Better conductors and improved sensing capabilities expected to unlock at least 23 gigawatts of additional capacity

After years of broadly unsuccessful efforts to wean drivers off combustion engines, sales of electric vehicles are surging in Europe thanks to the jump in fuel prices stoked by geopolitical upheaval.

At a Colorado cold lab, scientists race to better understand hail in a warming world.

Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl said its new stationary power plants were no longer in Crusoe's near-term plans.

Geely's new AI fast charging uses micro-pulse currents to reverse lithium buildup from fast charging, claiming up to 20% more battery cycle life.

A Mississippi facility will produce transformers in the 10 MVA to 160 MVA range, designed for voltages up to 230 kV. The additional capacity “is expected to help alleviate industry-wide supply constraints,” a Hitachi official told Utility Dive.

The area covered by the Antarctic ozone hole peaked at more than 27 million sq km in September, the second-largest ever observed for this time of year.

Tesla's Semi truck, with a 500-mile range, is about to hit the road in big numbers, with the company saying it plans to make 50,000 units a year.

On Wednesday, Geely Auto unveiled technology that can charge an electric vehicle battery from 10 per cent to 70 per cent in just 4.5 minutes, a leap analysts called a significant development for the Chinese auto group.

Meta has secured a long-term power supply agreement with Constellation Energy, ensuring the continued operation of the Clinton Clean Energy Center. This 20-year agreement will replace existing government subsidies and allows Meta to procure approximately 1.1 gigawatts of energy beginning in 2027 to support its expanding AI infrastructure needs over the coming decade. The Clinton Clean Energy Center, previously a high-performing Illinois nuclear plant, faced closure in 2017 due to financial challenges. It was initially sustained by the Future Energy Jobs Act and its Zero Emission Credit (ZEC) program, which provided financial assistance until 2027. Meta's agreement effectively acts as a successor to this program, ensuring the plant’s viability through direct electricity purchases. Importantly, the energy generated by the Clinton Clean Energy Center won't be exclusively dedicated to Meta's data centers. Instead, it will continue to feed into the regional power grid, with Meta purchasing a significant portion of that energy. This arrangement avoids the need for direct plant-to-data-center connection and ensures broader grid stability. The agreement includes plans to increase the plant's capacity by 30 megawatts through upgrades, bolstering energy supply to the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) Region 4 grid. Constellation Energy is also exploring options for advanced reactor or small modular reactor development at the Clinton site. Meta's investment underscores its significant focus on AI development and associated infrastructure. It also highlights the growing importance of stable, cost-effective, and clean energy sources in the competitive landscape of large model training and computing power. Suppliers within the AI component sector, including NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel, are increasingly prioritizing energy efficiency in their product designs.
