Weltweit hat Audi seit Einführung der ersten Generation des Audi Q3 insgesamt mehr als zwei Millionen Fahrzeuge verkauft, somit ist der Wagen eines der absatzstärksten Modelle im Produktportfolio. Damit das so bleibt, erneuert Audi die Baureihe mit der dritten Modellgeneration umfassend. Bei Technik und Optik, versteht sich. Seine innovatives Bedienkonzept sowie zahlreiche Assistenzsysteme erhöhen nicht nur die Sicherheit, sondern auch den Komfort. Darum geht es diesmalAudi legt mit der dritten Generation des Q3 die Messlatte im Premium-SUV-Kompaktsegment wieder eine Stufe höher und setzt in mehrfacher Hinsicht neue Maßstäbe. Das Exterieur präsentiert sich selbstbewusst und emotional, zudem lassen innovative Funktionen den Audi Q3 zum digitalen Begleiter werden. Wir werfen einen ersten Blick auf den jüngsten Spross der Ingolstädter! Power und Drive! Schauen wir zunächst auf die Antriebe. Los geht es mit dem Audi Q3 SUV TFSI mit 110 kW (150 PS) Mild-Hybrid-System und serienmäßiger Siebengang S tronic. Sein System „Cylinder on demand“ (COD) legt bei niedrigen und mittleren Lasten den zweiten und dritten Zylinder vorübergehend still, das spart Treibstoff. Unter den reinen Verbrennern ist der Audi Q3 SUV TFSI mit 2,0 Liter-Vierzylinder, Siebengang S tronic, quattro Antrieb und 195 kW (265 PS) das Spitzenaggregat. Besonders für Langstrecken geeignet ist der Audi Q3 SUV TDI mit 110 kW (150 PS), Vorderradantrieb und serienmäßiger Siebengang S tronic. Ich selbst bin seit einiger Zeit ein Fan von Plug-in-Hybriden, seit deren rein elektrische Reichweite gewachsen ist. So wie beim Audi Q3 SUV e-hybrid mit 200 kW (272 PS) Systemleistung, 400 Nm Systemdrehmoment und einer erwarteten elektrischen Reichweite von bis zu 119 Kilometern im WLTP-Zyklus. Und: Im Gegensatz zu vielen früher angebotenen Plug-in-Hybriden diverser Hersteller, die nur langsam laden konnten und die das Nachladen unterwegs zu einer stundenlangen Geduldsprobe machten, kann der Audi Q3 SUV e-hybrid 200 kW bei idealen Voraussetzungen bis zu 50 kW DC-Schnellladen. Eine bis auf zehn Prozent entladene Batterie ist so in weniger als einer halben Stunde wieder auf 80 Prozent geladen. Das erlaubt auch komfortables Reisen mit elektrischem Antrieb. Die Kosten!Audi beginnt im Oktober dieses Jahres mit der Markteinführung, bestellbar ist der neue Q3 bereits ab dem Sommer. Den Audi Q3 SUV TFSI 110 kW (150 PS) wird in Deutschland zu einem Einstiegspreis ab 44.600 Euro geben. Der Preis für den aus meiner Sicht besonders interessanten Plug-in-Hybriden mit 200 kW (272 PS) beginnt bei 49.300 Euro. Das wäre meine Wahl.

Wismo Group, importøren af bl.a. Peugeot og Opel, fyrer op under leasingmarkedet med fire stærke elbiler og priser, der skubber til hele balancen i mellemklassen. Samtidig kan Bilradio løfte sløret for de første leasingpriser på Zeekr. Bilradio handler i denne uge om det måske mest aggressive leasingfremstød, vi har set i år. Wismo Group vender tilbage med ild i øjnene og et arsenal af tilbud, der skal få selv etablerede elbilfavoritter til at se sig i bakspejlet. Der er tilbud over hele linjen – fra den lille Peugeot E-208 til E-2008, Opel Frontera og de større Peugeot E-3008 GT og Opel Grandland Electric – med god rækkevidde og solidt udstyr til omkring 3.000 kr. om måneden. Jan Lang kalder det "nogle af de bedste tilbud lige nu". Og tallene bakker op: Privatleasing udgør nu 39 procent af alle nye biler. Bilradio kan også løfte sløret for de første privatleasingpriser på den meget omtalte Zeekr 7X – elbilen med nærmest ekstrem ladeevne.

