An international study of 10 global cities found that a balance of geophysical factors (climate, access to resources, and gateway status) and technical factors (power generation, urban design, and waste processing) determine the greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) attributable to cities.

But we have demonstrated that by directly using power generated by the cold universe, we can chill water to cool buildings by as much as 5 ºC during the day without electricity and light the night without wires or batteries. With the ambient environment as a hot reservoir, we can use the coldness from deep space to create the cold reservoir.

This first-generation lithium battery has undergone more than three years of coordinated field testing in Japan, North America and Europe in a wide variety of climatic environments and driving conditions. Using approximately 150 conventional hybrids (mostly Prius), the field test vehicles logged well over a million combined miles.

The introduction of any new system causes perturbations within the current operating environment, which in turn, create behavioral responses, some predictable, many not. The perturbations caused by transitioning EVs to scale are not market-driven, but government policy-driven to meet a climate-emergency.
