Lean Software, Power Electronics, and the Return of Optical Storage

Cars That Think

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.

Inside the Global Race to Tap Potent Offshore Wind

Cars That Think

There’s good reason for this hustle: The United Kingdom wants to add 34 gigawatts of offshore wind power by 2030, en route to decarbonizing its grid by 2035. Ireland, South Korea, and Taiwan are among the other countries with bold floating wind ambitions. But the shallow waters east of London are already packed with wind turbines.