Wenn die Löwenmarke Peugeot, die unterdessen zum großen Stellantis-Reich gehört, neue Produkte auf den Markt bringt, lohnt es sich immer, genauer hinzuschauen. Aktuell gilt das besonders für Familien mit sechs oder sieben Familienmitgliedern. Denn der neue Peugeot E-5008 ist das erste Elektrofahrzeug in diesem Segment mit sieben Sitzen! Darum geht es diesmal!Peugeot hat das Ziel, zu 100 Prozent eine elektrische Marke zu werden. Und so wird auch das Produktangebot ausgebaut. Da man auch hier alle Eventualitäten abdecken will – also auch den Bedarf von sieben Sitzplätzen – gibt es jetzt den Peugeot E-5008. Er ist in seinem Segment das einzige Modell, das zu 100 Prozent elektrische Mobilität für sieben Passagiere bietet und zudem einen außergewöhnlich großzügigen und einladenden Innenraum mitbringt. Power und Drive! Bei uns werden aktuell als rein elektrische Versionen eine mit 157 kW (213 PS) und einer 73-kWh-Batterie sowie eine Long Range Variante mit 170 kW (231 PS) und 97-kWh-Batterie angeboten. Uns stand die 157 kW (213 PS) Ausführung als GT zum Test zur Verfügung. Leistungsmäßig sprechen wir hier von einer Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 170 km/h und einer Beschleunigung von 0–100 km/h in 9,7 Sekunden. Die stärkere Version beschleunigt eine Zehntelsekunde schneller. Ich würde allerdings die stärkere Version bevorzugen, da deren kombinierte Reichweite mit maximal 674 Kilometern die 157 kW (213 PS) Ausführung bei geringfügig höherem Energieverbrauch um gut 170 Kilometer übertrumpft. Die Spreizung liegt hier zwischen 18,8 und 19,4 kWh/100 km (WLTP). Auch in der Ladedauer von 20 auf 80 % an einer DC 160-kW-Schnellladestation hat die stärkere Version mit 27 gegenüber 30 Minuten die Nase vorn. Das wäre mir den Aufpreis von rund 4.000, - Euro wert. Die Kosten!Schon die günstigere Allure Ausstattung überzeugt. Der GT punktet zudem unter anderem durch die D-Navigation mit vernetzten Navigationsdiensten von TomTom® und EV-Routing-Funktion mit Ladeplanung. Und das ist nur eines von vielen zusätzlichen Ausstattungsfeatures. In der günstigeren Allure-Ausstattung kostet der Peugeot E-5008 ab 51.150 Euro, als GT geht es bei 55.400, -- Euro los, die Long Range Variante kostet ab 55.250,-- und als GT ab 59.700, -- Euro. Die Verbesserung der schon sehr guten Allure Ausstattung und vor allem der Reichweitengewinn würden es mich leicht machen, den Peugeot E-5008 als GT in der Long Range Variante zu ordern.

