technology in the xStorage Home system is also fit for the future, and can enable customers to sell energy back to the grid – an opportunity that is expected to be offered by energy companies in the future.The system gives consumers greater control over how and when they use energy in their own homes enabling them to avoid expensive tariff periods. The expanded range will offer consumers greater choice over power capacity and price as well as units. Consumers can opt to purchase units powered by either second life batteries or new batteries.xStorage Home units – which provide a sustainable second life for Nissan's electric vehicle (EV) batteries after their first life in cars is over – will be priced competitively starting at €3,500 (excluding VAT and installation costs) for a power capacity of 3.5kW rising to just €3,900 for 6kW. Units powered by new Nissan batteries will start from €5,000 rising to €5,580 for the highest capacity and will come with an extended warranty period of ten years.Connected to a residential power supply and/or renewable energy sources such as solar panels, the unit has the potential to revolutionise the way people manage energy usage in their own home, providing added flexibility.xStorage Home comes with solar panel inverters already integrated meaning that if a home is equipped with solar panels, the consumer can connect directly to xStorage Home, storing and then powering their homes using clean, renewable energy. It can also save customers money on their utility bills by charging up when renewable energy is available or cheaper, and releasing that stored energy when demand and costs are high.The xStorage Home unit also has the capability to provide energy back to the grid in countries where the conditions enable customers to do so. This provides another potential revenue stream as customers will be able to sell stored energy back to the grid when demand and costs are high.The system also provides the ultimate back-up energy solution to consumers, ideal at a time when energy grids are coming under significant strain. With smartphone connectivity, it allows consumers to switch between energy sources at the touch of a button.Paul Willcox, Chairman, Nissan Europe said: "Energy pricing and availability have long been concerns for all of us, and with this product, consumers will finally be able to take control of how and when they use energy in their homes."We have already seen overwhelming interest for this product, so we're excited to be able to offer consumers even greater choice with our wider portfolio of xStorage products. With the launch of xStorage Home, we're fast approaching a consumer energy revolution."xStorage Home will deliver real world benefits for smarter, more affordable and more sustainable energy management."This move towards the use of alternative energy sources is in line with consumer demand across Europe. Nissan's Social Index report found that environmental issues are one of European consumers' greatest concerns for the future. An overwhelming majority of those surveyed (91 percent) were excited to see more alternative energy sources developed in the future and 89 percent wanted to see recycled materials used in more innovative ways.Frank Campbell, President, Eaton Electrical and Corporate EMEA said: "European consumers are increasingly demanding alternative energy management solutions. Working in partnership with Nissan, we have developed a range of affordable, ready to use home energy storage solutions, giving consumers a choice of six options. While other home energy storage products are available on the market, we aim to avoid hidden extra costs and achieve the lowest possible total cost of ownership."The new xStorage Home portfolio marks the start of a longer-term commitment by Nissan and Eaton to bring new products to market for both private and commercial customers. Nissan's commercial offering, xStorage Buildings, is a robust and powerful solution for organisations to manage their energy usage more efficiently and power their business in a more sustainable, smarter way.Today, Nissan and Eaton announced a major partnership with Amsterdam ArenA - home of Ajax Football Club - which will see the integration of xStorage Buildings into the stadium. Representing the largest energy storage system in a commercial application in Europe using second life electric vehicle batteries, the xStorage Buildings system comprises Eaton bidirectional inverters and the equivalent of 280 Nissan LEAF second life battery packs. It will make the energy supply to Amsterdam ArenA more efficient, sustainable and reliable through additional back-up power replacing diesel generators and grid stabilization services.To find out more about Nissan's and Eaton's energy storage product portfolio, please visit: http://www.eaton.eu/energystorageNotes to Editors:About Nissan in Europe Nissan has one of the most comprehensive European presences of any overseas manufacturer, employing more than 17,000 staff across locally-based design, research & development, manufacturing, logistics and sales & marketing operations.

The surprising technology behind the future of autonomous driving

by News Feeder, 18-10-2024, 11:19 PM

As autonomous driving (AD) technology brings new advances and features to mobility, important questions inevitably arise. For example, how will drivers come to trust their autonomous vehicles? How will vehicles communicate with drivers and alert them to the presence of other vehicles on the road? And, what actions will vehicles take after identifying objects, signs and other road infrastructure such as painted lanes?As Nissan's Tetsuya Iijima said in our most recent Medium article on autonomous driving, social acceptance is key to its future. Takashi Sunda, Deputy General Manager of the Autonomous Drive Technology Development Department at Nissan, and his team of engineers have developed answers to these and other questions through their work on technology that enables communication between drivers and cars.In a world of ubiquitous personal devices, we're already interacting with this sort of technology dozens of times a day — you find it on your smartphone touchscreen, on your computer, and even your home coffee machine.It's already a key technology in your car, where it plays a critical role in instrument panels, navigation touchscreens, and parking assistance features.Sunda’s team is working on a wide range of new technologies that focus on how to better communicate and establish trust between drivers and their cars.Adding to the complexity, researchers must also factor in the many differences in gender, age, experience, terrain, culture — and even different countries' rules of the road.“Driving is so different wherever you go. In France, motorcycles frequently cut across highways, while motorists in the U.S. and U.K. drive on opposite sides of the road," he said.“There is much to consider on both an individual level and from a cultural perspective. Driving is very personal and unique." And that's, why it's important to gather as many perspectives as possible, he said.“Understanding and considering differences is the most helpful," Sunda continued. “But it can be difficult to grasp at first, so the question becomes: `How do you make that universal step to build trust?'"Finding the Right BalanceFor Sunda, transparency holds the key.But as AD technology advances, so must the interface between drivers and their cars.Once vehicles begin collecting more information in support of new AD features, the systems will need to be able to recognize and react to a range of situations.What's more, the technology will also need to quickly communicate all information back to the driver in an easy-to-grasp manner.“We want even first-time customers to feel comfortable using AD," he said. “It all must remain simple."Drivers will need to know what information the car is collecting and — importantly — what the vehicle is going to do with that data to ensure a safe and comfortable ride. Consider a scenario in which you are changing lanes and are suddenly approached by another car in an adjacent lane: How will your vehicle convey important information about the approaching car quickly, and what will it do in response?Or, think about a city corner, when a lone pedestrian suddenly steps off the curb and starts walking across the street: What will your car need to tell you? In these situations, you need to inform — but not overwhelm — users.“It's a delicate balance of how much information to control, and how much to share," said Sunda.Clearly, autonomous driving will change the relationship between drivers and their cars, but it's a challenge that Sunda is particularly cut out for.Before joining Nissan 16 years ago, he worked on developing aircraft-human machine interfaces. When working on those airplanes, he had the benefit of trained pilots who could not only operate the aircraft, but who offered opinions on design.For the AD project, Sunda's team members draw on their own driving experiences as well.But he's quick to add that his own personal experience behind the wheel is not necessarily going to reflect another driver's experience. In the end, the big prize for Sunda's team is a chance to reinvent the future of driving. Sunda said as more autonomous features are available, it will have a revolutionary impact on the way people interact with their cars.“The change has already begun," he said. “We are altering the relationship between drivers and their cars — and the experience of driving as a whole."For more stories, please visit our page on Medium.com, https://medium.com/drive-publication###
