Researchers dismantled Tesla and BYD EV batteries and found notable differences. Tesla's battery showed high energy density and modular design, while BYD's blade battery offered superior thermal stability and safety features. The study highlights trade-offs between performance and safety, suggesting that future EV battery innovation will depend on balancing energy output with durability and fire resistance.28 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Chinese EV maker NIO has surpassed 90 million battery swaps, just 100 days after hitting 80 million. With over 100,000 swaps daily and 4.75 billion kWh dispensed, its network now powers the equivalent of 2.37 million households annually. NIO expects to reach 100 million swaps by January 2026. The company also delivered a record 87,071 vehicles in Q3 2025, with cumulative deliveries nearing 873,000.28 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Greenhouse Gases article accurately debunks the myth that CO2's heat-trapping ability is saturated. Greenhouse gases continue to warm the planet because radiation escapes from higher, colder layers as concentrations rise. This reduces energy loss to space and increases surface warming. Satellite and surface data confirm ongoing radiative forcing, and climate models show a logarithmic relationship - each CO? doubling adds similar warming. The science is solid and widely accepted.27 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Born from Rivian's innovation lab, ALSO's TMQ is a quad-like electric cargo hauler designed for fleet use. It features modular storage, autonomous capabilities, and rugged off-road design. Targeting last-mile logistics and utility fleets, the TMQ blends Rivian's adventure DNA with futuristic tech. Its compact form and smart systems aim to redefine urban and remote delivery, offering a glimpse into scalable, electrified fleet mobility.27 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Chinese researchers review the rise of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in the low-altitude economy. They analyze flight performance, propulsion, and design benefits over helicopters, noting major hurdles in battery energy, regulation, and infrastructure. The study highlights China’s strategic drive to develop eVTOLs for urban mobility and regional air transport.

Tesla faces a prolonged labor strike in Sweden over its refusal to sign a collective bargaining agreement. What began with 70 mechanics has grown into a nationwide solidarity movement, challenging Tesla's anti-union stance. The dispute highlights a clash between Silicon Valley individualism and Nordic labor consensus, raising global questions about the future of work, electrification, and corporate accountability.

COP30 will spotlight renewable electricity, but a recent op-ed by Ronald Stein and Yoshihiro Muronaka warns that wind and solar cannot replace the fossil-derived materials essential to modern life. From steel and plastics to EV components, hydrocarbons remain foundational. True climate progress requires energy literacy - understanding what electricity can and cannot do - and a balanced approach to decarbonization rooted in material reality.

France's A10 motorway now features a live inductive charging lane, letting EV trucks gain 1.5–3 km of range while driving. Similar pilots in Germany and Italy use embedded coils, while Sweden's eRoadArlanda powers trucks via overhead or in-road conductive systems. These dynamic charging projects aim to reduce battery size, cut downtime, and enable continuous freight operation - signaling a shift toward electrified logistics corridors across Europe.