Esto es un extracto de la retransmisión en directo de las 24 Horas de Le Mans 2025 Entrevistamos a Óscar Sánchez, director de Marketing de Total Energies España, para explicar el papel de Total Energies en Le Mans y profundizar en innovación, competición, sostenibilidad y pasión por el automovilismo. Significado de Le Mans para Total Energies Sánchez describe Le Mans como un “símbolo de resistencia, innovación y trabajo en equipo” y, sobre todo, como “estar en casa”. Total Energies aprovecha la prueba para poner a prueba sus soluciones energéticas en condiciones extremas. La compañía es “socio energético” tanto de las 24 Horas como del WEC: suministra el biocombustible Excellium Racing 100 a todos los coches del campeonato y refuerza su presencia este año con una gran exhibición de cartelería y vehículos históricos en el paddock. TotalEnergies busca, por un lado, notoriedad ante pilotos, equipos, profesionales y aficionados, y por otro, posicionarse como un actor clave en la transición energética. Le Mans es “una plataforma estratégica” para conectar con una audiencia global apasionada por el motor, cada vez más consciente del impacto ambiental. Sánchez relaciona ese mensaje con la realidad técnica: en los hypercars actuales conviven motores térmicos (potencias > 500 kW y hasta 900 CV) con sistemas híbridos, y Total Energies suministra la energía —fósil y renovable— que los impulsa. Excellium Racing 100: biocombustible oficial del WEC – Carburante 100 % sostenible, certificado bajo el sistema de “balance de masa” de la UE. – Formulado a partir de biometanol derivado de residuos vinícolas (orujo y hollejos de uva). – Rinde igual que un combustible fósil, pero reduce un 65 % las emisiones de GEI según la metodología europea RED II/REV 2. – Debutó oficialmente en 2022 en las 1000 Millas de Sebring; desde entonces lo usan todos los coches del WEC y, por tanto, de Le Mans. Lubricantes de competición y transferencia a la calle Total Energies desarrolla los aceites en paralelo al diseño de cada motor. Deben proporcionar “estabilidad térmica” y refrigeración continua durante 24 horas. El ejemplo citado es el lubricante especial para el Peugeot 9X8, cuya base y aditivación se inspiran en el Quartz INEO RTP 5W-30 que se vende para turismos PSA. El proceso habitual: laboratorio → pista → vehículo de serie. Alianza con Alpine La relación con el grupo Renault supera los 25 años. Total Energies suministra combustible y lubricantes a los dos prototipos A424 de Alpine en Hypercar, comparte visión de “acelerar la transición energética sin comprometer rendimiento” y se muestra convencida de que la marca luchará pronto por la victoria absoluta. Alianza con Peugeot y el grupo Stellantis La colaboración con Peugeot (y, por extensión, Stellantis) cumple 30 años: Total Energies participa en los bancos de pruebas de motores desde la fase de diseño, homologa productos y suministra lubricantes como Quartz INEO Xtra First 0W-20, orientados a eficiencia, menor consumo y reducción de CO₂. El paraguas actual es la sostenibilidad: cada nuevo producto se diseña para la transición energética. Laboratorio móvil y progreso tecnológico Sánchez remarca que Le Mans es “el laboratorio de innovación móvil” donde se ensayan soluciones que luego llegarán a los coches de calle. Ejemplo: la adopción de biocombustibles y aceites de base regenerada tras superar las exigencias de la FIA y el ACO. TotalEnergies desea una noche inolvidable, con menos CO₂ y ninguna concesión en velocidad.

