Ferrari Says Its Electric Car Will Be "Completely Different In Every Possible Way"

12 Feb 2026 | Synopsis

Ferrari says its first EV, the Luce, will be "completely different" because it won't imitate gas‑powered Ferraris. Instead, it will introduce a new electric‑specific driving feel, unique sound generated from the powertrain, custom torque delivery, and redesigned vehicle dynamics and styling. Ferrari aims to create an EV that feels distinctively Ferrari without copying combustion traits.

EV Taxes: Road Funding's Red Herring

12 Feb 2026 | Synopsis

The article argues that EVs aren’t to blame for shrinking road‑funding revenue. The real issue is the outdated gas‑tax system, which hasn’t kept up with inflation or rising fuel efficiency. EV‑specific fees raise little money and distract from needed, fuel‑neutral reforms. The authors call for fairer long‑term solutions like mileage‑based fees or weight‑based charges instead of targeting EV drivers.

2026: The Year Of A "Quiet Climate" Shift

12 Feb 2026 | Synopsis

Forbes argues 2026 is a "quiet climate" year, where the sector shifts from hype to disciplined execution after the harsh funding and market reset of 2025. Instead of moonshots, investors and companies are backing practical climate tech that cuts costs, strengthens resilience, and solves real‑world energy, water, and supply‑chain pressures. The article frames 2026 as a strategic rebuilding year, not a loud one.

Can The US Challenge China's Dominance In Critical Minerals?

12 Feb 2026 | Synopsis

Aljazeera video concludes that China's dominance in critical minerals is deep and long‑standing, controlling most global mining and nearly all processing. The US is trying to respond with alliances, stockpiles, and new technologies, but it cannot catch up through mining alone. Washington can challenge China only over the long term, and shifting supply chains may push environmental and economic burdens onto developing countries.

Portugal's Electricity Production Last Month Was Largely Led By Hydro And Wind Power

12 Feb 2026 | Synopsis

Portugal generated 80.7% of its electricity from renewables in January, led by hydro at 36.8% and wind at 35.2%, with solar contributing 4.4%. Strong rainfall and winter winds boosted output, sharply reducing fossil‑fuel use. Battery storage played only a minor role, with hydro reservoirs providing most balancing. Northern wind and hydro plus southern solar pushed Portugal to the top of the EU leaderboard.

Reinventing the Windmill: Two Radical Ideas Aiming to Break Wind Power's Biggest Bottlenecks

13 Feb 2026 | Two companies aim to reinvent wind power. Airloom Energy uses a low, oval ground track with small blades for easy transport and installation in places big turbines can't go. Radia takes the opposite approach, developing a giant aircraft to deliver ultra‑large blades to remote regions. Both target wind's biggest barrier: logistics, signaling a new era of experimental turbine design.

The Undoing: Inside the Repeal of the CO2 Endangerment Finding

13 Feb 2026 | The repeal of the CO2 endangerment finding marked a major shift in U.S. climate policy. EPA chief Lee Zeldin, long aligned with fossil‑fuel interests, drove the rollback through a fast, opaque process critics say ignores science and raises long‑term economic and environmental risks. Courts or a future administration could restore the finding, and Congress could codify it to prevent future reversals.

Waymo Robotaxi Crash Tests Public Trust in Autonomous EVs

12 Feb 2026 | A recent Waymo robotaxi crash in Phoenix has become a test of public trust in autonomous vehicles. The incident involved an electric Waymo SUV striking a towed pickup, prompting federal scrutiny and renewed debate over robotaxi readiness. Waymo and other U.S. and Chinese operators use electric platforms, linking autonomy to electrification. The crash highlights that public confidence, not engineering alone, will shape the future of robotaxis.

Do Renewables Make Climate Change Worse?

12 Feb 2026 | A claim that renewable energy is making extreme weather worse flips cause and effect. Climate change, driven by fossil fuels, is damaging solar and wind projects, not caused by them. There is no scientific evidence that renewables intensify storms or heatwaves. Instead, they cut emissions and reduce long-term climate risk. The narrative that renewables worsen climate change is a misinformation tactic, not a serious reading of the science.

Do Electric Cars Deliver Carbon Savings? A Critical Look

11 Feb 2026 | A Daily Mail article claims electric cars deliver no carbon savings, but it relies on a narrow UK study that compares EV charging emissions to tailpipes only, ignoring oil extraction, refining, and fuel distribution. When lithium refining and battery production are included for EVs and upstream oil emissions are included for ICE vehicles, peer reviewed lifecycle studies show EVs still deliver substantial lifetime carbon savings, especially as grids decarbonize.
