General Motors and Samsung SDI will announce this week the construction of new US battery factory, probably in Michigan.
The Electric Utility is “Enhancing” a Successful Managed Charging Program By Excluding its Primary Advocates Like many major cities, New York City has set forth aggressive goals for encouraging EV adoption in order to improve air quality and mitigate the widescale damage of climate change. New York City’s Previous Commissioner of the Department of Transportation, […]
I am a huge EV and Tesla fanboy. I know that in principal EVs are much less complex than cars with internal combustion engines. An internal combustion engine (ICE) replacement cost is ~$7000. It is much more complex than an electric motor. In addition, ICE cars have very complex transmissions (replacement cost ~$5000). You also […]
A successful solar installation is expected to produce at a certain level for at least 25 years and last for much longer. With that in mind, choosing the right equipment is crucial to maximizing your energy cost savings and emissions reduction. Here’s what to keep in mind when considering solar panels and inverters.
Recycling solar panels will become more important as older panels reach the end of their useful life.

In recent months, Model Y owner C Woody has decked his vehicle out in preparations for […]
Researchers show that inherent lithium ions in bioderived borate polymer enhance “extreme fast charging” capability in graphite anodes Ishikawa, Japan — Current society is transitioning en masse from fossil fuels to renewable resources and electric batteries. Despite the urgency to switch to greener methods, core challenges related to efficiency and sustainability pose a hurdle to […]
Needing a break from the hustle and bustle of the big city, we headed for the high country of Ravensbourne National Park for a short break. Rob and Annette had graciously invited us to stay at their “Escape.” We charged up overnight to 100% (335 km in our 2019 Model 3 SR) and packed up […]
