The monumental task of rewiring the global energy system hinges less on the brilliance of new technologies or the availability of capital and more on our collective ability to navigate a future defined by radical unpredictability. Questions about the pace of electrification, the energy demands of
Introduction The European Union's once-unwavering roadmap toward an all-electric automotive future has encountered a significant detour, triggering a wave of uncertainty and debate across the continent and raising profound questions about the bloc's commitment to its climate goals. This strategic
The multi-billion-dollar question of who will pay to clean up the invisible chemical contaminants now found in nearly every corner of the nation is pitting public utilities against corporate giants in a high-stakes legal and legislative battle. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a class of
A fierce battle is raging in Corpus Christi, Texas, not over land or oil, but over the region's most precious and rapidly disappearing resource: water, an escalating conflict that pits the daily needs of residents against the immense demands of a powerful industrial sector. This struggle has turned
The relentless computational demands of the artificial intelligence revolution are now fundamentally rewriting the century-old rules of how electricity is priced and sold for industrial-scale consumers across the nation. This seismic shift is not a distant forecast but a present-day reality,
Most buildings operate with a critical blind spot: their energy consumption. Facility managers often rely on monthly utility bills for insight, a practice akin to driving a car using only the rearview mirror. It shows where you have been, not where you are going or how to operate more efficiently.
A striking contradiction has emerged at the intersection of technology and climate policy, where tech giant Amazon, a vocal champion of corporate environmental responsibility, has sponsored an AI energy summit dominated by prominent climate deniers and fossil fuel advocates. This move has cast a
As public transit agencies nationwide navigate the complex and often expensive transition toward zero-emission fleets, the Redding Area Bus Authority has taken a decisive and immediate step to improve local air quality. RABA recently converted its entire 16-bus diesel fleet to operate on a B20
In a decisive move that reverberates through an automotive industry grappling with the uncertain pace of electric vehicle adoption, Ford Motor Co. has initiated a comprehensive strategic realignment, signaling a significant departure from its prior aggressive, all-in approach to EVs. This pivot is
The relentless expansion of AI infrastructure, data centers, and renewable energy projects has ignited an unprecedented demand for electricity, yet this technological surge is being throttled by a critical and often-overlooked shortage of essential components. The scarcity of medium-voltage (MV)
