Plummeting Battery Prices Will Push BEVs Below Parity Soon
16 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Battery costs are falling so fast that battery electric vehicles (BEVs) could reach price parity with internal combustion vehicles within 2-4 years in Europe, and in China some models have already done so. The author expects battery pack costs to drop ~70% over the next five years, which would allow automakers to slash BEV retail prices while maintaining margins. That shift may force more aggressive pricing competition and encourage faster EV adoption.GM Bets Big On Electric Cars Even As Market Slows
15 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Despite a slowing EV market, GM remains committed to its electric strategy, citing strong sales growth and expanded market share currently at 17.2% YTD. It offers a wide EV lineup of some 30 models, but has paused some production and laid off workers amid shifting demand. While GM scrapped its all-EV pledge by 2035 and backed regulatory rollbacks, it is reintroducing the affordable Chevy Bolt and aims to balance EV accessibility with profitability.Renewable Energy Outpaces Coal For Electricity Generation In Historic First, Report Says
15 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
In the first half of 2025, renewable energy generated more global electricity than coal for the first time - 30% vs. 27%, per Ember. Solar and wind led the surge, especially in China and India. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called it a "historic opportunity," urging nations to accelerate the transition from fossil fuels and embrace a clean energy future powered by investment and equity.Thought The Yangwang Was Fast? These Are The 32 Fastest EVs On The Planet
15 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Top Gear ranks the 32 fastest electric vehicles, spanning cars, bikes, planes, and trains. Highlights include the Rimac Nevera R (268mph), Rolls-Royce's Spirit of Innovation plane (387mph), and France's TGV train (357mph). The fastest is BYD's Yangwang U9 Xtreme at 308.4mph for production cars, while Japan's L0 maglev train tops all at 375mph. The list showcases global EV speed innovation across all transport modes. Three are friends of EV World.Clear Skies Ahead - Delta Partners With Maeve On M80 Hybrid Regional Aircraft
15 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Delta Air Lines Delta is partnering with Maeve to develop the M80, a hybrid-electric regional aircraft aiming for 40% fuel savings. It uses electric motors to spin exterior fan blades, powered by batteries recharged via onboard turbine engines that also provide thrust. This setup reduces emissions on short-haul routes. Maeve targets a 2031 launch, with Delta's support signaling growing airline interest in sustainable aviation.

He Tracked Toxic Wells in America's Parks. Then the Government Cut Him Loose.
03 Nov 2025 | 
Jonathon Kolak, the only federal scientist tracking abandoned oil and gas wells in U.S. national parks, was abruptly fired in 2023. His work exposed methane leaks and legacy pollution across public lands. No replacement was named. Critics say his dismissal signals a retreat from environmental accountability and transparency, just as the U.S. faces mounting climate and cleanup challenges.
China's Thorium Breakthrough: A Strategic Leap Toward Safer, Sustainable Nuclear Energy
03 Nov 2025 | 
China's Thorium Molten Salt Reactor achieved the world's first thorium-to-uranium fuel conversion, proving thorium can generate uranium-233 for future reactors. The experimental setup doesn't produce electricity but validates fuel viability. China aims to build a 100 MW demonstration reactor by 2035. This breakthrough supports safer, scalable nuclear energy and positions China as a leader in fourth-generation reactor technology.
Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 Preview - The Hard Questions Automakers Must Answer
01 Nov 2025 | 
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.
Can Food Waste Fuel America's Skies? The Promise And Pitfalls Of Trash-To-JetA
01 Nov 2025 | 
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.
Can Coal Power the AI Boom? Wyoming's Bet on a Fading Fuel
01 Nov 2025 | 
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.
