Electric Vehicle Batteries Can Easily Outlive An Average Gas Car In The US' Lifespan, Study Reveals

21 Jun 2025 | Synopsis

"According to Geotab's findings, the average EV battery can last up to 20 years, with minimal annual degradation...That's six years longer than the average lifespan of a gas-powered vehicle in the United States, which currently stands at around 14 years.

"The data, drawn from over 10,000 electric vehicles, shows that batteries lose only about 1.8 percent of their original capacity per year...This means an EV would retain roughly 64 percent of its range even after two decades of use."

Viewpoint: An EV Revolution Is Happening In The Heart Of OPEC

21 Jun 2025 | Synopsis

Fully electric vehicles comprised 10 per cent of the value of cars imported into the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 2024, according to trade data. Throw in hybrids and plug-in hybrids, and more than a quarter of the market is switching to batteries

21 Jun 2025 | Synopsis

"Between 2007 and 2016, oil production in the United States increased 75 percent, while natural gas production increased 39 percent...Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a technique to extract fossil fuels - primarily methane

"...a single well can use between 1.5 and 16 million gallons of water...One of the largest environmental impacts of fracking is the amount of methane it releases...the amount of smog produced by oil and gas drilling now exceeds the amount of smog from vehicles."

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.

America's Untapped Power: Why Wave Energy Still Waits For Its Moment

01 Nov 2025 | America's waves hold vast untapped energy - enough to power over half the nation's electricity needs. Yet wave power lags behind solar and wind. Devices must survive corrosive seas and violent storms, while no single design has emerged as dominant. Developers also face years of regulatory hurdles and high costs that deter investors. New test sites like Oregon's PacWave aim to prove the technology, offering hope that wave energy can finally move from promise to reality.