Der neue Subaru Forester tritt in seiner sechsten Fahrzeuggeneration in die großen Fußstapfen seiner Vorgänger. Er verkörpert weiterhin den Traum vom grenzenlosen Fahrvergnügen wie kaum ein anderes Modell – auch optisch. Die aktuell 4,67 Meter lange Neuauflage ist drei Zentimeter länger und 1,5 Zentimeter breiter als ihr Vorgänger, das verleiht dem SUV ein sportlich-robustes Aussehen. Darum geht es diesmal!Also: Da bekanntlich aller guten Dinge drei sind, sind sechs somit doppelt so gut wie drei. Das Subaru-SUV Forester ist in seine sechste Modellgeneration gestartet, also muss er ja doppelt so gut sein wie die dritte und sechsmal so gut wie die erste. Doch lassen wir das Philosophieren, schauen wir mal, was dieser neue Subaru Forester zu bieten hat. Immerhin wurden seit seiner Markteinführung im Jahr 1997 mehr als fünf Millionen Fahrzeuge weltweit verkauft. Power und Drive! Zu den zahlreichen Neuerungen der sechsten Fahrzeuggeneration gehört, dass unter der Motorhaube nun ein 100 kW/136 PS starker 2,0-Liter-Boxerbenziner arbeitet, der durch das Mildhybrid-System e-Boxer von einem kleinen Elektromotor unterstützt wird. Die Kraftübertragung erfolgt durch eine verbesserte stufenlose Lineartronic Automatik über den permanenten Allradantrieb Symmetrical AWD an alle vier Räder. Die Kombination mit dem erweiterten Allrad-Assistenzsystem X-MODE garantiert Traktion selbst in schwierigem Gelände. Der Boxerbenziner mit Mildhybrid-System entwickelt nun aus zwei Litern Hubraum 100 kW/136 PS und 182 Nm Drehmoment, er wird durch einen kleinen Elektromotor mit zusätzlichen 12 kW/17 PS Leistung und 66 Nm Drehmoment unterstützt. Tempo Hundert wird in 12,2 Sekunden erreicht, die Höchstgeschwindigkeit liegt bei 188 km/h. Das Zusammenspiel zwischen Verbrennungs- und Elektromotor erfolgt je nach Fahrsituation automatisch. Aus diesem Zusammenspiel ergibt sich ein Normverbrauch von 8,1 Litern je 100 Kilometer, entsprechend CO2-Emissionen von 183 g/km. Im EV-Betrieb ist sogar ein rein elektrischer Kurztrip möglich. Die Kosten!Den aktuellen Forester gibt es ab 40.490, -- Euro, dafür bekommt man die Trend-Ausstattung. Schon hier findet sich die Neuauflage von fortschrittlichen Konnektivitäts- und Sicherheitssystemen, darunter ein erweitertes Eyesight-System mit zwölf neuen bzw. verbesserten Funktionen. Über Active und Exklusive geht es dann weiter bis zum Platinum. Der startet dann bei 49.190, – Euro. Auf der ausgesprochen kurzen Optionsliste finden sich lediglich zwei Sonderlackierungen für 780 Euro bzw. 890 Euro. Übrigens überzeugt jede Ausstattungsstufe für sich, ich kann es aus Zeitgründen nicht aufzählen. Sie müssen mir einfach glauben.

Im aktuellen Podcast hatte ich Dr. Michael Ruf zu Gast – President of European Market bei SuperPanther. Ein Name, der in Europa bislang noch nicht vielen geläufig sein dürfte, im Nutzfahrzeugbereich aber für einiges an Bewegung sorgen könnte. Denn SuperPanther hat ambitionierte Pläne: Der Hersteller aus China will bis 2030 rund 16.000 vollelektrische LKWs mit eigener Technologie auf europäische Straßen bringen – und das mit einem Mix aus lokaler Fertigung, datengetriebenem Energiemanagement und direktem Kundenkontakt. Die Basis dafür liefert ein Truck, der bereits in China im Einsatz ist. Dort wurde vor rund einem Jahr der erste E-LKW in Serie gebracht – eine schwere Zugmaschine mit 6x4-Konfiguration. Für Europa wird das Modell auf eine 4x2-Ausführung umgebaut. Die technische Entwicklung läuft vollständig in China, doch für den europäischen Markteintritt setzt man auf starke Partner: „Die Technologie kommt von uns, die Fertigung übernimmt Steyr Automotive in Österreich“, so Michael Ruf. Diese Kombination aus Hightech und Erfahrung soll Qualität und Verlässlichkeit garantieren. Beeindruckend ist vor allem die Detailtiefe, mit der SuperPanther das Gesamtsystem optimiert hat: Zwei Elektromotoren mit zusammen rund 