Anna Baydakova discusses Russia's dramatic shift toward Bitcoin, covering mining legalization, the crypto exodus, sanctions impact, and how Russians use Bitcoin to survive economic isolation and preserve wealth amid political repression. Anna Baydakova, Senior Reporter at CoinDesk joins us to talk about Russia's complex relationship with Bitcoin. From Putin's surprising embrace of crypto mining to the grey market of mining rig distribution, Anna reveals how sanctions transformed Russia's crypto landscape. We explore Siberian mining operations and why Russians increasingly turn to Bitcoin as both protest and preservation against an authoritarian regime.

UK diesel prices just jumped after fresh US/UK sanctions targeting Russian oil producers — and the knock-on could be big. In this week's UK Energy Show, we break down the two-tier oil market (sanctioned barrels stuck “on the water” vs freely traded supply), why diesel is the pressure point, and how Lukoil's asset sale and Petrofac's collapse play into UK energy, jobs, and prices. We also dig into North Sea politics (Rosebank & Jackdaw), the Tony Blair Institute's call to slow the 2030 clean-energy push, and why electricity stays high when gas is ~6p/kWh but power caps at ~26p/kWh. What you'll learnHow tougher secondary sanctions can squeeze legal supply and lift UK dieselWhy India's pivot to non-Russian barrels tightens the “free” marketThe real-world impact: pump prices, logistics costs, and your weekly shopLukoil (refinery sales) & Petrofac (administration): signals vs realitiesBrent vs dated Brent: the price that actually matters for North Sea flowsRosebank/Jackdaw economics, Equinor's role, and UK competitiveness #UKEnergy #DieselPrices #OilMarket #Sanctions #Lukoil #Petrofac #Brent #NorthSea #CostOfLiving #FuelHedging

While everyone's focused on NIO's 70-day countdown to profitability, institutional money started moving. RWC Asset Management just disclosed they bought $14.5 million worth of NIO shares in Q3 2025, scaling their position from $100,000 to over $20 million - a 200X increase.What do they see that made them go all-in right now?In today's episode, I break down three major NIO developments from October 27, 2025:RWC's $14.5M Bet:Purchased 2.7 million shares during Q3 2025Position grew from ~$100K to $20.83 millionNow represents 1.01% of their $2 billion portfolioRWC's portfolio is mostly mature value plays (Macy's, HP, Cisco) - NIO stands outThey bought DURING the turnaround, not before it (Q3 = July-Sept when momentum became obvious)90 Million Battery Swaps Milestone:NIO hit 90 million swaps just 100 days after 80 millionNow performing 100,000+ battery swaps per dayFirst 1 million swaps took 29 months, latest 10 million took 100 days (acceleration)4.75 billion kWh dispensed = enough to power 2.37 million households for a year100 millionth swap expected January 2026This infrastructure creates a moat that gets stronger with scaleUS Demand Survey Results:Over 50% of US buyers now open to Chinese EV brands like NIO and BYDDespite significant data privacy concerns and government scrutinyShows product-market fit exists, but regulatory/political barriers remainNot an actionable catalyst for 2025-2026, but signals latent demandThe Investment Thesis:RWC isn't waiting for Q4 profitability to be achieved - they're positioning BEFORE the announcement. If you wait until NIO reports a profitable quarter, the stock will already be repriced. They're buying the setup, not the result.But let's be clear: RWC put 1% of their portfolio into this. That's not "bet the farm" conviction. That's "attractive risk-reward given the setup" conviction. As Motley Fool notes, "NIO remains a risky stock to own. Investors should treat it as a speculative bet."What We're Actually Betting On:✅ Three-brand strategy execution (working so far)⏳ Production scaling to 15K ES8/month by December (in progress)⏳ Q4 profitability target (70 days to find out)❓ Sustained profitability beyond Q4 (the real test)What I'm Watching:November delivery numbers (October results due early Nov)ES8 production updates (need 15K/month by December)More institutional 13F filings showing Q3 positionsBattery swap daily volume trendsThis is news-driven analysis for investors who want to understand what's happening beyond the headlines. I'm long NIO, but I'm not here to pump or spread fear - just breaking down what the smart money is doing and what it means.NIO stock is up 58.3% year-to-date as of October 24, 2025, trading at $6.90 with a $17 billion market cap.

