WattEV’s San Bernardino, CA charging depot reached a new record: ~700,000 kWh/month delivered, enough for 34,000 miles/day of EV trucking. They currently have 12 dual-cord 360 kW chargers (supporting 24 trucks) and plan to add 36 more cords (including 6 MCS 1.2 MW chargers) to meet rising demand. Their aim is 100 depots by 2035 and 12,000 Class 8 trucks in CA by 2030.07 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Ford's electric Bronco, built by JMC, is China-only for now. Though it looks like the U.S. version, it packs dual motors (445 hp), a 105.4 kWh BYD Blade battery, and 404-mile CLTC range. Tech includes ADAS with LiDAR and a camping package. Preorder costs ¥1,000 (~$140 USD). The Bronco EV is slightly bigger than the standard 4-door model sold in the US. No U.S. release confirmed yet. 06 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The Lotus Emeya, a sleek electric hyper-GT, blends luxury, speed, and innovation - offering up to 900hp and 0-62mph in 2.8 seconds. Backed by Geely's investment and global EV expertise, it marks Lotus's bold shift from niche sports cars to high-performance electric luxury. With sharp handling, refined design, and cutting-edge tech, the author sees the Emeya as proof that the future of EVs is exciting, not worrying.06 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Norway plans to electrify all domestic flights under 1.5 hours by 2040, backed by airport operator Avinor and strong green policies. A key milestone was the Beta Alia CX300's 55-minute, 220-mile test flight from Stavanger to Bergen, proving electric aircraft can meet regional travel needs. With short routes and sustainability goals, Norway is investing in infrastructure and testing to lead the shift to zero-emission aviation.06 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Electrify America's Plug&Charge is now available on the new Nissan LEAF, allowing drivers to simply plug in and charge without phone apps or RFID cards. It uses encrypted vehicle data for secure, automatic payment and also works with EVs like the Mustang Mach-E, Taycan, Lucid Air, and ID.4. It is currently available on 5,000 chargers across more than 1000 Electrify America and Electrify Canada locations across North America.

The EMEA Automotive Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 will confront the gap between ambition and execution. Automakers must scale low‑carbon technologies, decarbonize sprawling supply chains, and secure renewable energy for factories and charging networks. Executives will push for clear policy, carbon pricing, and stable investment signals. Circular economy practices and global competition add urgency. The challenge: make carbon neutrality practical, profitable, and fast enough to meet climate goals.

Scientists are developing ways to turn America's massive food waste stream into sustainable aviation fuel. Using processes like hydrothermal liquefaction, discarded scraps can be converted into biocrude and refined into jet-ready fuel. At full scale, it could replace only a fraction of U.S. daily jet fuel demand, but it would cut landfill methane and diversify supply. Major hurdles remain: costly collection, dispersed feedstock, certification, and economics compared to fossil fuel.

Wyoming's coal is being promoted as vital for powering the AI boom, but the market reality tells another story. Utilities continue retiring coal plants as cheaper wind, solar, and natural gas dominate. Lease auctions draw little interest, and even China is pairing coal with massive renewable growth. Analysts warn AI demand may be overstated, leaving coal an expensive detour. The conclusion: coal is unlikely to fuel America's AI future.

America's waves hold vast untapped energy - enough to power over half the nation's electricity needs. Yet wave power lags behind solar and wind. Devices must survive corrosive seas and violent storms, while no single design has emerged as dominant. Developers also face years of regulatory hurdles and high costs that deter investors. New test sites like Oregon's PacWave aim to prove the technology, offering hope that wave energy can finally move from promise to reality.

Three boxy EVs - BYD Racco, Nissan Sakura, and Honda Super-One - dominated the 2025 Tokyo Auto Show, each embracing Japan's kei car tradition with electric innovation. BYD eyes global markets, while Sakura and Super-One remain Japan-focused. U.S. entry would require upgrades in safety, speed, and tech. Their compact charm and urban utility signal a strategic shift in EV design - away from sleek sameness and toward character-driven mobility.
