Energy storage and nuclear fusion—two reliable crowd pleasers when the crowd you’re talking about is readers of IEEE Spectrum —are well represented among our most widely read energy stories of 2023. Mainspring calls its machine a linear generator, because it converts linear motion into electricity. Number one? Heat pumps. Number two?

Interest in fusion energy is surging today in response to the world’s desperate need for abundant clean power. However, the standard deuterium-tritium (D-T) reaction at the core of conventional fusion reactors conceals big, long-term problems. They also produce little or no radioactive waste.

Regenerative braking is accomplished by allowing a vehicle’s electric motor-generator to spin freely, generating an alternating current which is rectified to direct current to charge the vehicle’s battery pack. Some early hybrid vehicles employed regen in tandem with a conventional hydraulic braking system.

Gasoline engine engagement depends on state of charge, acceleration and vehicle speed. The weight-efficient architecture of the new Sonata platform, combined with the lightweight lithium polymer battery pack, make the Sonata Hybrid the lightest vehicle in the segment, at just 3,457 pounds, 263 pounds lighter than the Fusion Hybrid.

It could go weeks between charges while mobiles equipped with other displays barely made it through a day (some of them still barely make it through a day). They came up with some early products that targeted shelf labels for brick-and-mortar retail stores and also for signage. From the very beginning, e-paper seemed magical.

Regenerative braking uses the electric motor to convert kinetic energy into electric energy when applying the brakes or coasting and stores it in the battery. The rear passengers get a center armrest with cup holders and HVAC vents, but no USB charge ports. The low profile, no-nonsense dash houses a 12.3-inch Yes, we got dirty.