Totex co-founder Berlin Raj joins Eric and “Overkill Bill” to unpack a single-box, hydronic monoblock system that combines space conditioning, domestic hot water, pool heating, thermal + lithium storage, EV charging integration, and backup power. Born from Berlin's lifelong tinkering (and many shocks), the idea: stop wasting condenser heat—capture it for hot water while cooling. The system keeps all refrigerant sealed in the outdoor unit and runs PEX supply/return to indoor air handlers (ducted or ductless), avoiding field flares and refrigerant line runs. Install looks familiar—set the pad, pipe PEX, fill a glycol loop, wire power/control—yet it adds clever tricks: load matching from ~1.5–6 tons, dynamic load limiting for small panels (even ~20–30A circuits), modular thermal storage (~100 kWh cooling / ~55 kWh heating), a ~10.5 kWh lithium pack, and app/10" touchscreen controls over Modbus with hooks for BMS and home automation. In cooling-plus-hot-water mode, field tests show very high effective COP (Berlin cites “9+”) because the unit harvests both sides of the cycle. Engineered for residential and light commercial (think houses, small offices, QSRs), the unit can supply hot water up to ~165°F, support radiant/underfloor at lower temps, operate down to about -7.6°F, and be manifolded for capacity and redundancy. Texas is the target U.S. beachhead (long cooling seasons = months of “free” hot water), with pilots in Australia and U.S. pilots planned; broader availability is aimed for mid to late next year. Berlin's closing note? “People, people, people”—comfort and outcomes start with humans. Notable Quotes: “Why dump condenser heat when you can use it? Cool the house and make hot water at the same time.” — Berlin Raj “Dynamic load balancing means a heat pump that plays nice with a 100-amp panel.” — Eric Kaiser (paraphrased) “People, people, people. Comfort is ultimately about humans first.” — Berlin Raj   Berlin on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/berlinrajm/ Totex website: https://www.totexenergy.com/ Come visit with Berin in person at the www.USHeatPumpSummit.com     This episode was recorded in September 2025.  

Volksfest der Zerstörung – Kühltürme von Gundremmingen fliegen in die Luft Heute werden in Gundremmingen die Kühltürme des einst stärksten bayerischen Kernkraftwerks gesprengt. Aus 20 Mrd. kWh pro Jahr werden 700 MWh Batterie – drei Promille Restvernunft. Deutschland feiert den Abriss seiner Kraftwerke wie Volksfeste, ein Metzger verkauft „Sprengwurst“. Während China & USA neue Reaktoren bauen, sprengt Deutschland seine in die Luft. Der Knall von Gundremmingen - Symbol eines Energie-Voodoo, der Wohlstand in Schutt legt. Merkel beschloss das Ende, Habeck verhinderte die Rückkehr, Söder schaut zu – und Bayern feiert. Hexensabbat auf den Schuttbergen: Deutschland tanzt um seine Trümmer und nennt das Fortschritt. Aus Ingenieurskunst wird Ideologie, aus Energie wird Event. Deutschland zerstört, was es stark gemacht hat. Ein Gespräch mit Kraftwerksingenieur Frank Hennig. Webseite: https://www.tichyseinblick.de

