Jesse Jenkins and his collaborators used the REPEAT energy model to project the greenhouse-gas reductions resulting from recent U.S. How fast can you ramp your power plants up and down to handle the variability from wind and solar? Energy Information Administration (EIA) and IEA vastly under project ed wind and solar deployments.

Is NRDC drinking the hydrogen kool-aid? Imagine for a moment that the world had rejected wind and solar energy, and instead decided to wait for a hydrogen fusion research program to reach fruition. Fortunately for the world, wind and solar are growing rapidly, while hydrogen fusion research remains speculative at best.

In June, ONE released more details of the advanced chemistries it’s testing, and announced that it will work with BMW to incorporate a Gemini dual-chemistry pack into a prototype BMW iX electric SUV, which is expected to achieve up to 600 miles of range. That is one drawback that is preventing some types of buyers from going electric.

The Volt is, and always has been, more than than an electric car. GM will leapfrog Toyota and Honda by providing an electric car to the masses by the end of next year. Ive found it facinating how car commercials changed the main MPG number they promoted before gas went over $4 a gallon as city miles.
