"The new report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) warns that blending hydrogen in mains gas networks is a complicated way of cutting household emissions and would likely cost more than $US500 per tonne of emissions abated."The findings suggest that the use of hydrogen in residential appliances like stove-tops and water heating would be prohibitively expensive, and electrification could serve as a cheaper path to cutting emissions."

"With fuel prices rocketing and cars getting more expensive, many UAE residents are turning to electric vehicles (EVs) to manage their expenses.""The time my car was delivered coincided with the rise in fuel prices. Suddenly, mine became the family car. It was used to drop my siblings to school, for grocery shopping, for long drives and pretty much everything else. I have had the car for a little over two months and it has already done over 9,000km. I am wondering who the gift really was for..."

"New research from the MIT Sloan School of Management and the Penn State Smeal College of Business found...a Cash4Clunkers (C4C) program solely on people buying new EVs led to larger and more cost-effective emissions reductions..."...the more EVs purchased, the faster the EV industry grows. EV costs are driven down through scale economies and learning; the variety of EV makes and models available are expanded; charging infrastructure deployment is sped up; and consumer familiarity with and willingness to buy EVs is boosted. This all in turn boosts EV sales."

"Four-door convertibles are uncommon largely because of the structural challenges involved, usually requiring significant reinforcement in the doors to limit body flex. Likewise, devising a roof that can cover a four-seat area and still fold away into a practical storage area presents a challenge of its own."I think we could capture a relative large market share in this segment above (US)$150k (AU$208,000)," Fisker says.