Mazda da un salto serio hacia la electrificación con el nuevo Mazda 6e, una gran berlina de casi cinco metros de largo —4,92 para ser exactos— que combina elegancia, tecnología y una puesta a punto muy cuidada. Es, además, el primer eléctrico de la marca con vocación de volumen real en Europa. Llega derivado del modelo chino EZ-6, fruto de la colaboración entre Mazda y Changan, aunque con una configuración específica para el mercado europeo, adaptada en suspensión, confort y sensaciones al volante. En definitiva, un coche que quiere ser tanto un escaparate de diseño como una alternativa refinada dentro del segmento de las berlinas eléctricas. En cuanto a diseño, el Mazda 6e mantiene la personalidad y el estilo fluido que caracteriza a la marca, pero lo lleva a un terreno más tecnológico. Tiene una silueta tipo liftback, con portón trasero y un alerón retráctil que se despliega automáticamente por encima de 90 km/h. La parrilla delantera, completamente cerrada, se ilumina con una franja LED que incluso puede indicar el estado de carga del coche. De perfil destacan las llantas de 19 pulgadas y una proporción muy equilibrada, con casi un metro y medio de altura. Es un coche que, simplemente al verlo, transmite elegancia y cierto aire premium sin recurrir a exageraciones. Pero el gran salto está en su sistema eléctrico, y aquí Mazda ha optado por una estrategia poco común: ofrecer dos tecnologías de batería diferentes. La versión de acceso utiliza una batería LFP de 68,8 kWh, más robusta y estable, con unos 479 km de autonomía WLTP; mientras que la versión Long Range recurre a una batería NCM de 80 kWh, más ligera y densa, que eleva la autonomía hasta unos 552 km. Es una elección inteligente: la batería LFP está pensada para quienes cargan habitualmente en casa y buscan durabilidad, y la NCM para los que viajan más y necesitan un plus de alcance. Las potencias también cambian ligeramente: unos 258 caballos en la versión estándar y 245 en la Long Range, con un par máximo de 320 Nm y una aceleración de 0 a 100 km/h en torno a 7,7 segundos. En carga, el Mazda 6e mantiene una buena cifra para el día a día. La versión con batería LFP admite hasta 165 kW en carga rápida, pudiendo pasar del 10 al 80 % en apenas 22 minutos; la Long Range, algo más limitada térmicamente, se queda en unos 90 kW. En carga doméstica, ambas pueden aceptar 11 kW en corriente alterna, lo que significa unas 6-7 horas para una carga completa en un wallbox. Con un consumo medio homologado de unos 16,5 kWh/100 km, y en pruebas reales incluso por debajo de 15, el Mazda 6e promete buena eficiencia para su tamaño. En España, los precios parten de unos 43.700 euros, aunque con descuentos y ayudas del plan MOVES puede quedar por debajo de los 39.000 euros. En resumen: un eléctrico grande, con estilo propio y un planteamiento racional, que ofrece dos formas de entender la movilidad eléctrica sin perder el sello Mazda.

An Taisce Green-Schools is bringing its energy theme back to primary and secondary schools across the country this academic year, thanks to its continued partnership with EirGrid, operator and developer of Ireland's electricity grid. Plans for this year's programme were unveiled at an event in Adamstown Community College, Dublin, with plenty of exciting events due to be held across the country over the coming months to enable young people to expand their awareness around energy conservation. To date, over 3,000 schools have been awarded the energy flag since the beginning of the Green-Schools programme in 1997. In the last academic year, 2,200 students and 123 schools engaged in events including regional workshops consisting of hands-on activities, artwork and experiments, which allowed them to learn more about where electricity comes from and how they can take steps to reduce energy consumption. Speaking at the relaunch, Suzanne Collins, Head of Public Relations with EirGrid, said: "We are once again proud to partner with An Taisce Green-Schools for its energy theme, reaching students in classrooms across the country as they address energy consumption in their schools and communities. "It has been so inspiring to see the engagement in the theme over the last academic year, and shows the impactful steps young people are taking in bringing about sustainable changes in everyday life. "EirGrid is proud to play a continued role in empowering the next generation as they lead the charge in energy awareness." Joanne Scott, Green-Schools Programme Manager, added: "We are delighted to relaunch the Energy Theme to schools, and are thankful that EirGrid's support is allowing us to continue with this fantastic initiative. "From our engagement with students through our previous energy workshops, there is no doubt young people are enthusiastic about leaving a positive impact on their community, and the energy theme provides and invaluable opportunity to empower them to reduce energy consumption and be part of the conversation. "We recently awarded the Green Flag to Scoil Éinne, An Spidéal, for their outstanding work on the energy theme, and we look forward to working alongside more schools as they continue their journey towards achieving their own Green Flag." During the 2023-24 school year, schools saved a combined 18 million kWh of electricity, enough to make 58 million cups of tea, due to their participation in the Green-Schools programme, proving that interest in energy is strong among Ireland's school children.

