The First Fully Electric Venetian Water Taxi Can Cruise the Canals All Day
06 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Venice's first fully electric water taxi, Lucietta, was unveiled by Swiss energy firm Repower. Designed by Nauta Design and built in Murano, Lucietta combines traditional Venetian styling with electric propulsion—powered by a 200 kW motor and 180 kWh battery system. It can cruise a full working day (7–20 km/h) on a single charge, emits no direct pollutants, and cuts energy use by around 60% compared to diesel boats.ICCT Study Ends Debate: EVs Drastically Cleaner Than Gasoline Cars
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A definitive life-cycle study by the ICCT confirms EVs in Europe are drastically cleaner than gas cars. Even including battery manufacturing, an EV's lifetime emissions are 66-69% lower. The initial "carbon debt" from production is repaid within just 1-2 years of driving. This environmental advantage is set to grow significantly as electricity grids become cleaner, validating pro-EV policies.Your EV's Battery May Be Spying On You, New Study Reveals
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A new study from Chinese universities reveals hackers can track your EV. By analyzing your battery's unique "power fingerprint" at a public charger, they can reconstruct your exact driving routes, including home and work. This low-cost side-channel attack exposes a major privacy risk in the vehicle's battery management system, revealing a new frontier for automotive cybersecurity that goes beyond just software.EV Batteries Are Fit To Run A Home Or Even Power The Grid – But Some Car Brands Say "No"
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, which allows EVs to power the grid, faces significant roadblocks in Australia. The high cost and lack of compatible cars and chargers are key barriers. Unclear regulations, complex payment systems for EV owners, and consumer concerns about potential battery degradation are also hindering its widespread adoption. Overcoming these hurdles is crucial to unlocking V2G's potential to help stabilize the electricity grid.5000 Years of Cautionary Tales: When Golliaths Fall It's Not An Accident
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
"Luke Kemp's essay argues societal collapses are rarely accidents but acts of "self-termination." Throughout history, civilizations have failed by clinging to unsustainable practices for short-term gain, even when facing clear environmental threats. He posits our modern world is repeating this pattern with the climate crisis, suggesting our inability to change course is a form of collective, self-inflicted demise, not an unavoidable fate..and global collapse is coming unless inequality is vanquished."

Singapore Awards Groundbreaking Contract for Level 4 Autonomous Bus Trial
12 Oct 2025 | 
Singapore's LTA has awarded a contract to MKX Technologies, MOGOX, and BYD to launch Level 4 autonomous electric buses by 2026. Six 16-seater buses will operate on Services 191 and 400, with MOGOX providing self-driving tech, BYD supplying the buses, and MKX managing the project. Safety operators will be onboard initially. The trial supports Singapore’s smart mobility goals and could expand to 100–150 buses if successful.
Sun vs. Sagebrush: Nevada's Solar Boom Meets Its Wild Heart
12 Oct 2025 | 
Nevada's Esmeralda 7 solar project was canceled amid ecological concerns and political pushback. Conservationists opposed its scale and impact on desert wildlife and cultural sites. The Trump administration halted its review, citing regulatory burdens. Though 12 million acres are solar-designated, only 20,000 are developed. Advocates urge smarter siting, wildlife corridors, and use of degraded lands to balance clean energy goals with wilderness protection.
EV Alarmism: Common EV Issues Article Analysis
12 Oct 2025 | 
The GoBankingRates article highlights real EV concerns - battery costs, charging issues, part shortages, and recalls - but overstates their frequency and impact. Most problems are rare, covered under warranty, or brand-specific. Charging and battery failures are uncommon, and recalls affect gas cars too. The article lacks comparative data and context, making its claims seem more alarming than typical EV ownership realities.
Rivian's Infotainment Revolution: AI at the Wheel, No Smartphone Required
11 Oct 2025 | 
Rivian's infotainment system replaces CarPlay with a native AI-powered interface backed by Amazon and Volkswagen. It offers smart navigation, voice control, music/video streaming, and cloud-based personalization. AM radio is excluded, prompting bipartisan legislation to mandate its return. Autonomous driving integration is planned, with updates rolling out in 2025 and full features expected in the R2 by 2026.
