Small Modular Reactors and the Big Questions of Cost & Waste
11 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A new study by Kim and Macfarlane finds small modular reactors (SMRs) face steep cost overruns and complex waste challenges. Promised savings rely on mass production that hasn't materialized, while some SMR designs may generate 2–30× more waste per unit of energy. With few commercial deployments and high uncertainty, SMRs remain a high-risk option compared to proven clean technologies.Why EV World Supports the New Heatwave Attribution Study
11 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A peer-reviewed Nature study links 213 heatwaves since 2000 to human-caused climate change, showing emissions from 180 major fossil fuel and cement producers made 53 of them "virtually impossible" without global warming. The study uses EM-DAT data and attribution science to quantify how specific corporate emissions increased deadly heatwave risks, offering a scientific basis for accountability in climate-related harm.The UK, Netherlands, & California Have More EV Charging Ports Than Gas Pump Nozzles?
10 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
The UK, Netherlands, and California now have more public EV charging ports than gas pump nozzles, marking a symbolic shift in transportation infrastructure. This milestone reflects rapid growth in electrification, policy support, and consumer adoption. It signals that EVs are not just viable - they're becoming dominant in key regions leading the clean mobility transition.India's Altmin Lithium Project Becomes First To Join U.S.-Led Mineral Security Partnership
10 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Altmin became the first Indian firm to join the U.S.-led Mineral Security Partnership, acquiring lithium refining technology from Brazil to build the world's first spodumene-to-battery-grade refinery outside China. Initiated under the Biden administration, the milestone strengthens India's clean energy supply chain and reduces dependence on Chinese processing.A Groundbreaking Study Finds EVs Are Now The Lowest Carbon Ride On U.S. Roads - Everywhere, For Everyone
10 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A new study finds battery electric vehicles now have the lowest lifetime carbon emissions of any car type across every U.S. county, regardless of grid mix or driving habits. Researchers analyzed 35 vehicle configurations and confirmed EVs outperform hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and gas cars - even when carrying cargo. Grid decarbonization and improved efficiency have made EVs the most climate-friendly choice nationwide.

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.
What Is the Real Cost to Replace EV Tires?
23 Oct 2025 | 
A recent BGR article overstates EV tire costs and ignores fuel savings, regenerative braking, and tire tech advances. Most EV drivers spend ~$2,100–$2,700 on tires over 100,000 miles - not $3,600. EVs save thousands in fuel and benefit from smoother wear profiles. Brands like Goodyear and Michelin now offer EV-specific tires with longer life and better efficiency. The article lacks context and deserves correction.
The Battery Divide: Strategic Choices in the Global Race to Electrify Mobility
23 Oct 2025 | 
Toyota's "1 EV = 90 hybrids" logic reflects lithium scarcity, but sodium-ion batteries challenge that premise. Sodium offers low-cost, abundant chemistry for short-range EVs, decoupling electrification from lithium dependence. National policy shapes adoption: Europe favors full EVs, the U.S. subsidizes hybrids, and emerging markets seek pragmatic solutions. The battery divide is not just technical - it's strategic, reshaping the future of mobility.
Irizar Expands Electric Bus Lineup with Global Reach and Long-Range Performance
22 Oct 2025 | 
Irizar has launched two new electric buses - the ie bus and i3 Normal Floor - with over 450 km range, advanced safety systems, and modular lithium-ion batteries. The Spanish manufacturer has delivered over 1,000 electric buses globally since 2014. The new models are lighter, seat up to 53 passengers, and meet European safety and cybersecurity standards. With deployments in Europe, Latin America, and Oceania, Irizar is positioned as a global leader in zero-emission transit.
