    California to Expand its Sizable EV Charging Infrastructure

    ­Long Beach, CA plays host to APEC this week, and visitors may have noticed the overwhelming abundance of EV charging stations (amongst other Golden State quirks). And California is about to provide billions to expand their charging network even further. In order to increase the mainstream viability of EV

    PLASMA LITHIUM MINERAL CARNOBATION DEVICE

      There are many researchers around the world looking to develop new batteries without lithium. Until one, or more, of these teams manage to find a viable solution, we will remain dependent on the element for energy storage. With the increasing adoption of electric vehicles and renewable energy, lithium

    AI's Massive Energy Toll

    ­We’ve spoken a lot about AI, lately, and there’s a good reason for that (and it’s not because we’ve already been taken over by AI ‘round these parts). Artificial intelligence is set to upend nearly every facet of our lives – not unlike the IoT, for better or worse. But what about AI’s monumental ener

    Mechanical Sensor Eliminates Need for Batteries (in Specific Circumstances)

    How do we alleviate the e-waste problem (and possibly save a few bucks)? We circumvent the disposal process entirely by eliminating the batteries altogether. OK, so we definitely can’t eliminate batteries for all purposes (and we’ll probably always need some form of energy storage), and according to one E