Beim Kia EV3 handelt es sich um einen vollelektrischen Kompakt-SUV, der Autokäufern, die noch zwischen Verbrenner und E-Auto schwanken, die Entscheidung erleichtern soll. Mit seiner Reichweite, seinem Gepäckraumvolumen und Platzangebot im liegt er im Spitzenbereich des Segments. Wir schauen uns mal an, was er reichweitenmäßig zu bieten hat. Und da kann er schon mit seiner kleineren Batterie überzeugen.  Darum geht es diesmal!Ende 2024 wurde der Kia EV3 eingeführt, er hat natürlich nicht zufällig Gemeinsamkeiten mit dem Kia-Flaggschiff EV9. Und ähnlich wie der große Bruder ist auch der EV3 auf Trophäenjagd. Dazu gehören bereits die Titel „World Car of the Year 2025“, „Goldenes Lenkrad 2024“ (Kategorie „Bestes Auto unter 40.000 Euro“) und nicht zu vergessen die renommierten Designpreise  iF Design Award 2025 und „Red Dot: Best of the Best 2025“, die Topauszeichnung des renommierten Designwettbewerbs. Power und Drive!    Den Kia EV3 gibt es mit zwei verschieden großen Akkuvarianten. Mit 58,3 kWh und mit 81,4 kWh, jeweils als Kraftquelle für den Frontantrieb FWD. Die Leistung beträgt bei beiden Akkuvarianten 150 kW (204 PS), die Reichweite ist natürlich unterschiedlich. 436 Kilometer sind mit der kleineren Batterie drin, bis zu 605 Kilometer mit der größeren. Welche Version für Sie die richtige ist, hängt von Ihren Fahrgewohnheiten ab. Für die Beschleunigung dürfte das aber egal sein, sie liegt zwischen 7,5 und 7,9 Sekunden für den Spurt von 0–100 km/h. Und auch in der Spitze macht es keinen Unterschied, beide sind 170 Kilometer schnell. Selbst für die Ladedauer spielt die Entscheidung keine wirkliche Rolle, bei beiden Varianten lässt sich die Batterie in rund einer halben Stunde von 10 auf 80 Prozent aufladen.   Dass die Fahrweise einen starken Einfluss auf die Reichweite hat, ist klar. Kia hat deshalb einen neuen „Driving Range Guide“ entwickelt. Er zeigt im Kombiinstrument die maximale und minimale Reichweite an, die je nach Fahrstil erreicht werden kann, sowie die geschätzte Reichweite auf der Grundlage des bisherigen Fahrverhaltens. Bei effizienter Fahrweise ist die Anzeige grün.  Die Kosten!Die Preisskala beim KIA EV3 beginnt bei 35.990,00 Euro für die Einstiegsversion Air mit 58,3-kWh-Batterie, 48.690,00 Euro sind für die Topversion GT-Line mit 81,4-kWh-Batterie fällig. Für den Preisunterschied ist natürlich auch die Ausstattung relevant. Die größere Batterie selbst schlägt mit 5.400 Euro zu Buche. Alle Fotos: © Kia Deutschland GmbH    Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Episodio 91 de En Ocasiones Veo Fraudes, el pódcast de FACUA. En el editorial, Rubén Sánchez te habla acerca de la necesidad de una aprobar ley de atención a la clientela que realmente proteja a los consumidores y nos resarza por los perjuicios que nos causan las empresas. Los tres temas de actualidad: la Comunidad de Madrid ha multado a la edición de 2023 del Brava Madrid con 96.000 euros por la imposición de las pulseras cashless como único método de pago, entre otras irregularidades; la Fiscalía de Málaga ha formulado acusación contra el promotor de la fiesta de Torremolinos denunciada por FACUA por negar el acceso a homosexuales; y el Ministerio de Consumo ha atendido la petición de FACUA y realizará una auditoría pública a las asociaciones de consumidores. En Terror en el supermercado, David Ávila te da un mes más los datos sobre la evolución de precios de un millar de productos a la venta en ocho grandes cadenas de supermercados. En Te Ayudamos, Keka Sánchez te explica todo lo que debes saber al viajar en tren acerca de lo que incluye el billete, para evitar sorpresas desagradables con, por ejemplo, el equipaje. En Te puede pasar a ti contamos el caso de Antonio, a quien hemos logrado que le devuelvan 1.343 euros de una factura que le cobraron por un consumo de más de 7.000 kWh que no era real.

