Breakthrough Battery Tech Promises 1,000-Mile EV Range and 190-Mile Charge in Under Four Minutes
24M Technologies, a US-based battery firm, says it has developed a next-generation electrolyte that could dramatically improve the range and charging speed of electric vehicles (EVs), while performing reliably even in extreme temperatures.
24M Technologies has unveiled 'Eternalyte,' an advanced electrolyte it claims delivers a step change in ionic conductivity — the key factor in how quickly a battery charges and discharges.
The company says the breakthrough could power future lithium metal batteries capable of over 1,000 miles of driving range and add 190 miles of charge in under four minutes.
Unlike some cutting-edge battery technologies that require overhauls to charging infrastructure, 24M claims its solution does not rely on high-cost MegaWatt charging stations.
Instead, Eternalyte enables ultra-fast charging using today's setups.

The electrolyte also promises to solve one of the most persistent EV concerns: performance in extreme cold.
According to test data shared by 24M, the battery tech retains full capacity at 0°C and more than 80% at -40°C, addressing winter-related range drops that plague many current EVs.
Eternalyte is compatible with a range of battery chemistries — including lithium metal, silicon and graphite-based cells — and can be integrated into existing manufacturing processes, reducing adoption costs for producers and automakers.
24M Technologies, which has largely operated under the radar, is now positioning itself at the forefront of next-gen EV development — offering a potential breakthrough without demanding widespread infrastructure changes.
Though the company has not revealed full technical details of Eternalyte, it claims the solution is designed not just for today's EVs but for the battery demands of the next decade.

WB, IMF climate snub 'worrying': COP29 presidency
Participating world leaders and delegates pose for a family photo during the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku. Photo: AFP The hosts of the most recent UN climate talks are worried international lenders are retreating from their commitments to help boost funding for developing countries' response to global warming. This anxiety has grown as the Trump administration has slashed foreign aid and discouraged US-based development lenders like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund from focussing on climate finance. Developing nations, excluding China, will need an estimated $1.3 trillion a year by 2035 in financial assistance to transition to renewable energy and climate-proof their economies from increasing weather extremes. But nowhere near this amount has been committed. At last year's UN COP29 summit in Azerbaijan, rich nations agreed to increase climate finance to $300 billion a year by 2035, an amount decried as woefully inadequate. Azerbaijan and Brazil, which is hosting this year's COP30 conference, have launched an initiative to plug the shortfall that includes expectations of "significant" contributions from international lenders. But so far only two — the African Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank — have responded to a call to engage the initiative with ideas, said COP29 president Mukhtar Babayev. "We call on their shareholders to urgently help us to address these concerns," he told climate negotiators at a high-level summit in the German city of Bonn this week. "We fear that a complex and volatile global environment is distracting" many of those expected to play a big role in bridging the climate finance gap, he added. His team travelled to Washington in April for the IMF and World Bank's spring meetings hoping to find the same enthusiasm for climate lending they had encountered a year earlier. But instead they found institutions "very much reluctant now to talk about climate at all", said Azerbaijan's top climate negotiator Yalchin Rafiyev. This was a "worrisome trend", he said, given expectations these lenders would extend the finance needed in the absence of other sources. "They're very much needed," he said. The United States, the World Bank's biggest shareholder, has sent a different message. On the sidelines of the April spring meetings, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged the bank to focus on "dependable technologies" rather than "distortionary climate finance targets." This could mean investing in gas and other fossil fuel-based energy production, he said. Under the Paris Agreement, wealthy developed countries — those most responsible for global warming to date — are obligated to pay climate finance to poorer nations. AFP

ME situation: Rubio telephones PM
ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday expressed Pakistan's readiness to play a constructive role in international peace efforts amid growing concerns over the Iran-Israel crisis, during a telephone call initiated by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. According to a statement issued by the Prime Minister's Office, Secretary Rubio rang up Prime Minister Sharif to discuss the rapidly evolving situation in the Middle East, particularly the Iran-Israel crisis. Sharif described the crisis as 'deeply worrying, not only for the region, but for the entire world,' and called for a peaceful resolution through dialogue and diplomacy. Rubio acknowledged Pakistan's strong relations with Iran and encouraged Islamabad to continue playing a constructive role in the ongoing peace efforts with Tehran. He reaffirmed Washington's commitment to working closely with Pakistan to promote both regional and global stability. During a warm and cordial conversation, Prime Minister Sharif conveyed his best wishes to US President Donald Trump and praised his bold leadership. He also lauded Secretary Rubio's proactive diplomacy, particularly his role in helping Pakistan and India reach a ceasefire understanding, which PM Sharif said averted a major confrontation between the two nuclear-armed states. Sharif welcomed President Trump's recent positive statements about Pakistan, calling them most encouraging' for lasting peace in South Asia. He reiterated Islamabad's readiness to engage in meaningful dialogue with India on all outstanding issues, including the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, the Indus Waters Treaty, trade, and counter-terrorism. On security matters, PM Sharif reaffirmed Pakistan's resolve to eliminate terrorism across the country, citing threats from terrorist groups such as the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA), Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and other militant outfits. In response, Rubio appreciated Pakistan's counter-terrorism efforts and assured continued US cooperation to address shared security concerns. Sharif also noted with satisfaction the recent meeting in Washington between President Trump and Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Asim Munir, describing it as cordial and productive. On economic ties, Sharif emphasised the need to deepen cooperation in trade, investment, energy, mining, rare earth metals, and information technology. He highlighted the potential for mutually beneficial partnerships, in line with President Trump's focus on expanding global trade. Both sides agreed that ongoing dialogue must translate into tangible outcomes across all sectors. Prime Minister Sharif called for more frequent high-level engagements and reiterated his invitation to President Trump for an official visit to Pakistan. He also invited Secretary Rubio to visit Pakistan at his earliest convenience, expressing hope for a visit in the near future. Rubio thanked the prime minister for taking his call and expressed a strong desire to strengthen US-Pakistan cooperation across all areas of mutual interest. He further appreciated Pakistan's efforts to uphold the ceasefire with India and encouraged its continued engagement in peace efforts related to Iran. Copyright Business Recorder, 2025
