All the world’s greatest wind power resources are offshore – often a long way offshore, where the water’s so deep that it’s impractical to build typical fan-on-a-stick wind turbines with bases sunk deep into the sea floor. Floating wind, at this stage,… Continue reading T-Omega re-thinks floating offshore wind turbines for huge cost savings
Geely’s electric brand Zeekr has teamed up with Chinese battery giant CATL on an ultra-long-range version of its Zeekr 001 shooting brake, resulting in a production electric car capable of doing more than 1,000 km (621 miles) on a single charge.Continu… Continue reading Zeekr goes to production on 1,000-km electric car using CATL batteries

Zeva is moving to prototype a second-generation version of its radically different take on eVTOL flight. The Z2 remains a tail-sitting flying saucer that flies a single person head-first at high speeds, but the new model makes some practical changes.Co… Continue reading Zeva aims for efficiency and practicality with upgraded Z2 eVTOL UFO

The road is a rich olfactory experience behind the handlebars of a motorcycle. That can be a great thing; the smell of a log fire, or ocean surf, or pine forest can definitely enhance your day. On other occasions, such as overtaking a truck full of she… Continue reading Puros motorcycle helmet pipes you HEPA-filtered air as you ride
CalWave has been working on its xWave clean power technology for many years now, and has announced the successful conclusion of an extended open-ocean test off the coast of San Diego, in which the device demonstrated over 99% system uptime.Continue Rea… Continue reading CalWave concludes 10-month test of its submerged wave energy generator
We interviewed the core team at Norway’s World Wide Wind (WWW) to learn more about its floating, tilting, contra-rotating, double turbine design, which it says can unlock unprecedented scale, power and density to radically lower the cost of offshore wi… Continue reading A deeper dive into World Wide Wind’s colossal, contra-rotating turbines
“We don’t need any energy input, and it bubbles hydrogen like crazy. I’ve never seen anything like it,” said UCSC Professor Scott Oliver, describing a new aluminum-gallium nanoparticle powder that generates H2 when placed in water – even seawater.Conti… Continue reading Aluminum-gallium powder bubbles hydrogen out of dirty water
London company SkyFly has opened pre-orders on a two-seat personal eVTOL aircraft called the Axe. Scheduled to begin customer deliveries in 2024, the Axe promises 160-km/h (100-mph) top speeds, up to 320 km (200 miles) of range, and a winged airframe.C… Continue reading SkyFly Axe personal eVTOL flies in the sky, as the name suggests
