Autonomous Taxi Tech Co-CEO on Uber and Lucid Robotaxi Initiative
02 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
Dave Ferguson, cofounder of Nuro, is launching a new robotaxi startup in San Francisco with backing from Uber and Lucid. The venture aims to develop autonomous vehicles tailored for ride-hailing, not retrofitted from existing cars. Ferguson believes purpose-built robotaxis are key to scaling autonomy and reducing costs, signaling a new phase in self-driving mobility innovation.Why We Shouldn't Care What Bill Gates Has to Say About the Climate Crisis
02 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
Environmental crusader Bill McKibben argues we should not give billionaire Bill Gates undue influence on climate policy. Gates downplays climate’s existential risks, urging focus on poverty and disease, but McKibben highlights his poor track record and past misjudgments on renewables. He stresses that climate change already devastates economies and health, especially in poorer nations, and that clean energy expansion is both urgent and profitableNearly 70% Of The Miles Of The 10 Longest Interstates Is Now Within 10 miles Of A Fast EV Charger, But Range Anxiety Is Stuck In People's Heads
01 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
Even though about 70 % of miles on the 10 longest U.S. interstates are now within 10 miles of a fast-charging station, range anxiety persists among EV drivers. This Fortune article explains that the feeling of running out of charge or being stuck without a charger remains a barrier - even as infrastructure expands - because it is partly psychological and tied to driver habits and perceptions.Why EVs Are About To Get Cheaper Than Gas Cars
01 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
Several factors are converging to potentially make new electric vehicles (EVs) cheaper to purchase than gasoline cars, accelerating their adoption. Key drivers include significant drops in battery material costs, intense global competition, and increasing economies of scale which simplify EV production. This shift means EVs could soon be cheaper upfront and over time due to lower operating expenses, pressuring traditional automakers.Batteries Are Set To Surge Onto The US Grid
01 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
BloombergNEF projects U.S. utility‑scale battery capacity will nearly triple by 2030, with 67 GW of new storage - about 284 GWh - coming online in five years. Batteries already help California cut gas use and Texas avoid grid emergencies. Growth is driven by rising solar, surging power demand, and supportive incentives, though community opposition and fire safety concerns remain hurdles.
EVWorld Exclusive
Iran, Oil Shocks, and the Net-Zero Blame Game
13 Apr 2026 | 
The City A.M. column argues that the Iran crisis proves Britain's net‑zero policy is economically reckless. It claims the UK's refusal to tap domestic oil and gas left it vulnerable to inflation and energy shocks, with growth stagnating and PMI data showing weakness. The author calls for renewed fossil‑fuel production to restore stability - ignoring that global oil dependence itself drives volatility and that renewables reduce long‑term geopolitical risk.
New York's Uber Insurance Fight And The Hidden EV Collision
12 Apr 2026 | 
New York's push to reclassify Uber and Lyft drivers under higher‑cost insurance rules has triggered a political fight, with warnings it could drive out part‑time drivers and raise fares. The move also threatens EV adoption in ride‑hail fleets, since EVs already face higher premiums. The outcome will shape gig‑work economics and the future of shared electric mobility in New York and beyond.
Most People Already See Climate Change As Close To Home
11 Apr 2026 | 
Most people already see climate change as happening now and close to home, so the path forward is shifting from persuasion to action. Communities can move ahead with local energy, resilience, and infrastructure projects because public support is strong, even when national leaders resist. The real opportunity is mobilizing the broad majority that accepts climate reality and building visible momentum that makes denial politically irrelevant.
"Build It Right" On The High-Voltage Frontier
09 Apr 2026 | 
In southeast Minnesota, residents facing a proposed 765‑kV transmission line fear damage to fragile karst groundwater, wildlife habitat, and rural character. The project promises regional reliability and clean energy, but locals demand independent science, real mitigation, fair compensation, and genuine decision-making power before accepting the burden of a new energy "superhighway."
The Real Energy Disaster Would Be Standing Still
09 Apr 2026 | 
A counter-narrative to claims that renewables are driving an environmental and economic crisis. Clean energy investment is not waste but strategic modernization; Europe's energy challenges stem from fuel imports, not wind and solar; and waste issues are solvable. The real risk is clinging to an aging fossil-centric system while global competitors scale the next energy economy.
