The CEC projects 478,000 public and limited-access ports by 2030, with multifamily sites and fleet depots carrying much of the electrical buildout.

Electric vehicle sales are well below last year's pace, but lower prices, a growing used market and new models are giving fleet buyers different replacement options.

High-mileage EVs show lower inspection failure rates than petrol cars. The findings raise new questions about fleet lifecycles, resale values and battery health.

More than £7bn is committed to UK batteries, but serious supply-chain gaps persist. Refining, factory delays and 2035 demand could test the sector’s next phase.

Major truck and energy companies are coordinating hydrogen vehicles, fuel and stations in Germany. The goal is broader heavy-duty deployment by 2030.

Ten-Nine is scaling its TENIX battery additive for commercial use. The material aims to extend cell life and reduce heat without redesigning batteries.

PG&E is testing whether thousands of Bay Area homes can support the grid during peak demand. The pilot could reshape how utilities plan for rising power demand.

Aptera’s solar EV generated more than 4 kWh of usable energy in independent daily testing. Results suggest 40-plus miles of solar range in favorable conditions.

Automotive supplier distress is showing up in cash flow, debt and investment decisions before bankruptcy, creating hidden risk for procurement teams.

A greener MOF process could lower energy use and production expenses. Birmingham researchers say it still removes more than 90% of lead from contaminated water.

Grupo Bimbo expanded regenerative agriculture to more than 500,000 hectares in 2025 while advancing water reuse, electrification and waste reduction.

Ava is extending its e-bike rebate program through 2027. The added $3 million will expand access while directing more spending to local bike shops.

Florida's SunTrax testing campus is adding an eVTOL flight track to its autonomous vehicle program, part of a federal AAM pilot spanning 26 U.S. states.

Viridi's RPS 150 finished live-grid testing at ORNL. The project examined how well energy storage works with grid controls under changing real-world conditions.

Lithium prices are recovering, but a steep drop in mining and exploration investment could leave future battery supply short of projects financed.

Tiny robots could help pull lithium from seawater. Texas A&M researchers are testing whether the idea can deliver usable supply at a realistic cost and scale up.

Ford, GM, Stellantis, and Honda are absorbing billions of dollars in EV losses as canceled programs and battery joint venture exits reprice capital.

European BEV registrations topped 1.2 million in the first half of 2026. The next challenge is scaling charging, grid capacity and policy support across Europe.

A transformer and switchgear shortage threatening data center development is also affecting utilities, power projects, and broader industrial expansion.
