Who 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.Dust Off : The Unexpected Side Effect Of Having More And More EVs On The Road
24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Electric vehicles reduce not only exhaust emissions but also brake dust - a major urban pollutant. A recent EIT Urban Mobility study in London, Milan, and Barcelona found EVs cut brake-dust pollution by 83% due to regenerative braking, significantly improving air quality. While heavier EVs slightly increase tire wear, non-exhaust emissions (brake, tire, road dust) still drop by ~38% overall. Better health, cleaner cities - a win for electrification.White House Is Trying To Prop Up Coal, Oil, And Gas - But The Economics Of Fossil Fuel Are Failing
24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Since launching his second presidential term, Donald Trump has taken aggressive steps to re-energize the U.S. fossil fuel sector—reviving coal plants, approving pipelines, expanding mining leases, and slashing renewable energy incentives. Yet a recent report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) confirms that renewables remain dramatically cheaper and more efficient than coal, oil, or gas-challenging the economic logic behind the fossil-fuel revival."
Tasmania's Incat Wins Major Electric Ferry Deal in Denmark
24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Incat Tasmania lands a record-breaking contract to build two all-electric 129-meter ferries for Denmark's Molslinjen. Each high-speed catamaran will carry 1,483 passengers and 500 cars, powered by a 45 MWh battery. This milestone highlights maritime electrification's role in global decarbonization and marks a major win for Australia's clean tech exports. A bold step toward zero-emission coastal transport.Nobody Wants Electric Supercars. But Why?
22 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Electric supercars are struggling. With high-performance mainstream EVs like Hyundai's Ioniq 5 N offering 0‑60 mph in ~3.4 sec for ~$68K, buyers don't see value in paying 7‑figure sums for marginal gains. Supercar brands like Rimac, Koenigsegg, Pagani, Ferrari, and Lamborghini report flat demand for full-EV hypercars. Enthusiasts miss engine sound, emotion, and unique tactile feel -EVs excel in speed but lack character."

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.
