How FAA's eVTOL Pilot Could Transform U.S. Air Travel
14 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
The FAA launched the eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP), a 3-year initiative inviting governments and private partners to test electric air taxis and other advanced air mobility (AAM) aircraft. The goal is to gather data to shape future regulations and demonstrate real-world use cases like cargo and medical transport. Companies like Joby, Archer, Beta, and Wisk plan to participate, aiming to revolutionize U.S. air travel.Arc Announces $160M Deal With Curtin Maritime For Eight Hybrid-Electric Tugboats

Arc signed a $160M deal with Curtin Maritime to deliver eight hybrid-electric tugboats, marking the largest commercial deployment of electric workboats. Built with Snow & Co, the tugs feature Arc's 4,000+ HP electric powertrains and 6 MWh battery buffers. The first four are due by 2027. The project aims to modernize U.S. ports with efficient, low-maintenance, cost-effective vessels, challenging diesel norms and advancing marine electrification.ComEd Begins Testing Phase of First of Its Kind Vehicle-to-Grid Charging Pilot with Local School Districts
14 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
ComEd launched testing for its first vehicle-to-grid (V2G) charging pilot with three Illinois school districts. The initiative uses bidirectional chargers on electric school buses to explore energy optimization, grid support, and cost savings during peak demand. Part of ComEd's Beneficial Electrification Plan, the pilot aims to scale V2G tech and includes partners like Nuvve and Resource Innovations.The Illusion of Clean: How Big Oil Perfected the Art of Greenwashing
13 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Big Oil's decades-long greenwashing campaign used PR to mask environmental harm. Chevron's "People Do" ads, Exxon's climate denial lobbying, and BP's carbon footprint push shifted blame to consumers. Investors like BlackRock and execs like Rex Tillerson profited, while conservative politicians traded support for donations. Lawsuits from cities and youth groups now challenge fossil fuel deception, aiming to hold companies accountable in court.This Giant Black Box is the EV Charger of the Future

Can 24M's Battery Deliver 1,000 Miles?
14 Oct 2025 | 
24M Technologies claims its SemiSolid battery design could enable 1,000-mile EV range. The architecture promises higher energy density, lower costs, and improved safety, but remains in development. Real-world deployment depends on materials, manufacturing scalability, and market demand. If successful, it could redefine electric mobility.
The Twilight of Strongmen: Who Falls First - Xi, Putin, or Trump?
14 Oct 2025 | 
Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, and Donald Trump each face rising strain despite their dominance. Xi’s grip on China remains firm but brittle, dependent on personal control and secrecy. Putin's regime, weakened by war and elite fatigue, is most likely to collapse first. Trump's fate rests with U.S. institutions and elections. Among the three, Putin risks falling first, Trump next, while Xi remains the most insulated - for now.
California's Q3 ZEV Surge: The EV Endgame?
13 Oct 2025 | 
California broke its ZEV sales record in Q3 2025, hitting 124,755 units and 29.1% market share. The surge was fueled by expiring federal incentives, but sustained by state infrastructure, rebates, and growing model diversity. Tesla's dominance is waning as non-Tesla brands gain ground. With 200,000+ public chargers and a 35% ZEV target by 2026, California's EV market shows lasting momentum and offers a blueprint for national adoption.
The Real Cost of Clinging to Fossil Fuels
13 Oct 2025 | 
The Las Vegas Review-Journal editorial warns of rising costs from clean energy, but critics argue renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Infrastructure upgrades and legacy fuel contracts - not solar or wind - drive higher bills. Fossil fuels carry hidden costs like pollution and health impacts. Clean energy investments are transitional and necessary. The real challenge is managing the shift, not avoiding it. Clinging to fossil fuels is costlier long-term.
