GM CEO: Automaker Planning Entire Affordable EV Range
21 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
GM President Mark Reuss confirmed a new family of affordable Chevrolet EVs launching by 2027, starting with a redesigned Bolt. Built on GM’s Ultium platform, the lineup will offer improved range, lower costs, and broader appeal. Reuss emphasized GM's commitment to mainstream electrification, with multiple models planned to follow the Bolt. The goal: make EVs accessible without sacrificing performance or utility.Norway's Ferry Operator Norled Could Have Saved Money & Staff by Skipping Hydrogen
21 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Norway's ferry operator Norled lost €85M after investing in hydrogen ferries like MF Hydra, which cost more to build and operate than battery-electric or diesel alternatives. Hydrogen fuel is expensive, inefficient, and emits more CO2 than expected - double that of diesel and 40x more than electric. Battery ferries like MF Nesvik prove cheaper, cleaner, and more practical. Critics say Norled's hydrogen gamble cost jobs and failed to deliver strategic value.Archer Beats Out Joby for Lilium eVTOL Patents
20 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
US-based Archer Aviation acquired 300 patents from bankrupt German eVTOL firm Lilium for $21M, beating Joby, its competitor. The deal includes ducted fan tech, aircraft design, and battery systems. Archer plans to expand beyond air taxis into cargo, defense, and sport aviation. Lilium's collapse reflects broader industry consolidation, as well-funded players absorb assets from struggling startups. Lilium spent more than $1.5 billion developing these technologies.Rebooting the 2027 Chevy Bolt Was More Complex Than You'd Think
20 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The 2027 Chevy Bolt retains its familiar look but features a nearly complete electrical overhaul. Built on GM's Global B architecture, it supports OTA updates and advanced driver aids. It uses LFP batteries for ~255 miles of range and 150kW fast charging (10–80% in 26 minutes), plus Tesla's NACS port. Production shifts from Michigan to Kansas, reusing body tooling to cut costs. Target price is under $30K, with deliveries starting January 2027.A Power Outage Means You Can't Charge Your EV: What Do You Do?
20 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
If your power goes out, your home EV charging stops - but so do gasoline pumps, so you’re not at a unique disadvantage. Most outages are short: the average US user experienced under six hours of interruption in 2023. To prepare, keep your EV topped up (rather than waiting until very low), know public DC and Level-2 charging stations within about 25–50 miles, and if you have a generator, wiring for at least a trickle charge helps.

He Tracked Toxic Wells in America's Parks. Then the Government Cut Him Loose.
03 Nov 2025 | 
Jonathon Kolak, the only federal scientist tracking abandoned oil and gas wells in U.S. national parks, was abruptly fired in 2023. His work exposed methane leaks and legacy pollution across public lands. No replacement was named. Critics say his dismissal signals a retreat from environmental accountability and transparency, just as the U.S. faces mounting climate and cleanup challenges.
China's Thorium Breakthrough: A Strategic Leap Toward Safer, Sustainable Nuclear Energy
03 Nov 2025 | 
China's Thorium Molten Salt Reactor achieved the world's first thorium-to-uranium fuel conversion, proving thorium can generate uranium-233 for future reactors. The experimental setup doesn't produce electricity but validates fuel viability. China aims to build a 100 MW demonstration reactor by 2035. This breakthrough supports safer, scalable nuclear energy and positions China as a leader in fourth-generation reactor technology.
Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 Preview - The Hard Questions Automakers Must Answer
01 Nov 2025 | 
The EMEA Automotive Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 will confront the gap between ambition and execution. Automakers must scale low‑carbon technologies, decarbonize sprawling supply chains, and secure renewable energy for factories and charging networks. Executives will push for clear policy, carbon pricing, and stable investment signals. Circular economy practices and global competition add urgency. The challenge: make carbon neutrality practical, profitable, and fast enough to meet climate goals.
Can Food Waste Fuel America's Skies? The Promise And Pitfalls Of Trash-To-JetA
01 Nov 2025 | 
Scientists are developing ways to turn America's massive food waste stream into sustainable aviation fuel. Using processes like hydrothermal liquefaction, discarded scraps can be converted into biocrude and refined into jet-ready fuel. At full scale, it could replace only a fraction of U.S. daily jet fuel demand, but it would cut landfill methane and diversify supply. Major hurdles remain: costly collection, dispersed feedstock, certification, and economics compared to fossil fuel.
Can Coal Power the AI Boom? Wyoming's Bet on a Fading Fuel
01 Nov 2025 | 
Wyoming's coal is being promoted as vital for powering the AI boom, but the market reality tells another story. Utilities continue retiring coal plants as cheaper wind, solar, and natural gas dominate. Lease auctions draw little interest, and even China is pairing coal with massive renewable growth. Analysts warn AI demand may be overstated, leaving coal an expensive detour. The conclusion: coal is unlikely to fuel America's AI future.
