Morocco will export solar energy to Germany via a 4,800 km undersea cable called Sila Atlantik, delivering up to 26 TWh annually. The cable will run along the Atlantic coast, passing through Portuguese, Spanish, French, Belgian, and Dutch waters before reaching Germany. The project, backed by E.ON and Uniper, is estimated to cost between €40 billion, with developers seeking government guarantees to support this massive clean energy infrastructure.25 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Volkswagen Group will debut its first solid-state battery vehicle by 2025, starting with Ducati's V21L electric motorcycle, a division under VW. Solid-state batteries offer faster charging, longer range, and greater safety than lithium-ion by using solid electrolytes and lithium-metal anodes. Ducati's V21L showcases this tech with 150 hp, 170 mph top speed, and rapid 12-minute charging - marking VW's leap toward next-gen electric mobility.24 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A new U.S. residential pilot is using vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology to let Ford F-150 Lightning trucks discharge energy back to the electric grid from homeowners. in partnership with Sunrun and utility BGE, participating trucks use their built-in bidirectional inverter and home integration system during evening peak hours to help stabilize demand, while owners earn payments for the energy they supply. This marks a first at-home proof of concept for EVs contributing to grid resilience.24 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Europeans on much lower salaries can build wealth more effectively than Americans on higher salaries due to socialized or capped big-ticket expenses. The article highlights that Europeans benefit from minimal costs for healthcare, education, and childcare. Additionally, affordable public transport reduces the need for expensive car ownership, and legally mandated paid leave provides a significant, guaranteed financial benefit not common in the U.S24 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Kingsmill Bond argues the West is deluding itself about the energy transition. The "electrotech revolution" led by solar, batteries, and EVs is already here, advancing exponentially, and is cheaper than fossil fuels. While emerging markets are embracing this, the West risks being left behind by its outdated assumptions and a linear mindset toward change.

Sandvik's "eNimon" sculpture - a nonfunctional EV made without metals - is a PR stunt, not innovation. Framed as a warning against anti-mining sentiment, it sidesteps real concerns about environmental harm and responsible extraction. While EVs require mined materials, most offset their production emissions within 1-2 years. The campaign oversimplifies the debate, mocking critics instead of addressing how mining can evolve. It's a clever illusion - but one that dodges accountability.

Infinite Machine, a Brooklyn-based EV startup, unveiled its P1 scooter and Olto moped at EICMA 2025, targeting European urban riders. Backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Nico Rosberg, the company blends design and performance but has yet to confirm production or deliveries. With prototypes and press buzz, it's not vaporware - but remains unproven. European rollout begins in 2026 via select dealers.

China's rare earth export controls are forcing the West to reshore toxic industries once outsourced. Mining and refining rare earths - essential for EVs and defense - carry major environmental risks. Projects in Nebraska and Wyoming face local opposition over health and pollution concerns. The West must now balance its need for green tech materials with the challenge of minimizing environmental and public health impacts at home. Clean energy, it turns out, has a dirty supply chain.

Toyota's Century project marks a bold leap into ultra-luxury EV territory, challenging Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Cadillac with Japanese craftsmanship and electrified ambition. Once a domestic icon, the Century now signals Toyota's intent to globalize prestige mobility - quietly, deliberately, and with high-voltage precision.

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.
