GM CEO teases reborn Chevy Bolt — an Ultium-based, affordable contender to Tesla’s next-gen car

Teslarati

So I can’t say more because I don’t discuss future product programs. This was unfortunate for the Bolt, as it was practical and affordable, with the Bolt EV starting at just $26,500 and the Bolt EUV starting at $27,800. But, you know, it was primarily a move from second generation to third generation.

Opinion: Reinventing fuel-based power for a more secure and resilient grid

Green Car Congress

It is, however, a challenge that is being made all the greater as we continue to decentralize power generation with more distributed, variable and inflexible sources, such as wind and solar. Increasingly, wind and solar are replacing fossil fuels as our principle source of energy. 100% wind and solar is not feasible on its own.

PPPL researchers find way to build high-temperature superconducting magnets for fusion devices

Green Car Congress

Such powerful magnets would more easily fit within the tight space inside spherical tokamaks, which are shaped more like a cored apple than the doughnut-like shape of conventional tokamaks, and are being explored as a possible design for future fusion power plants. Instead, you’re directly winding the conductor into the coil form.
