Recycling Is No Longer a Weak Link in the EV Story
For years, critics of electric vehicles have argued that producing and disposing of batteries offsets the environmental benefits of going electric. But recent data paints a far different picture. Thanks to groundbreaking advances in recycling science, electric vehicle batteries are now more sustainable, recoverable,…
A quiet revolution is taking place above us, not in the roar of jet engines, but in the hum of electric propulsion. Regional electric and hybrid-electric aviation is no longer a dream; it is a race quietly and powerfully unfolding. Across the globe, ambitious manufacturers are rewriting the rules of flight, motivated by both sustainability…
ISO New England Advances Grid Interconnection Modernization With Platform-Based Planning Tools
ISO New England has taken a further step toward modernizing grid interconnection and planning processes as the region faces increasing system complexity, growing electrification, and rising large-load demand.
The regional grid operator, which oversees electricity transmission across six New England states, has selected a…
Electric vehicles are reshaping global transportation, yet the infrastructure behind them is struggling to keep pace. The shift toward electric mobility is no longer a distant vision; it is underway. Governments, automakers, and consumers are racing toward an electrified future, but progress will depend on how well the charging ecosystem evolves.

How Circular Innovation Can Transform the Future of Energy Storage
Global demand for lithium-ion batteries is surging, powered by the rise of electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and portable electronics. Yet, as adoption accelerates, so do concerns over sustainability, supply chain security, and resource depletion.
Lithium-ion batteries are central to the energy transition because of…
The Global Transformation of Mobility
The automotive industry is experiencing a historic realignment driven by two powerful forces—electrification and autonomy. These technologies are not only redefining how vehicles are powered and operated but are also reshaping every layer of the value chain, from manufacturing and sales to insurance and repair.
Electric vehicles (EVs) continue to…
A Quantum Shift in Energy Storage
The race to develop next-generation electric vehicle batteries has entered a defining moment. A breakthrough in solid-state battery technology is pushing the boundaries of energy density, charging speed, and safety.
Chinese automaker Chery Automobile recently introduced a prototype solid-state battery with an energy density of 600 Wh/kg, nearly twice…
FAA Launches eVTOL Integration Pilot Program: A New Era for Advanced Air Mobility
1. The Announcement: A Turning Point for U.S. Aviation
In a move that could redefine how people and goods move across the skies, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has announced a major step toward integrating Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) into everyday…
By 2042, the power grid could look radically different: decentralized, automated, and seamlessly integrated across generation, transmission, and distribution. The next two decades will mark a shift from traditional grid management to intelligent orchestration where human operators, artificial intelligence, and distributed energy resources act as a single adaptive ecosystem.
From Grid to Integrated Power Delivery…