500 kW Dauerleistung, ein durchgängig konstruiertes Achsgehäuse, Silizium-Carbid-Inverter mit Soft-Switching-Technologie, ein dreistufiges Thermomanagementsystem mit Wärmepumpe bis minus 30 Grad. Das spart nicht nur Energie – „Wir brauchen bis zu 60 Prozent weniger für Heizung und Kühlung“, sagt Ruf – sondern bringt auch bis zu 15 Prozent mehr Reichweite. Im Praxiseinsatz soll der Truck bis zu 500 Kilometer schaffen, Tendenz steigend. Die Batterie fasst über 600 kWh, geladen wird mit High Power Charging und perspektivisch auch per Megawatt-Charging. Ruf relativiert jedoch: „Die meisten Kunden brauchen das gar nicht – sie wollen lieber verlässlich und effizient laden, auch mal mit 50 kW, wenn's passt.“ Neben der Hardware hebt SuperPanther vor allem die Softwarekompetenz hervor. Da sämtliche Komponenten selbst entwickelt wurden, kann der Verbrauch in Echtzeit optimiert werden – sowohl fahrerunabhängig als auch durch personalisierte Anpassung. Erste Tests mit Kunden zeigten: „Wir haben die Verbrauchswerte von 1,3 auf 1,05 kWh pro Kilometer senken können – bei voll beladenem LKW.“ Ein Knackpunkt im Nutzfahrzeugmarkt ist das Thema Vertrauen. Ruf ist sich dessen bewusst: „Als neue Marke müssen wir mehr tun als andere – vor allem beim Service.“ Geplant sind ein zentrales Ersatzteillager, Vorhaltung von Teilen in Servicezentren und sogar Ersatztrucks im Fall der Fälle. Zudem setzt man auf Predictive Maintenance – inklusive DSGVO-konformer Datenspeicherung auf europäischen Servern. Auch beim Preis positioniert sich SuperPanther differenziert. Man wolle nicht Dumping betreiben, sondern ein attraktives Gesamtpaket anbieten – inklusive Ökosystem mit eigener Ladeinfrastruktur und optionaler Energiegewinnung. Der Vertrieb erfolgt direkt, mit enger Kundenbindung und individuellen Lösungen. „Wir wollen, dass unsere Kunden sagen: Das war gut gelöst.“ Der Serienstart in Europa ist für Mitte 2026 vorgesehen, erste Märkte sind Deutschland, Österreich und die Schweiz. Doch auch andere Länder seien denkbar – immer in Abhängigkeit vom Kundeninteresse. „Wenn einer aus Schweden kommt, machen wir es möglich.“ Und die europäische Variante wird dann sogar weiterentwickelt sein als die erste chinesische Version: „Die Kabine ist hochwertiger, die E-Achse leistungsfähiger – wir entwickeln kontinuierlich weiter.“ Nun aber genug der Vorrede – lasst uns direkt ins Gespräch mit Dr. Michael Ruf einsteigen.
Zeekr og Xpeng presser grænserne for lynladning, og BMW melder sig nu ind i kampen med Neue Klasse og 800 volt-teknik. Samtidig viser nye rapporter, at elbilejere risikerer dyre reparationer, når garantien udløber. Ugens Bilradio dykker ned i elbilens lyse og mørke sider – og alt det indimellem. Der var engang, hvor opladning af en elbil var noget, man planlagde sin frokostpause omkring. Nu går det så stærkt, at man knap når at bestille en flat white, før batteriet er fyldt. I spidsen for det nye elektriske kapløb står Zeekr og Xpeng – to kinesiske mærker, der har forvandlet ladetid til teknologisk prestige. Zeekr 7X chokerede forleden hele branchen med en ladetid på 14 minutter og 46 sekunder fra 10 til 80 procent. Men før nyheden nåede at bundfælde sig, kom Xpeng buldrende med 525 kW ladeeffekt – den højeste nogensinde i Danmark. Det svarer til at lade fra 10 til 80 procent på 12 minutter. Og mens Europa så småt har ladet kineserne tage føringen, er BMW nu klar til at svare igen. Den kommende BMW iX3, bygget på den nye Neue Klasse-platform, lover 400 kW lynladning, 800 km rækkevidde og et digitalt cockpit, der skal bringe München tilbage i front. Men elbilverdenen handler ikke kun om fremtiden og fart over feltet. Det handler også om dem, der allerede har købt. Og for mange elbilejere melder problemerne sig nu, hvor garantien er udløbet. Bremser, PTC-varmere, software og selv elmotorer fejler – og regninger på op til 100.000 kr. er ikke længere undtagelsen.

