I saw an odd comment on Reddit about my article on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) report on Tesla’s Autopilot System. Someone shared the article on Reddit and u/norman_rogerson mentioned that the link to the full report was broken. Very, very odd. I looked over that report … [continued]
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) just released a report titled Safety Implications of Variability in Autonomous Driving Assist Alerting. There is something odd about one of the authors that many in the Tesla community are trying to understand. This author serves as the Independent Director of Veoneer, … [continued]
Texas-based ERCOT joins Colorado-based NREL in a global consortium that will lift the electric vehicle sector on a tide of renewable energy.
Google will give you $1 million to win the Little Box Challenge. All you have to do is figure out what an inverter is and then shrink it down to the size of an iPad.
According to the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), all new electricity generation capacity in Australia will be from renewable energy. It will mostly be from wind energy, while 13% of that is expected to be from large-scale solar PV, and 3% from biomass. After years of hearing very little about … [continued]
We interrupt our all-Tesla-all-the-time programming for this special announcement: Genovation Cars, a company that all but dropped off the radar a couple of years ago, is partnering in a new hybrid EV battery research project that combines a high density battery pack with an ultracapacitor pack and a DC/DC converter … [continued]
Originally published on Planetsave.com. The Union of Concerned Scientists’ Clean Vehicles program recently released an updated version of its rather comprehensive “backgrounder” on electric vehicles — “how much the technology is growing in the country, the opportunities it presents for consumers and automakers, and the challenges facing its adoption,” to … [continued]
By Richard Swanson, IEEE Fellow; Co-founder and President Retired of SunPower Corporation In 1973, I was a young man just out of graduate school. That was the year of the oil crisis. I remember standing in the gas lines along with everyone else wondering, how in the world did we … [continued]
Panasonic has received the Corporate Innovation Award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for developing and commercializing high performance heterojunction solar technology (HIT). Panasonic began working on developing solar cells in the early 1980s, and by 1987 were successful in mass producing HIT solar cells that … [continued]
From recent news reporting a global investment in renewable energy of more than $257 billion, to headlines highlighting green changes implemented by companies across the globe, this past year was a notable era of progress in enhancing the environment’s sustainability. However, as most of us know, there is still much that can be done to further improve environmental health. Focusing … [continued]
