A Power Outage Means You Can't Charge Your EV: What Do You Do?
20 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
If your power goes out, your home EV charging stops - but so do gasoline pumps, so you’re not at a unique disadvantage. Most outages are short: the average US user experienced under six hours of interruption in 2023. To prepare, keep your EV topped up (rather than waiting until very low), know public DC and Level-2 charging stations within about 25–50 miles, and if you have a generator, wiring for at least a trickle charge helps.
Stop Babying Your EV: Hard Acceleration Actually Extends Battery Life by 195K Miles
20 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
A study by Geotab found that electric vehicles (EVs) driven with frequent hard acceleration had battery lifespans extended by up to 195,000 miles. Contrary to common belief, gentle driving may not always benefit EV batteries. The research suggests that consistent, vigorous use helps maintain battery health by keeping cells active and balanced, challenging assumptions about EV driving habits.Bridging The Red-Blue Divide On Climate
18 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The commentary by Ken Silverstein argues that bridging the red-blue divide on climate requires listening, finding shared values, and focusing on practical solutions rather than ideology. He highlights how conservative voices like Heather Reams align clean energy with economic growth, innovation and energy independence.
Polls show strong public support for renewables across political lines.
E-quipment highlight: Tilmor Super E electric cultivating tractor
18 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The Tilmor Super E is a purpose-built electric cultivating tractor made in the USA. It offers quiet, zero-emission operation and a clear view of the work being done. The tractor features a 48V electric system with an expandable battery platform for up to eight hours of runtime. Designed for precision weeding and cultivating, the Super E aims to provide a better farming experience with reduced maintenance and operational costs.Letting EVs Take A Load Off The Grid Could Result In 'Negative Emissions' While Saving Drivers Money
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
A Lawrence Berkeley National Lab study finds EVs can reduce grid strain and emissions by charging during low-demand periods and discharging during peak times. This vehicle-to-grid (V2G) strategy could lead to net-negative emissions and save drivers money. Researchers highlight EVs' potential as mobile energy storage, supporting renewables and cutting fossil fuel reliance - all while benefiting both the grid and consumers.

Turning the Energy Crunch into a Smart Grid Revolution
24 Oct 2025 | 
America's energy crunch is not about supply - it's about coordination. Virtual power plants and vehicle-to-grid systems offer a scalable, software-driven solution to rising demand from AI, EVs, and climate volatility. By turning homes, vehicles, and businesses into active grid assets, and aligning policy with technology, the U.S. can build a smarter, more resilient energy future without building more power plants. The tools exist - now it's time to connect them.
Auto Retail in 2025: Bridging the Trust Gap Between Dealers and Buyers
24 Oct 2025 | 
The 2025 Urban Science and Harris Poll report reveals a growing disconnect between dealers and buyers. While dealers embrace EVs, AI, and digital tools, many buyers remain cautious - especially about full electrification and online-only retail. Brand loyalty is weakening, and policy clarity is key to adoption. The future of auto retail depends on bridging trust, flexibility, and infrastructure gaps.
Electric Icons in the Making: Audi Concept C vs. Chevrolet Corvette EV
23 Oct 2025 | 
Audi's Concept C previews a refined electric GT built on the mature PPE platform, likely arriving by 2026. Chevrolet's Corvette EV promises supercar performance but faces packaging and thermal challenges. Audi is closer to production; Corvette remains in early development. Both reflect divergent strategies in electrifying legacy sports cars, with Audi emphasizing platform maturity and Chevrolet pursuing brand continuity through engineering innovation.
Electrification Is Not an Oversimplification
23 Oct 2025 | 
Despite critiques that the quest for global electrification is "simplistic", the transition is strategic and necessary. Grid upgrades, battery innovation, and tailored policies make electrification viable. Sodium-ion batteries and recycling reduce material risk. Compared to fossil fuels, electrification offers cleaner, safer, and more resilient systems. Complexity demands better design - not delay.
What Is the Real Cost to Replace EV Tires?
23 Oct 2025 | 
A recent BGR article overstates EV tire costs and ignores fuel savings, regenerative braking, and tire tech advances. Most EV drivers spend ~$2,100–$2,700 on tires over 100,000 miles - not $3,600. EVs save thousands in fuel and benefit from smoother wear profiles. Brands like Goodyear and Michelin now offer EV-specific tires with longer life and better efficiency. The article lacks context and deserves correction.
