Farm electrification is several different operating problems sharing one electrical platform. Stationary loads, redesignable services and narrow-window seasonal work require different investment sequences.
Ask whether agriculture can electrify and the conversation usually arrives at the same machine within minutes: the tractor. More specifically, the large diesel tractor working hard through planting, harvest or another narrow seasonal window. It is a legitimate engineering challenge, but it is a poor organizing principle for farm electrification. … [continued]

Over years of operating a commercial rider-only service across the U.S. — serving more than half a million paid trips weekly — we have learned that bringing autonomous driving technology to new regions requires building a robust ecosystem of trusted, local partners. As we look toward our commercial expansion in … [continued]
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Trump administration is finalizing two new regulations that will undermine the implementation of federal protections for wildlife under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), the nation’s cornerstone conservation law. One rule rescinds the longstanding blanket 4(d) rule, ending the practice of automatically extending key ESA protections from killing, injury, … [continued]
Washington, DC — Today, the U.S. House Judiciary Committee will markup H.R. 8330, a bill that would shield fossil fuel companies from laws or lawsuits that would hold them accountable for their role in the climate crisis and related disasters. Fossil fuel corporations knew they were causing climate change in … [continued]
WASHINGTON D.C. — The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Coalition for Community Solar Access (CCSA) today announced that the two organizations will combine following approval from each organization’s Boards of Directors. Effective in early October, CCSA will integrate its team, resources, and policy work within SEIA. The two organizations … [continued]
A new T&E study finds expansions across twenty of Europe’s largest airports overshoot the 1.7 °C emissions budget by up to three times Planned expansions at twenty of Europe’s largest airports are incompatible with national climate targets and global warming limits. According to new research by T&E, the planned increases … [continued]
Electric vehicles are far better than they were 5 years ago, let alone 10 or 20 or 30 years ago. They have hundreds of miles of range and are similar in cost to “comparable” gas-powered cars. In fact, if you take total cogst of ownership into account, they are often … [continued]