Auto - Rund ums Auto. Fahrberichte, Gespräche und Informationen
Wer sich schon länger mit der spanischen Automobilmarke Seat beschäftigt der weiß, dass es eine Zeitlang Seat-Fahrzeuge gab, die den Beinamen Cupra trugen. Also beispielsweise Seat Ibiza Cupra. Die Fahrzeuge waren in der Regel stärker motorisiert und auch optisch sportlicher. Diese Fahrzeuge waren so gefragt, dass man eine eigene Marke daraus gemacht hat. So gibt es den Leon Sportstourer sowohl von Seat, als auch von Cupra. Und genau den stellen wir heute vor. Darum geht es diesmal!Anfang 2018 hat Seat die Marke Cupra in den Markt eingeführt, was sich mittlerweile als ausgesprochen gute Idee darstellt. Der Name Cupra ist übrigens eine Abkürzung für „Cup Racer“ und steht eben für eine ausgesprochen sportliche Erscheinung, was sich allerdings auch unter der Haube und im Fahrverhalten fortsetzt. Wir haben uns einmal den Cupra Leon Sportstourer VZ 1.5 e-HYBRID angeschaut. Power und Drive! Also eines vorweg. Leistung hat dieser Leon Sportstourer in Hülle und Fülle. Das Triebwerk des Plug-in-Hybriden hat eine Systemleistung von 200 kW (272 PS), das reicht für einen Spurt auf Tempo 100 in 7,1 Sekunden, maximal sind 229 km/h drin. Die rein elektrische Reichweite liegt übrigens im kombinierten Fahrzyklus bei 125 Kilometern, im Stadtverkehr sind sogar maximal 154 Kilometer drin. Das ist nun wirklich ausreichend. Ist man rein mit dem Benziner unterwegs, kommt man im Mix mit 5,5 Litern 100 Kilometer weit. Erfreulich ist, dass die Batterie nicht nur zu Hause mit einer 11-kW-Wallbox aufgeladen werden kann, sondern unterwegs mit bis zu 50 kW an einer Schnelladesäule in 26 Minuten von 10 auf 80%. Natürlich verfügt der neue CUPRA Leon Sportstourer über eine breite Palette an Sicherheits- und Komfortfunktionen. Dazu gehören die automatische Geschwindigkeitsregelung (ACC), Travel Assist, Side Assist und der Notfallassistent. Zudem kann das ACC-System das Fahrzeug auf der Grundlage von Routen- und GPS-Daten des Navigationssystems verorten und seine Geschwindigkeit entsprechend der Straßenführung – Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen, Kurven, Kreisverkehre, Kreuzungen und bebaute Gebiete – korrigieren. Frontkamera und Verkehrszeichenerkennung erlauben eine Geschwindigkeitsanpassung. Und der Travel Assist nutzt die Informationen von ACC und Spurhalteassistent, um die Geschwindigkeit an den Verkehrsfluss anzupassen.Die Kosten!Den Cupra Leon Sporttourer gibt es in einer Preisrange von 38.650, -- Euro bis 61.626, -- Euro. Für den Plug-in- Hybriden sind – je nach Ausstattungslinie – 50.550, -- Euro bzw. 57.300, -- Euro fällig. Die sind allerdings im Preis-Leistungsverhältnis absolut angemessen.

