—Lynn Price, head of the China Energy Group. They used a lot more coal than they originally admitted to, several hundred million tons more. Another major shift is that China has become a voracious energy importer, especially of coal and liquefied natural gas. Compared to 2005-2006, it has probably doubled its presence.

Is the electric truck cost-effective in comparison with the diesel truck? Urban delivery trucks may be a suitable application for electrification.

A paper by a team from the University of Chicago and MIT suggests that technology-driven cost reductions in fossil fuels will lead to the continued use of fossil fuels—oil, gas, and coal—unless governments pass new taxes on carbon emissions. for oil, 24% for coal, and 20% for natural gas. —Christopher Knittel.

And it has become clear that not only oil and gas giants are being targeted, after one of the world’s largest mining and commodity trading companies, Glencore, decided to put a limit on its thermal coal investment. The latter is partly caused by “global warming constraints” and lower oil prices in general. Link to article: [link].

As I’ve detailed before, special considerations need be made, even in a relatively long-range EV like our 2018 Model X, and more attention has to be paid to planning electrified road trips than coal-rolling ones. Of course, this requires planning to stay at hotels with chargers, but that’s a small price to pay for this benefit.