A lot of EV charging apps can tell you where the plugs are, and Chargeway tells you that, too — along with everything else. From your EV's state of charge, to the best charging strategy to get you from point A to point B, to real-time charger availability, and more, it's simply the best tool I've found to help new EV drivers understand how an EV fits into their busy lives today. And as of today, in fact, Chargeway is adding another benefit to its platform: real-time kWh pricing. Today's announcement ahead of Electrify Expo Industry Day in New York means that Chargeway Plus subscribers will have access to real-time pricing for more than half the public charging stations in North America, including daily price/kWh rates as well as variable kWh pricing for individual stations within the station details, empowering cost- and grid-conscious EV drivers with the information they need to make a fully informed charging choice. That's not all. In addition to showing the price/kWh for power, Chargeway's unique, patented colors and numbers system makes it easy for drivers to make smart choices, saving themselves time, money, or both — that's something that's especially critical as new EV drivers learn to navigate not just the rapidly evolving EV charging infrastructure, but the widespread rollout of NACS/CCS adapters, as well. "Our mission at Chargeway from day one has been to simplify 'electric fuel' for every driver to help  accelerate EV adoption," said Matt Teske, Chargeway's Founder and CEO. "Now with one tap on the Chargeway station map drivers can easily see what we in the industry know the public must learn: Can I connect my car here? How long will charging take? How many chargers are available? How much will  my charge session cost? With our latest update to Chargeway users can now see 'electric fuel pricing' for thousands of stations at a glance." I had a chance to connect with Matt ahead of Electrify Industry Day to talk about Chargeway's latest feature, and how the transparency of at-a-glance pricing can help demystify public charging. You can watch that interview, above (disclaimer: Matt's been a dear friend of mine and the EV industry as-a-whole for years). Prefer listening to your podcasts? Audio-only versions of Quick Charge are now available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, TuneIn, and our RSS feed for Overcast and other podcast players.

Getting from A to B in an EV isn't as simple as swapping gas for kWh. It is a fundamentally different experience. The companies - CPOs and eMSPs - that serve EV drivers have to navigate a challenging maze to profitability. Gideon van Dijk from chargetrip joins Mike and Kevin to unpack what CPOs must own - digital, physical, and everything in between - to put themselves in a position to succeed in a world of electrified transport. 

Most solar installers miss the biggest opportunity in clean energy today.Jay Marhoefer started Intelligent Generation in 2009, six years before the market was ready.

