US cities lag far behind global peers in public transit infrastructure, with Houston exemplifying car-dependent sprawl. Upgrading American transit to European standards would cost an estimated $4.6 trillion.
Energy
ESS is expanding into short and medium-duration battery storage with sodium-ion technology, adding 8.5 GWh to its portfolio. The move diversifies the company's energy storage offerings beyond its traditional long-duration focus.
Energy
Box Elder County approved the Stratos Data Center, which could double Utah's power demand and strain the region's scarce water resources. The massive facility poses significant challenges to the already stressed Great Salt Lake Basin.
Policy
The Department of Interior plans to transfer 1.4 million acres of Alaska public lands to the state, potentially opening them to mining and drilling. The Sierra Club opposes the decision, citing concerns about environmental protections being revoked.
Energy
AI data centres face energy storage limitations as lithium batteries prove inadequate for their unique power demands. The article argues that battery technology must evolve to support massive AI infrastructure expansion.
Climate
Better flight planning and routing optimization can reduce aviation fuel consumption and contrail-related warming without requiring new fuels or technology. The approach offers a faster, cheaper alternative to traditional aviation decarbonization solutions.
Energy
The UK has reached 2 million solar installations as of March 2026, driven by both rooftop and large-scale deployments. Installation volumes are expected to increase further with additional government support measures.
Energy
IRENA reports that solar and wind with battery storage now cost $54/MWh, undercutting fossil fuel generation in optimal locations. Round-the-clock renewable power is becoming economically competitive.
Wildlife
North Atlantic right whales experienced their best calving season since 2009 with 23 newborns born. Despite this reproductive success, the critically endangered species still faces extinction threats.
Energy
California's battery storage systems discharged over 12,000 megawatts of energy in March, matching the output of 12 nuclear plants. The milestone demonstrates the state's growing reliance on battery arrays for grid stability.
Energy
PJM Interconnection reopens its queue after four years, accepting 811 new generation projects totaling 220 gigawatts. Experts warn the closure already damaged Maryland's clean energy goals.
Policy
Countries have resumed negotiations on a global framework to reduce shipping emissions, aiming to establish net-zero standards. Nations are working to finalize an agreement on climate measures for the maritime industry.
EV
Norway's EV market share reached 98.6% in Q1 2026, up from 95.2% a year prior, with the Tesla Model Y leading BEV sales. Overall auto sales declined 14% year-over-year to 27,175 units as battery electric vehicles continued gaining market dominance.
Energy
Global corporate funding in the solar sector reached $11.1 billion in Q1 2026, with debt financing at its highest level in over a decade. The surge reflects growing investor confidence in renewable energy expansion.
Energy
Australia's rooftop solar installations surged 31% in April 2026, with record 442 MW capacity added. The growth reflects increasing adoption driven by battery storage technology.
Climate
A new study suggests airborne microplastics accumulating in the atmosphere may be intensifying planetary warming. The research indicates these tiny plastic particles could be contributing to climate change impacts.
EV
Greenlane is expanding its heavy-duty EV truck charging network beyond California into one of the US's busiest freight corridors. The expansion aims to support the adoption of electric vehicles in the commercial trucking sector.
EV
WattEV orders 370 Tesla Semi electric trucks for California deployment, including over 300 through a Port of Oakland partnership. The order marks Tesla's largest commercial truck deployment and comes after the company began high-volume production at its Nevada factory.
