Nuclear Alchemy: Turning Waste into Wonder Fuel
18 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Los Alamos nuclear physicist proposes converting radioactive waste into tritium - the rare $33M/kg fusion fuel that is quickly running out. Using particle accelerators & molten lithium, the process could produce 10x more tritium than fusion reactors while solving nuclear waste crisis. However, it faces challenges: massive infrastructure needs, precise timing, & unproven at scale. It could transform a liability into a climate solution.Switzerland's Innovation in Travel and Tourism: Now, Arbon's Autonomous Electric Bus to Boost Tourism
18 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Arbon, Switzerland is launching ARTOUR, the country's first autonomous electric bus, in late 2025. The Karsan e-ATAK will run a 2.5 km route with nine stops, linking the historic center to Saurer Werk 2 housing. Operated by Eurobus Ostschweiz AG under the SCCL project, it aims to boost tourism and sustainable mobility. ARTOUR offers zero-emission travel and showcases Switzerland's push toward smart, eco-friendly public transport.Trio of Ex-Tesla Employees Start EV Charging Company in the UK After Elon Musk Fired Everyone
18 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
After Elon Musk abruptly fired Tesla's entire Supercharger team, three ex-employees launched Hubber, a UK-based EV charging startup focused on high-speed urban hubs for taxis and delivery fleets. Leveraging their experience deploying over 1,200 chargers, they aim to fill the urban fast-charging gap. Backed by £60M (~$81M), Hubber's first site opens August 20 in South London with 12 bays and up to 300kW chargers.Rivian's Also: A Billion-Dollar Bet on Small Electric Vehicles

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.
