3 days ago | cleantechnica.com | David Waterworth

More and more electric buses are arriving on suburban streets Down Under. Here are some snippets of news. Thanks to the folks at Bus News for the heads up. The Lord Mayor of Brisbane, Queensland, was pleased to announce on his Instagram that over one million passengers have ridden on the new, electric Metro system. He exclaims: “We are just getting started!” It is part of Brisbane’s preparation for the 2032 Olympics.
Cold-Weather EV Driving to Waterfall Way

6 days ago | cleantechnica.com | David Waterworth

We are getting past the idea of having serious adventures in Tess, our 6-year-old Tesla Model 3. In the early days, we travelled thousands of kilometers into the Outback and across states. We charged at caravan parks, using cords out of windows, and begged for power from friendly servo owners. These have all been written about on CleanTechnica.
Trump 2.0 And Science Denial - Alice In Wonderland For The 21st Century

6 days ago | cleantechnica.com | Carolyn Fortuna

Probably like you, I’ve been trying to figure out why the Trump administration is rife with science denial. At first I attributed it to anti-intellectualism. With that, I thought, went an ideological mindset in which people identified with superficialities like He Who Dies with the Most Toys Wins. But that didn’t quite answer many questions I had about science denial, so I’ve been researching and reading — a lot.

140 Homes In South LA Will Receive Free Solar Power & Energy Upgrades

1 week ago | cleantechnica.com | Jake Richardson

The benefits of having home solar power are numerous. The most obvious one is generating your own electricity, which means you will have some degree of control over your electricity instead of being completely dependent on a local utility. The price of electricity from utilities tends to rise steadily. In the US for the year 1950, electricity cost about 1.5 cents to 3 cents per kilowatt-hour. A recent average estimate for the same cost this year is about 17 cents per kilowatt-hour.

Can You Ever Trust Automakers Saying There's Not Enough EV Demand?

1 week ago | cleantechnica.com | Zachary Shahan

We’ve seen it countless times now. A decade ago, it was the clear core talking point of automakers. There’s “no demand” for EVs. Consumers supposedly didn’t want electric cars — sad, so sad, but just reality. Except, repeatedly, it has been proven wrong. It’s often been used in connection with efforts to weaken fuel economy/CO2 emission regulations, but then when those regulations kick in, it turns out people will buy the number of EVs automakers need to sell. What a surprise.
LNG Canada’s True Cost: 2.2 Billion Tons Of CO₂e Over 50 Years

1 week ago | cleantechnica.com | Mike Barnard

LNG Canada, the massive liquefied natural gas facility at Kitimat, British Columbia, is on the verge of ramping into full operation. Its commissioning marks a pivotal moment for Canada’s energy and climate policy. Promoted as a cleaner alternative to coal and a model of low-emissions LNG infrastructure, the project is also emblematic of a global trend: locking in decades of fossil fuel infrastructure at a time when net-zero ambitions demand urgent emissions reductions.
There Could Be A Huge Surge In US EV Sales In Rest Of 2025, And Then Big Crash

So, reportedly, the plan for how Republicans will kill the $7,500 tax credit for electric vehicles is this: 180 days after the budget bill is passed into law, the EV tax credit will go away. Additionally, the tax credit for leased EVs will be eliminated immediately for cars produced outside of the United States. Furthermore, there’s the less talked about but very helpful $4,000 tax credit for used electric vehicles — that will end 90 days after the bill is signed into law.
