A week ago, I wrote an article about a guy in the UK with two high-mileage Tesla Model S sedans that are still using their original batteries. One has about 430,000 miles on its battery and the other has around 375,000 miles, also on one battery. They are both still … [continued]
Now available in utilities’ everyday simulation tools, new models will help simulate how grid-forming inverters will enhance power grid stability Integrating renewable energy into the nation’s power grid isn’t as simple as plugging in a wind or solar power plant or energy storage facility—these resources produce direct current, while the … [continued]
A few recent trends got me thinking that we might be seeing a “last gasp” for oil lovers and apologists as they try to cling onto their oil-related wealth and cultural inertia. I’ll give the most credit to a comment from a reader, Tom Storey, under a recent article of … [continued]
It took me 4 years to get a score victory in Civilization VI (Civ VI). I noticed the extensive climate features in Civilization VI while playing. Civilization VII is poised to come out next year. This led me to wonder what new climate features Civilization VII will add that Civilization … [continued]
It’s no secret that many of us here at CleanTechnica are deeply concerned about the potential reelection of Donald Trump. Just from a clean technology perspective, his hostility towards everything from solar panels to supposedly carcinogenic wind turbines to electric vehicles is no secret. For those of us who want … [continued]
Recently, I was watching some videos about Equinox EV charging performance and wondered whether it would make a good replacement for my Bolt EUV. Not only could I get more range, but faster charging of 100–150 kW instead of only 55 kW. Considering that I like to do stupid things … [continued]
Much has been said in recent months about supposedly slumping EV sales growth. As we’ve pointed out on a number of occasions now, EV sales are actually soaring at many automakers in the USA, including at Ford, GM, Rivian, Audi, BMW, and several others. However, it seems there’s a brewing … [continued]
Japan Post is not a newcomer to the notion of using electric vehicles (EVs) to save money as well as the environment. Mitsubishi supplied the Japan Post with electric vehicles (EVs) roughly 11 years ago — 5,000 Minicab-MiEVs, the Minicab EV’s precursor. Now, a fresh Mitsubishi Motors order has been … [continued]
To avoid the worst impacts of climate change we need to switch from gasoline and diesel to electric vehicles powered by clean electricity as soon as possible. While driving an electric vehicle (EV) can save drivers on fuel and maintenance, the upfront cost of electric cars and trucks can be … [continued]
NREL Researchers Identify Promising Locations off US Coastlines for Installation of Technology Using electricity generated by offshore wind turbines as one pathway to split water to produce clean hydrogen may make economic sense, particularly along the U.S. Atlantic Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico, according to researchers at the … [continued]