Driving Renault’s Megane E-Tech SUV – a small French SUV with a difference, setting it apart from the look alike new breed of Chinese electric cars. At $54,990 plus on-road costs more than competitive, cheaper than Volvo’s EX30 and in a way more charming. The styling impressive, hatch like with large 20-inch wheels tucked into the corners. Step inside and it breathes clever design, quality materials and individuality. With a lightweight 60kWh battery feeding a single electric motor driving the front wheels it offers a driving range of 454Km which I found accurate. Relatively light for an electric car with a slim lightweight battery under the floor I found the energy consumption excellent at 14.1 kWh/100km. Electric cars tend to ride harder` due to battery weight – not so for the Megane E-Tech, extremely comfortable helped by great seats although disappointing only with manual adjustment. Welcome five-star safety plus four available drive modes that noticeably change the complexion of the drive, while steering feel is a high point. As I said earlier, it feels more premium in all it does apart from some tyre roar on courser road surfaces. I came away very impressed with this electric Renault Megane – appealingly different and a classy small French SUV.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Year of the Linux Desktop"? Sicher nicht, aber vielleicht "Year of the Open Source Verwaltung" in Schleswig-Holstein. Der erste große Schritt ist getan und das Email-System von Microsoft Exchange und Outlook auf Open-Xchange und Thunderbird umgestellt, auch wenn nicht alles glatt verlief. Der Weg zur digitalen Souveränität ist nicht leicht. aber notwendig und noch lange nicht zu Ende, auch nicht in Schleswig-Holstein. Zu Intel gibt es in letzter Zeit häufiger negative Schlagzeilen oder sehr ambivalente wie die Kooperation mit Nvidia. Dabei sind Intels konkrete Produkte oft gar nicht schlecht oder sogar ziemlich gut, gerade die SoCs für Laptops. Auch Panther Lake sieht vielversprechend aus: Intel kombiniert jeweils einen großen und kleinen CPU- und GPU-Tile (ähnlich der Chiplets bei AMD) dem jeweiligen Einsatzzweck entsprechend. Großer CPU-Tile + großer GPU-Tile für Standalone High-End, großer CPU-Tile + kleiner GPU-Tile (+ dedizierter Grafikchip) für Gaming Laptops und beide kleine Tiles für Standalone Kompakt. Mit Panther Lake feiert auch die neueste Grafik-Architektur von Intel Premiere, Xe3 oder "Celestial", auch die nächste dedizierte Grafikkarte bekam als Xe3P "C-Serie" einen kleinen Teaser, es dürfte also auch noch weitere Intel-Arc-Karten geben. Dacia möchte nach dem Sprin mit dem Hipster ein noch kleineres und günstigeres Elektro-Auto bieten: Der kleine Kasten auf vier Rädern soll als Serienmodell etwa 10.000 Euro kosten, bringt dabei aber auch nur eine Batterie mit 10 kWh mit und eine Reichweite von 100 km WLTP, also realistisch betrachtet etwa 60 bis 80 km. Ein richtiger City-Flitzer? Wir werden es sehen. Meep konnte endlich auch den Playtest zu "The Lift" von Fantastic Signals ausprobieren, ihr Fazit: Sie kann den Release kaum erwarten!

Role of RE in school curriculum, resilience in our gas supply, heating our older houses, 18p kWh electricity on the Island, unemployed young people with mental health issues & Orsted's Mooir Vannin drop-in events. It's Mannin Line with Andy Wint - Wednesday 1st October 2025

Wenn Sie glauben, beim Kauf eines Elektroautos müssten Sie weniger entscheiden, dann liegen Sie falsch. Denn auch hier müssen Sie zwischen Front- und Allradantrieb entscheiden,  Sie müssen sich bei der Leistung entscheiden und – das ist grade bei E-Fahrzeugen relevant, bei der notwendigen Reichweite.  Aber das ist gar nicht so schwer, wie man beim Opel Grandland Electric feststellen kann.  Darum geht es diesmal!Vor wenigen Tagen meldete der Stern, dass Produkte mit dem Herkunftssiegel "Made in Germany" laut einer Studie international höchstes Ansehen genießen. Es werde weltweit als vertrauenswürdig angesehen, noch vor dem entsprechenden Siegel der Schweiz. Laut einer Umfrage des Nürnberg Instituts für Marktentscheidungen (NIM) vertrauen 66 Prozent der Befragten "Made in Germany", knapp vor der Schweiz und Japan. Somit wirke sich die deutsche Herkunftsangabe zudem am häufigsten positiv auf die Kaufentscheidung aus. Der neue Opel Grandland Electric wurde am Opel-Stammsitz in Rüsselsheim designt und entwickelt und rollt nun exklusiv in Eisenach vom Band, somit ist er gleich doppelt "Made in Germany!" Power und Drive!    Aktuell gibt es den Opel Grandland Electric in zwei Leistungsstufen mit 157 kW (213 PS) und 239 kW (325 PS). Herzstück ist in beiden Fällen eine 73-kWh-Batterie, in Kürze wird es auch eine 97 kWh Batterie geben. Die aktuellen Varianten bekommt man mit Front- und Allradantrieb, wobei im letztgenannten Fall 239 kW (325 PS) zur Verfügung stehen. Das macht bei der Höchstgeschwindigkeit nicht viel aus, der eine schafft 170 km/h, der andere 180 km/h. Deutlicher ist der Unterschied im Sprint zur Tempo 100 Messmarke. Die schafft der Allradler in 6,1 Sekunden, der Fronttriebler benötigt 9 Sekunden. Dafür hat der Fronttriebler bei der Reichweite mit 505-521 Kilometern die Nase vorn, der Allradler muss sich allerdings mit 483 Kilometern auch nicht verstecken. Die Reichweite ist gemessen gemäß WLTP.  Der Verbrauch liegt mit rund 17,6 zu 18,1 kWh/100 km ebenfalls dicht beieinander. Auch die Ladezeiten sorgen nicht für eine Qual der Wahl, an einer Schnelladesäule dauert es von 20% bis 80% gerade mal 30 Minuten.Die Kosten!Für 46.750 Euro gibt es den Fronttriebler mit 157 kW (213 PS) als Edition, 50.950 Euro sind für den GS fällig. Die 239 kW (325 PS) Version mit Allradantrieb gibt es nur in der Topausstattung Ultimate, sie kostet 59.990 Euro.  Alle Fotos: © Opel Automobile GmbH    Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

