The Dutch Blueprint: Infrastructure Supercharges EV Adoption

01 Sep 2025 | Synopsis

Policymakers banned fossil-fuel vehicle sales by 2030 and are phasing down subsidies. Challenges now include rising charging costs - up 13% overall and 25% in Amsterdam.

Can Food Waste Fuel America's Skies? The Promise And Pitfalls Of Trash-To-JetA

01 Nov 2025 | Scientists are developing ways to turn America's massive food waste stream into sustainable aviation fuel. Using processes like hydrothermal liquefaction, discarded scraps can be converted into biocrude and refined into jet-ready fuel. At full scale, it could replace only a fraction of U.S. daily jet fuel demand, but it would cut landfill methane and diversify supply. Major hurdles remain: costly collection, dispersed feedstock, certification, and economics compared to fossil fuel.

Can Coal Power the AI Boom? Wyoming's Bet on a Fading Fuel

01 Nov 2025 | Wyoming's coal is being promoted as vital for powering the AI boom, but the market reality tells another story. Utilities continue retiring coal plants as cheaper wind, solar, and natural gas dominate. Lease auctions draw little interest, and even China is pairing coal with massive renewable growth. Analysts warn AI demand may be overstated, leaving coal an expensive detour. The conclusion: coal is unlikely to fuel America's AI future.

America's Untapped Power: Why Wave Energy Still Waits For Its Moment

01 Nov 2025 | America's waves hold vast untapped energy - enough to power over half the nation's electricity needs. Yet wave power lags behind solar and wind. Devices must survive corrosive seas and violent storms, while no single design has emerged as dominant. Developers also face years of regulatory hurdles and high costs that deter investors. New test sites like Oregon's PacWave aim to prove the technology, offering hope that wave energy can finally move from promise to reality.