Kia's Carnival might be better known as Sedona in the United States. However, as the brand launched its minivan's fourth generation back in 2020, Kia pivoted the van to its Korean Domestic name: Carnival. For '25, Kia gave its Carnival a once-over – updated styling and a new powertrain. Kia moved the license plate mount a little lower and added a dark edition to the lineup. More importantly, Kia also added a hybrid powertrain to the Carnival. This hybrid system blends a 1.6-liter turbocharged I4 with a 54 kW electric motor and a six-speed automatic transmission. Kia says that this hybrid Carnival is good for 242 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque and 33 mpg combined. The 3.5-liter V6 is still available for those who want extra displacement, which makes 287 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek executive editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of the '25 Kia Carnival and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of the '25 Carnival and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Murphy takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the Carnival, minivans in the marketplace, and more. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the Carnival special.

As the world transitions toward renewable energy sources, geothermal power has emerged as one of the most promising, yet underutilized, options in the clean energy portfolio. Unlike solar and wind, geothermal offers consistent baseload power generation capacity without intermittency challenges, making it an increasingly attractive component in the renewable energy mix. The geothermal sector has shown increasing potential in recent years, with technological innovations expanding its possible applications beyond traditional volcanic regions. These advances are creating opportunities to tap into moderate-temperature resources that were previously considered uneconomical, potentially unlocking gigawatts of clean, renewable power across the globe. It's within this expanding landscape that companies like Gradient Geothermal are pioneering new approaches. As a guest on The POWER Podcast, Ben Burke, CEO of Gradient Geothermal, outlined his company's innovative approach to geothermal energy extraction that could transform how we think about energy recovery from oil and gas operations. Modular and Mobile Geothermal Solutions Gradient Geothermal differentiates itself in the geothermal marketplace through its focus on modular, portable equipment designed specifically for oil field operations, geothermal operators, and potentially data centers. Unlike traditional geothermal installations that require permanent infrastructure, Gradient's equipment can be moved every six to 18 months as needed, allowing clients to adjust their thermal capacity by adding or removing units as requirements change. “The advantage of mobility and modularity is really important to oil and gas operators,” Burke said. The company's solution consists of two main components: an off-the-shelf organic Rankine cycle (ORC) unit and a primary heat exchanger loop. This system can handle various ratios of oil, gas, and water—even “dirty” water containing sand, brines, and minerals—and convert that heat into usable power. One of the most compelling aspects of Gradient's technology is its ease of installation. “Installation takes one day,” Burke explained. “It's two pipes and three wires, and it's able to sit on a gravel pad or sit on trailers.” This quick setup contrasts sharply with traditional geothermal plants that can take years to construct. The units come in three sizes: 75 kW, 150 kW, and 300 kW. The modular nature allows for flexible configurations, with units able to be connected in series or parallel to handle varying water volumes and temperatures.

Trey Wasser, CEO and Director of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF), joins me to outline the recent drill assay that intersected bonanza-grade gold in the new hanging wall discovery from deeper drilling at the Elora Gold System. In addition to all the targets along the Elora trend, we also discuss new geological understanding and work initiatives at the Big Master, Mud Lake, and Mosher Bay Areas of the Gold Rock Camp at the onset of this year's 15,000 meter drill program. We also discuss exploration programs for later in the year at both the Sherridon, and Hyndman areas across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada. Drill assays for this newly intercepted hanging wall gold mineralization in hole KW-25-003 Assays have now confirmed results of 301.67 g/t gold over 3.90 meters including 1,930 g/t gold over 0.60 meters with folded quartz stringer veins hosted in sheared basalts. This hanging wall zone is approximately 80 meters from the main Jubilee high-grade zone at a true depth of 250 meters. We discuss the exploration plans for multiple targets at Elora for this year like around the historic Laurentian Mine and the Intersection target. Trey also outlines how a new interpretation of a 3rd deformation structure (D3) with folding in the geological structure creates a good trap for the gold fluids. This new understanding will assist with going back and drilling the hanging wall structure, and also the historic high-grade mineralization over at Big Master, in addition to at Mud Lake. This complex geological data is further evidence that the Dryden District hosts a strong Archean lode gold system like the Red Lake, Kirkland Lake, and Timmins Districts. Wrapping up we look ahead to the more drilling coming from across the Gold Rock Camp, plus ongoing work programs at both the Sherridon, and Hyndman areas across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada. If you have any questions for Trey regarding Dryden Gold, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com. In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Dryden Gold at the time of this recording.