#EP308What if you could slash your community's electricity costs by 40% while achieving true energy independence?AJ Perkins transformed from business executive to renewable energy pioneer, building 3.8 gigawatts of microgrid projects worldwide. In this Clean Power Hour episode, he reveals how community-scale solar and battery systems are revolutionizing energy economics.The breakthrough: AJ's team reduced payback periods from 7-11 years to just 18 months by combining solar, batteries, and grid services revenue. This creates a financial model that makes renewable energy irresistible to entire communities.Real-world results include:A 3,000-home Hawaii development using the "Utility Light" model where communities own their energy infrastructureAn Orange County mobile home park cutting electricity costs from 38¢ to 24¢ per kWh while adding AC for just 2¢ per kWhWhy thinking in clusters of 50-1,000+ homes creates economies of scale impossible with individual installationsTim and AJ explore the convergence of microgrids, Virtual Power Plants (VPPs), and infrastructure-as-a-service models that solve multiple municipal challenges simultaneously. They discuss California's public safety power shutoffs, utility partnerships, manufacturing reshoring, and practical strategies for scaling community energy projects.Key insight: Instead of protecting one family, AJ protects entire communities. His approach prevents the dangerous scenario where only one house has power during blackouts while neighbors remain in the dark.Whether you're a solar installer, utility professional, community leader, or clean energy investor, this episode provides actionable insights for building distributed energy infrastructure.

In this episode, our guest is Daniel Bleakley, co-founder of New Energy Transport, who shares how his team is building a vertically integrated, zero-emission road-freight company that can compete at diesel price parity by pairing electric trucks with on-site generation and smart participation in Australia's wholesale electricity market. He explains why heavy line-haul routes are the best first movers (diesel can be ~40% of operating cost), outlines initial operations between Sydney and the Illawarra before extending down the Hume to Melbourne, and describes early trials with customers starting in September. Daniel also highlights the system-level upside—using large truck batteries (≈600 kWh each) for vehicle-to-grid flexibility—and updates us on funding (a first raise just under A$1M in Nov, with grants and a follow-on round underway).

