Can You Lose Weight With An E-bike? We Asked An Expert
25 Aug 2024 | Synopsis
"A study published in the Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives...looked at over 10,000 participants in seven European countries and found that e-bike users would have significantly longer trips, compared to regular cyclists, resulting in more overall physical activity."While a traditional bike will burn more, according to the National Accident Help Line, a study has shown there’s only roughly a 20% difference between the two
Perth, Australia's EPCA Plans To Convert 50-70 Mining Trucks To Electric Power Annually
25 Aug 2024 | Synopsis
"EPCA became famous for its 'Green Machine,' a CAT 777 100-ton haul truck...Switching the CAT from diesel to battery electric power boosts the haul truck’s horsepower from 1,000 hp to 1,120 hp, and bumps torque from 4,700 Nm (3,400 lb ft) to 5,200 Nm (3,835 lb ft)...six 290 kWh Xerotech batteries running in parallel. The combined battery pack is good for some 1740 kWh of energy storage..."Can Hydrogen Help the Energy Transition? Panel Explores the Benefits and Challenges
25 Aug 2024 | Synopsis
"...hydrogen is truly a climate-friendly alternative...making its benefits possible on a large scale will require adding significantly to the 10 million tons of hydrogen that the U.S. produces annually now...Hydrogen that comes from natural gas is referred to as gray hydrogen, which accounts for about 95 percent of hydrogen currently produced in the U.S. and globally"While there are many challenges to wider development and use of green hydrogen, the greatest challenge is cost."
Aptera Receives Bodies In Carbon Delivery, Multiple Production Intent Solar EV Builds To Follow
24 Aug 2024 | Synopsis
"the BinCs (from Italy) will be cleaned up and soon become Aptera's next three production-intent solar EV builds."...it would end its crowdfunding campaigns, which garnered $135 million from over 17,000 investors, Aptera announced a partnership with financial group US Capital Global....$60 million will provide the startup with enough cash to build 10-12 validation prototypes, complete crash testing, and then manufacture 10-15 production intent vehicles that will be sold."
What Climate Policies Work Best? A New Study Has Answers
24 Aug 2024 | Synopsis
"Out of 1,500 policies in 41 countries, a small fraction had a big impact.""...a new study out Thursday in the journal Science...the biggest cuts came from adopting a combination of policies...just 63 instances in which countries substantially slashed emissions...actually, we've made a fair amount of progress
"...Regulation is the most powerful policy for reducing emissions from transportation."

Inside China's EV Expansion Across Mexico
07 Aug 2026 | 
Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers are rapidly building out their presence in Mexico, shifting from pure export strategies to direct industrial investment. Major auto-parts suppliers have built a deep tier-one manufacturing foundation in northern industrial corridors. Simultaneously, automotive giants like BYD, Chery, and Geely are competing to secure full vehicle assembly capacity. While trade regulations present market hurdles into the United States, local Mexican vehicle assembly continues to accelerate.
Why Chery's $75M KGM Stake Won't Be a Backdoor into the U.S. Market
07 Aug 2026 | 
Chery's $75M stake in KG Mobility raises speculation about U.S. market entry. While South Korea’s KORUS FTA offers tariff advantages, U.S. rules banning Chinese-origin connected car software block access. KGM relies on Chery's T2X platform and software stack, making substitution with Korean systems impractical. The partnership is aimed at Europe, Latin America, and Australia, not the U.S.
From Highway to Deep Water: How EV Battery Tech Is Powering Europe's Next-Gen Submarines
04 Aug 2026 | 
Saft, a TotalEnergies subsidiary, will supply lithium‑ion batteries for Naval Group's new submarines, replacing bulky lead‑acid units. The upgrade boosts energy density, reliability, and silent operation, marking a leap from EV tech into European defense. It signals both technological maturity and strategic sovereignty, with potential to reshape naval power
BYD's "One Car Per Minute" Factory: What It Really Means - and Why It Matters
03 Aug 2026 | 
BYD's highly automated EV factories achieve a one‑car‑per‑minute cadence by running hundreds of synchronized workstations in parallel. Each vehicle moves through battery installation, interior assembly, painting, and quality checks as part of a continuous flow. The speed reflects production throughput, not the time to build a single car. Vertical integration, robotics, and EV‑optimized design give BYD a major manufacturing advantage that challenges Western automakers.
Brazil's Renewable Paradox: Abundance, Autonomy, and the Politics of Liquid Fuels
31 Jul 2026 | 
Brazil's grid is over 85 percent renewable, yet its transport sector remains dominated by ethanol, biodiesel, and petroleum. Sugarcane functions as the Midwest corn of Brazilian politics, shaping national fuel policy and slowing electrification. Chinese EVs are rising, but biofuels and oil exports still anchor Brazil's energy economy and keep per‑capita emissions far below U.S. levels.
