As more EVs hit the road, will we have the mechanics to keep them running? In this issue of our environmental newsletter, we look at the challenge of training enough mechanics to service the growing fleet of EVs; see how a stationary battery can be integrated into public spaces; and check out a drone show as an animal-friendly alternative to fireworks. https://www.cbc.ca/news/climate/what-on-earth-ev-mechanics-9.7298006?cmp=rss

I have created a "cheat sheet" for my #EV I also have a runabout, small car I will be selling very soon that's miserly on Gas (I'm comparing against) Thanks to the Pedo King, petrol in #Australia is U$5.3/gallon or A$2.20/L Basically it costs 80% less to run the EV when charged on offpeak power (0-6AM). Practically free on Solar. It costs A$13.20/100km on Gas A$2.4/100km (offpeak) Peak load is basically x2 Another bonus is knowing every time I drive, it makes tRump and carbon polluters cry. I also have a massive 5L cc petrol 4WD trailer puller I re-mortgage me home every time I fillup, I am not thinking about. I just turned the engine over because it sat in the yard unused for 4 weeks. I'm being pressured to sell it 😬 #petrolprices #gasprices #electricVehicles

After a 20-year roller coaster ride, the US startup Aptera is gearing up for series production of EVs that can run on their own solar power. https://cleantechnica.com/2026/08/04/solar-powered-ev-aptera-qualifies-california-hov-lanes/ #evs #electricvehicles #electriccars #autocycles #solarpower #solarcar #solarev #solarenergy #cleanenergy #greenenergy #renewabeleenergy #renewables #sustainable #sustainability #automotive #startups #us #transportation #mobility #decarbonization #zeroemission

#ElectricVehicles "are now expected to make up 29% of all cars sold worldwide this year." The U.S. will lag well behind. https://electrek.co/2026/07/29/477795/

New survey: Owners of #ElectricVehicles love their cars more than owners of gas cars. But at least gas is cheap -- oh, wait... https://insideevs.com/news/802719/ev-buyers-happy-jd-power-survey/

Looking for info on electric vehicles and data privacy, and off grid solar systems that are not skeavy. Feeling the need to upgrade for many reasons but would also like to be aware and choose the least invasive companies and products. Thoughts and advice welcome! https://axis-intelligence.com/ev-data-privacy-guide-data-collection/ #evs #electricVehicles #solar #dataPrivacy

How China's EV industry went from 'embarrassment' to the world's leader By Allyson Horn In China you can swap an empty electric vehicle battery in about four minutes. It is part of how China has come to dominate the EV industry. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-21/china-ev-dominance-over-europe-united-states/106913324 #ElectricVehicles #Batteries #BusinessEconomicsandFinance #Manufacturing #Technology #AllysonHorn

this is probably one of the best development for electric vehicles and their corrosponding materials and subsequent disposal footprint, as compared to lithium-based battery powertrains. with better safety and lower costs, this is one of those booster shots for both electricfication and EV market penetration. https://www.techradar.com/vehicle-tech/hybrid-electric-vehicles/the-worlds-first-ev-with-a-sodium-ion-battery-has-landed-and-it-beats-traditional-lithium-batteries-in-one-key-way #innovation #technology #electricVehicles #EV

Landmark #MIT study debunks persistent myths about #electricvehicles Think #EV don't make sense in cold climates, or dirty power grid cancels out benefits? Researchers find opposite is true—EVs cost no more to own than a comparable gas car almost anywhere in #US No matter where you live in US or what your driving habits are, #electricvehicle is likely to have a smaller #carbonfootprint and cost less overall than comparable #gasoline-powered vehicle, according to analysis. https://www.anthropocenemagazine.org/2026/05/a-landmark-mit-study-debunks-persistent-myths-about-electric-vehicles/
