The US Commercial Rooftop Solar Market Is About To Explode, Federal Tax Credits Or Not
31 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"...it's a mystery why federal policy makers are ignoring solar in favor of other, more cumbersome and expensive domestic energy resources..."New subscription-style pay-as-you-go financing models have relieved property owners of that burden. Virtual power plants, the distributed energy resource trend, and the booming community solar movement are three additional factors supporting the commercial rooftop solar movement."
A Powerful Essay On Renewable Energy Reminds Us How Witheringly Stupid The US Has Become
31 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Environmental author and activist Bill McKibben’s recent essay highlights the rapid global rise of solar power—adding a terawatt every two years—and the potential of wind energy, contrasting it with current U.S. policies curbing renewables. He criticizes the administration's baseload bias and new Interior Department restrictions on wind and solar, warning that such moves squander a historic opportunity for domestic clean energy growth.Does America's Current Interior Secretary Know What a Battery Is?
31 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum questioned the reliability of wind and solar, stating solar fails at night and dismissing batteries - as if they didn't exist. His comments came amid the administration’s plan to eliminate green energy tax credits and revoke preferential treatment for renewables. Critics pointed out the irony: under Burgum's previous tenure as North Dakota governor, wind and solar made up over 40% of that state’s electricity.Ford's "Model T Moment": What Jim Farley Is Signaling with a New EV Platform
31 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Ford CEO Jim Farley calls the upcoming August 11 debut of its next-gen EV platform a “Model T moment,” signaling a leap toward affordable, mass-market electric vehicles. Developed by a skunkworks team with ex-Tesla engineers, the flexible platform targets ~$25K pricing, U.S. production, and simplified manufacturing to compete with Chinese EVs and expand Ford’s reach beyond Mach-E and F-150 Lightning.2027 Chevy Bolt Teases Sharper Styling and a NACS Charging Port
30 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"...GM confirmed earlier this year will begin production at the Fairfax Assembly plant in Kansas City, Kansas, by the end of 2025...the second-generation Bolt appears to be more of a deep refresh than a truly new vehicle. It sports the same egg-shaped body as the outgoing EUV model."Chevy also confirmed the Bolt will gain a NACS charging port, allowing the EV to be plugged into Tesla's massive Supercharger network."

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.