When wildfire threatens neighbourhoods with closely-spaced homes, what determines whether flames leap from one structure to the next? The FSRI research team - Rebekah Schrader, Joseph Willi, Daniel Gorham and Gavin Horn - joins us to unveil their experimental series that methodically dissects the pathways through which fire spreads between buildings.The team walks us through their massive outdoor experimental setup, where they created controlled compartment fires and measured their impact on adjacent walls and windows at various separation distances. They discovered that even non-combustible exterior cladding like fiber cement board won't necessarily protect a home when the underlying sheathing is combustible—especially at close distances where heat fluxes reach a staggering 75-125 kW/m².Windows emerge as perhaps the most vulnerable component, with their research revealing dramatic differences in performance between glass types. Double-pane tempered glass significantly outperforms plain glass configurations, but the surprising finding was how much window frame materials matter. In one experiment, vinyl frames completely failed while the glass was still intact, causing entire window assemblies to drop from the wall.Another aspect of their research are the measurements of the heat transfer through intact windows. Using specialized measurements, they found that significant radiant heat penetrates even unbroken windows, potentially igniting curtains or furniture inside before the window itself fails. Low-emissivity coatings proved remarkably effective at reducing this heat transfer.This research offers crucial insights for homeowners, fire safety engineers, and policymakers working to create more resilient communities. The findings extend beyond wildland fire applications, providing valuable data for urban fire safety engineering across multiple contexts.Find the research papers at:https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/fam.3278https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10694-024-01685-8https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10694-024-01656-zAnd additional resources at:https://fsri.org/research-update/journal-article-reports-heat-transfer-through-different-window-constructionshttps://fsri.org/research-update/journal-article-investigates-role-residential-siding-materials-spread-exterior----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens is joined by Jay Kinder and Andrew Lafountain for a no-holds-barred deep dive into what's happening right now in the real estate industry—and where it's all heading. From Rocket's acquisition of Redfin to leadership shifts at top brokerages, the guys unpack the chaos, opportunities, and strategy agents need to understand if they want to stay ahead in 2025 and beyond. This episode is part market analysis, part future forecasting, and 100% real talk from top industry leaders who've seen it all—and are still leading from the front. Key Topics Covered Redfin, Rocket & the Race to the Bottom Why Rocket acquired Redfin—and what they're really after (hint: not the agents). Redfin's failed bet on low-fee, low-skill agent models. Why consumers ultimately don't want cheap—they want value. What this move signals about the future of real estate portals and tech platforms. The Legacy Brokerage Shakeup Why franchise models (KW, Anywhere, Berkshire) are struggling to evolve. Lawsuits, territorial issues, and brand dilution. The difference between iconic brands and actual value propositions in today's market. Why the agent—not the company—is the brand now. Cloud-Based Brokerages: Who's Winning & Why How eXp navigated 20K–80K agent growth profitably—a feat unmatched in the industry. The co-sponsorship game-changer and what it unlocks for agent partnerships. Why most “me-too” cloud brokerages will fail (and some already are). What sets eXp's leadership apart: Leo Pareja and Glenn Sanford's agility, vision, and agent-first focus. Real's Leadership Shift & What It Reveals The abrupt exit of Sharran Srivatsaa from day-to-day operations. Why losing a charismatic visionary can signal deeper cracks. Why copycat models without culture or core values can't scale sustainably. The hard truth: Without operational excellence, fast growth leads to faster breakdowns. Actionable Takeaways Don't be seduced by legacy brands—they don't control the customer experience you do. As a cloud brokerage, operational excellence at scale is the new battleground. Align yourself with a platform that evolves fast, values agents, and puts your growth first. Pay attention to leadership exits—it's often a signal of turbulence ahead. If you've been sitting on the sidelines, now is the time to move—before the next wave explodes. Resources Mentioned eXp Realty – The platform powering agent-first success.
