Solid Power Is Scaling Its Solid-State Batteries - A Technology It Says Could Eventually Beat Lithium Ion on Price, Safety, and Range
07 Jun 2022 | Synopsis
"Solid Power's batteries could eventually improve the energy density of lithium ion batteries by about half... so a vehicle that used to go 350 miles before needing to be recharged might be able to stretch its range above 500 miles."
"But some questions remain about whether companies making solid electrolytes will be able to produce them on a large scale."
New Model Finds Best Sites for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
07 Jun 2022 | Synopsis
"The best location for a charging facility from the power system's standpoint is often not the best location from a transportation systems standpoint. And the best location from a user's standpoint is often a third option. Our model looks at power systems, transportation systems and user decision-making in order to find the best compromise."What's Happening With Wireless Charging? Has Any Progress Been Made Recently?
06 Jun 2022 | Synopsis
"EV owners clearly want the option of wireless charging."
"WiTricity recently conducted a survey to demonstrate just how eager consumers are for wireless tech. According to the survey 96% of those who responded wanted to at least have the option of wireless charging. Meanwhile 71% find the prospect of wireless charging to be 'extremely appealing'."

White House Signals Conditional Opening for Chinese EV Makers
22 Jan 2026 | 
At the Detroit Economic Club, the White House signaled a shift on Chinese EVs, saying they may enter the U.S. market only if they build vehicles in America. The stance reframes Chinese competition as a jobs-first opportunity, tying access to domestic factories and workers. It acknowledges China's EV strength while asserting U.S. control over the terms of entry and the future shape of the auto industry.
Analyzing the Ynet Op-Ed on Europe, America, and the Future
20 Jan 2026 | 
Analysis finds the Ynet op-ed sharp and partly right about Europe's structural challenges, but overly reliant on selective framing and cultural stereotypes. It praises the piece's clear narrative and investor relevance while criticizing its tendency to overstate regulation’s role and ignore Europe's strengths. The op-ed is persuasive, but better read as a strategic argument than a balanced economic diagnosis.
The Climate Panic Narrative Isn't Collapsing - The Facts Are Just Inconvenient
19 Jan 2026 | 
The Daily Signal claims the "climate panic machine" has collapsed, but the evidence says otherwise. Climate science remains robust, public concern is steady, and EV sales continue to grow globally. Policy adjustments in Europe and Canada are refinements, not retreats. The narrative of collapse depends on anecdotes, not data. The transition is moving forward whether the U.S. chooses to lead or not.
When Is an Electric Jet Not an Electric Jet?
16 Jan 2026 | 
Astro Mechanica's hybrid-electric jet engine still burns fuel. It uses a turbine-driven generator to power electric motors that control compressor stages, enabling smoother transitions between turbofan, turbojet, and ramjet modes. There are no batteries. The electric assist improves efficiency and adaptability, but combustion remains the core energy source. It’s not an electric jet - it's a fuel-burning engine with electric augmentation.
The U.S. Just Sold Another Country's Oil. Why Isn't Anyone Asking Hard Questions?
15 Jan 2026 | 
The U.S. has sold Venezuelan state-owned oil and placed the proceeds in U.S.-controlled accounts, including one in Qatar. Officials call the move legal and humanitarian, but the arrangement lacks transparency, bypasses Venezuelan citizens, and concentrates control in the executive branch. This unprecedented action raises serious questions about sovereignty, oversight, and democratic accountability.
