US Firm Bids To Bring 'Flying Boats' to Scottish Islands Transport Network
21 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
US firm Regent is partnering with Scotland’s Hitrans to explore using electric "flying boats" called Seagliders for island transport. These vessels combine boat, hydrofoil, and low-altitude flight technologies, reaching speeds up to 180 mph. A 12-passenger model may launch in Orkney by 2026–2027, with a larger version planned for 2030. The project aims to improve connectivity and reduce emissions across the Highlands and Islands.The Electric Bus You Thought Was Dead - But Isn't
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Modern trolleybuses using in-motion charging (IMC) are making a comeback as cost-effective, grid-friendly alternatives to battery-electric buses. They charge via overhead wires and run off-wire using small batteries, reducing infrastructure and maintenance costs. Ideal for dense, hilly cities or those with legacy systems, they face funding and public perception challenges but offer strategic advantages in urban transit electrification.European Study Finds E-bikes Carry A Much Greater Crash Risk Than E-scooters
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A new study from Chalmers University, featured in Air Quality News, finds that e-bikes pose a significantly higher crash risk than e-scooters—over eight times greater when accounting for exposure factors like trip distance and duration. The research analyzed GPS data from shared micromobility services across seven European cities, offering a more accurate comparison than previous studies. The authors call for better data-driven safety policies. Electric Aquaculture Boats Splash Into Waters Off the Coast of Rural Maine
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Electric fishing boat Heron launched in rural Maine, powered by twin electric outboards and backed by $1M in grants. Operated by Maine Ocean Farms, it cuts emissions, noise, and fuel costs. The shift supports climate goals amid warming Gulf waters. Challenges include battery weight and limited charging, but local groups are expanding infrastructure. Heron signals a sustainable future for aquaculture and rural marine industries.Wired Wings: Flying the Bristell B23 Energic Electric Aircraft
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
The Bristell B23 Energic, an all-electric trainer aircraft from BRM Aero and H55, offers smooth handling, low operating costs ($8–$9/hr), and a 60-minute flight time under EASA rules. FAA limits U.S. flights to 40 minutes due to stricter reserves, but upgrades are planned. Despite reduced payload from battery weight, performance rivals piston aircraft. Its success signals growing momentum in electric aviation.

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.
