Healthy Environment Ruled A Human Right By World's Top Court, As Campaigners Hail 'Seismic' Win
25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
In a landmark July 23 advisory opinion, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that every nation has a legal obligation under international law to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, affirming that a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment is a fundamental human right. The court found that inaction on climate change - especially by high-emitting countries - could constitute an internationally wrongful act, potentially triggering liability or reparations for affected nations including climate refugees from island states."UN Chief Guterres: "Fossil Fuels Running Out of Road"
25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres declared that renewables have reached a "turning point": over 90% of new projects are now cheaper than fossil fuels - solar ~41% cheaper, wind ~53% cheaper. In 2024, investment in clean energy hit $2 trillion, $800 billion more than fossil fuel investment. Guterres warned that fossil fuels "are running out of road," urging global leaders and tech firms to shift rapidly to clean power.Fact Check: Renewables Not to Blame for Texas Power Price Spike
25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Fact Check: Against WSJ's claim, renewables did not drive the rise in Texas electricity bills. Expert analysis shows that inflation, natural gas price surges, grid upgrade costs, and post‑freeze recovery efforts are the true drivers of higher rates. Meanwhile, clean energy continues to offer long‑term affordability. Experts warn that scaling back solar and wind could raise, not reduce, future energy costs.Are These Charging Cubes the Answer?
25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
MAN Truck & Bus has launched the Smart Charging Cube - a modular battery energy storage system ranging from 500 to 1,100 kWh, with up to four fast-charge ports per unit (400 kW), extendable to 1 MW via external charging, ideal for electric truck depots, construction sites, or grid-limited areas. It supports solar input, peak shaving, bidirectional power flow, and enables rapid deployment without major infrastructureWho Really Pays for the Trump-Japan Tariff Deal? American EV Buyers Might
24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
American consumers - especially EV buyers - are the real payers in Trump's U.S.-Japan tariff deal, warns economist Steve Rattner. Tariffs on Japanese autos don't hurt Japan; they're passed through higher prices at U.S. dealerships. Even American-made EVs using Japanese parts may see cost increases. Though the deal includes Japanese investments, there's no guarantee of job gains. Increased EV prices could slow clean-tech adoption, underscoring the hidden costs of trade policy.

Unlocking Heat's Hidden Potential: How a Nanoscale Discovery Could Transform Everyday Tech
24 Oct 2025 | 
A recent nanoscale physics breakthrough reveals heat can transfer across tiny gaps far more efficiently than expected - up to 100 times greater than classical predictions. This could revolutionize cooling and energy systems in electronics, EVs, and smart appliances. While engineering challenges remain, early applications may emerge within 3-5 years, with broader consumer adoption possible in the next decade. The future of heat management may be silent, solid-state, and radically efficient.
Turning the Energy Crunch into a Smart Grid Revolution
24 Oct 2025 | 
America's energy crunch is not about supply - it's about coordination. Virtual power plants and vehicle-to-grid systems offer a scalable, software-driven solution to rising demand from AI, EVs, and climate volatility. By turning homes, vehicles, and businesses into active grid assets, and aligning policy with technology, the U.S. can build a smarter, more resilient energy future without building more power plants. The tools exist - now it's time to connect them.
Auto Retail in 2025: Bridging the Trust Gap Between Dealers and Buyers
24 Oct 2025 | 
The 2025 Urban Science and Harris Poll report reveals a growing disconnect between dealers and buyers. While dealers embrace EVs, AI, and digital tools, many buyers remain cautious - especially about full electrification and online-only retail. Brand loyalty is weakening, and policy clarity is key to adoption. The future of auto retail depends on bridging trust, flexibility, and infrastructure gaps.
Electric Icons in the Making: Audi Concept C vs. Chevrolet Corvette EV
23 Oct 2025 | 
Audi's Concept C previews a refined electric GT built on the mature PPE platform, likely arriving by 2026. Chevrolet's Corvette EV promises supercar performance but faces packaging and thermal challenges. Audi is closer to production; Corvette remains in early development. Both reflect divergent strategies in electrifying legacy sports cars, with Audi emphasizing platform maturity and Chevrolet pursuing brand continuity through engineering innovation.
Electrification Is Not an Oversimplification
23 Oct 2025 | 
Despite critiques that the quest for global electrification is "simplistic", the transition is strategic and necessary. Grid upgrades, battery innovation, and tailored policies make electrification viable. Sodium-ion batteries and recycling reduce material risk. Compared to fossil fuels, electrification offers cleaner, safer, and more resilient systems. Complexity demands better design - not delay.
