Let the Market Lead? Only If It Can See the Horizon
04 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The article challenges the WSJ's market-only energy stance, arguing that long-term resilience and sustainability must guide energy policy. It highlights the cost-effectiveness of renewables, the emerging role of EVs in grid stability, and speculative breakthroughs like fusion and UAP propulsion. Drawing from Native American philosophy and the Kardashev Scale, it calls for a seven-generations mindset to build a clean, reliable, and future-ready energy system.The Hydrogen Illusion: Poland's Fuel Cell Locomotive and the Uneven Future of Clean Rail
04 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Poland's hydrogen-powered SM42-6Dn locomotive marks a symbolic step toward clean rail, but hydrogen trains face steep economic and logistical hurdles. Germany's mixed results, including failures in the Taunus region, highlight infrastructure and reliability issues. Battery-electric trains offer higher efficiency and lower costs, while hydrogen remains a niche solution. Poland’s effort is strategic - more rehearsal than revolution - in a broader push for rail decarbonization.2026 Will Be The 'Year Of The Used EV,' Analyst Says. Here's Why
04 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Used EV prices are nearing parity with gas cars, boosting demand despite the end of federal tax credits. Analysts predict 2026 will be the “year of the used EV,” driven by affordability and a surge in lease returns. In August, used EV sales rose 59% year-over-year. Some models, like the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Bolt, are priced under $15,000. State incentives and lower battery costs continue to support the market.NASA Moon Rover Project Pushes Extreme Battery Tech To Its Limits
03 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
GM is adapting its EV battery tech for NASA's Lunar Terrain Vehicle, part of Artemis V. Using durable lithium-ion packs with high-nickel NCMA cathodes, the rover will withstand extreme lunar conditions -temperatures from - 173°C to scorching highs - while operating reliably for 10 years. Four steerable wheels with crab-walk and zero-turn features boost mobility, and fault-tolerant design ensures function even if cells fail, extending U.S. exploration on the Moon.Ford Faces EV Crossroads as Federal Incentives Expire
02 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Ford CEO Jim Farley warns that U.S. EV sales could drop by half following the expiration of the $7,500 federal tax credit, citing high vehicle costs and reduced consumer demand. Ford is shifting focus to hybrids and more affordable EVs, while some dealers see the change as a chance to test market strength without subsidies. The industry faces uncertainty as it adapts to a post-incentive landscape.

A Great Lakes Homecoming: Voltaic Marine Trades Silicon Forest for Michigan's Manufacturing Heartbeat
29 Oct 2025 | 
Voltaic Marine, an electric boat startup from Oregon, is relocating to Michigan after a $3M pre-seed round. Drawn by state grants and Detroit's manufacturing strength, the company will begin commercial production of its AEW24 wakeboat in 2026 with Detroit Manufacturing Systems and Kinetyc. The move reflects a broader trend: clean-tech firms prioritizing scalable infrastructure and policy support over coastal startup hubs.
A Different Kind of Crop Duster
29 Oct 2025 | 
Pyka designs and manufactures autonomous electric aircraft for agricultural and cargo applications. Their Pelican 2 crop sprayer utilizes hot-swappable batteries and advanced sensors for efficient and precise spraying. Having received the first FAA approval for a large autonomous electric aircraft, Pyka has introduced the Pelican Cargo variant and develops its core technology internally.
Tesla's Swedish Standoff: When Silicon Valley Meets Union Solidarity
29 Oct 2025 | 
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.
Energy Literacy and the Limits of Electrification
28 Oct 2025 | 
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.
Charging in Motion: Europe's Electric Roads Are Quietly Rewiring Freight Logistics
28 Oct 2025 | 
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.
