We have begun delivery of Aptera Solar panel sets to Polydrops for their P21 trailers, marking the start of real-world use by customers. With tons of solar power onboard, these trailers are built for true off-grid adventures. We’re excited to ramp up production to meet growing demand.

Today is Candlemas, a cross-quarter day traditionally marking the mid point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. This year, the astronomical mid-point is tomorrow at around 20:00 GMT.
It marks the end of the year’s darkest quarter.

In action: the ridiculously higher “field to wheels” number for SolarEV compared to ethanol in ICE. Ethanol being a net LOSS compared to just using petroleum directly.

Every step of the clean electricity process is dramatically more efficient than the hydrocarbon process.

williamsforoppd.bsky.social Eric Williams @williamsforoppd.bsky.social · Jul 29
Additional reminder that for a given land area needed to drive

1 mile in an ICE vehicle fueled by ethanol

you can drive

*_300_* miles in an EV powered by solar

For more, check any of the great recent podcasts where @mikegrunwald.bsky.social has discussed his book "We Are Eating the Earth."
simonmahan.bsky.social Simon Mahan @simonmahan.bsky.social · Jul 29
Roughly 30–40% of U.S. corn production — about 30 million acres — is dedicated to ethanol. That same land area could support around 5,000 gigawatts of solar capacity, which is 3–4 times the total nameplate capacity of the entire U.S. electric grid. We don't have a land problem.
