A couple of weeks ago, I came across a very interesting article at Electrek that’s worth talking about. In it, Fred Lambert (a man who has become a target for Tesla Stan hatred in recent years), discusses something kind of crazy that happened when the Stans tried to defend a … [continued]

In another recent article, I shared a video from Aptera about the company’s first road trip from Flagstaff to California. But, as we all know, it takes a fair amount of juice to carry something as big as a car from A to B. It’s a lot less energy than … [continued]

Recently, Aptera’s people did something I’ve said they should do for years: take the show on the road!

In 2021, they doubled down with a hydrogen … [continued]

Of all the constituent groups in the US, wouldn’t you think that oil and gas executives would be supporting President Donald J. Trump’s policies? Well, an anonymous survey released late this month by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas says otherwise. Oil and gas company executives, it seems, are complaining … [continued]

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, the Trump/Wright Department of Energy began swinging the axe at clean energy programs—but here’s the twist: this time, they might accidentally be getting a few things right.