This week on America on the Road, we put the spotlight on two 2025 model-year vehicles that represent very different segments with wildly different powertrains but share a commitment to technology, practicality, and style — the 2025 Volvo EX40 and the 2025 Hyundai Palisade. Leading off, host Jack Nerad delivers a detailed road test of the 2025 Volvo EX40 Twin Motor Ultra. While the name may sound new, the EX40 is essentially a renamed version of Volvo's previous XC40 Recharge. This all-electric compact SUV features dual motors delivering 402 horsepower and 494 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 78 kWh battery that provides up to 275 miles of range. Its minimalist Scandinavian interior includes heated seats front and rear, a panoramic sunroof, Google-powered infotainment, and a Harman Kardon audio system. With DC fast-charging capabilities and a long list of advanced safety features, the EX40 offers luxury EV buyers a stylish and well-rounded all-wheel-drive package, but is its as-tested price of $62,045 a hill too high? Next up is co-host Chris Teague's road test of the 2025 Hyundai Palisade, a three-row SUV that's become a go-to family vehicle thanks to its spacious cabin, upscale features, and user-friendly tech. Powered by a 3.8-liter V6 engine producing 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, the Palisade delivers confident performance through an 8-speed automatic transmission, available in both front- and all-wheel-drive configurations. It earns an EPA-estimated 21 MPG combined, giving it solid range for long-distance travel. Inside, the Palisade offers seating for up to seven, 18 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, and a maximum of 86.4 cubic feet with seats folded. It also tows up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. Its near-luxury feel, intuitive tech, and extensive standard safety features win it kudos from both Chris and Jack, and they'll have more in this road test. This week's special guest is Frank Hanley, Senior Director of Automotive Benchmarking at J.D. Power. Frank joins the show to break down the results of the 2025 APEAL Study, which measures how emotionally satisfying a vehicle is to own and drive. He explains which brands are connecting with owners on a deeper level and what manufacturers can learn from the data. It's an insightful and data-rich segment that pulls back the curtain on the psychology of car ownership. This week's top automotive news stories: • Chrysler Gets Rugged with the Pacifica Grizzly Peak Concept
 Chrysler has revealed an overlanding-ready concept minivan, the Pacifica Grizzly Peak, at Overland Expo Mountain West. Featuring lifted suspension, all-terrain tires, roof storage, and a reconfigured cargo area, the concept taps into the booming “van life” trend with AWD practicality. • New Tax Break Replaces EV Credit A new U.S. tax policy will let buyers deduct interest on car loans for new vehicles built in the United States, replacing the expiring $7,500 EV credit. The deduction, estimated to save buyers about $576 (roughly), applies to U.S.-made gas, hybrid, and electric vehicles purchased between 2025 and 2028, but excludes leases and used cars. • Tesla Hikes Cyberbeast Price by $15K
 Tesla has increased the price of its flagship Cybertruck variant, the Cyberbeast, to $114,990, adding a new “Luxe Package” with Full-Self Driving and Supercharger access. The move has puzzled analysts, as Cybertruck sales remain slow despite massive early demand. • NHTSA Investigates Honda, Acura Engine Failures

Trump messaged the people that everything is being put into place to win the midterms. Stage has now been set.   Economy Governor Murphy's Green New Deal Exacerbates NJ Energy Crisis New Jerseyans are feeling the pain of higher electricity bills. They should blame Governor Phil Murphy and the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) for inviting this energy crisis. The BPU was slated to approve a 20% rate hike in June, but delayed the rate hike until September 30. On August 14, the BPU announced a $100 Residential Universal Bill Credit to help lower bills in September and October. This is a way to use taxes to disguise the cost of utility bills, but New Jerseyans are still shouldering these costs. When announcing this relief measure, Governor Murphy didn't accept responsibility for higher prices. Instead, he blamed PJM Interconnection, a grid operator servicing New Jersey and 12 other states, for creating a “cost crisis.” Earlier this summer, he urged residents to set their air conditioners to 76-78 degrees Fahrenheit and delay appliance usage until 8 p.m. But Garden Staters aren't buying what Murphy is selling. Since Governor Murphy entered office in 2017, six power plants—including five coal plants and Oyster Creek nuclear reactor—were shut down. This represents a loss of 2,500 megawatts (MW) of net capacity. As a result, the state consumes more energy than it produces. It imported 20% of its electricity from out-of-state power generators—namely, Pennsylvania. Imported electricity is more expensive due to higher fuel and transmission costs. One analysis found NJ's green “transition” “has outpaced its replacement infrastructure, raising concerns about grid stability, cost volatility, and energy independence.” Yet, there is no transition occurring. Natural gas and nuclear have cumulatively supplied over 90% of the state's net electricity generation since 2011. Renewables, including solar, barely supply 8%. But don't take my word for it. States with clean energy mandates—including renewable standard portfolios (RPS) that mandate electric utilities set renewable energy targets—generally have higher electricity costs compared to states without them. As of this writing, New Jersey electricity rates are the 12th most expensive in the nation, averaging 20.49¢ per kilowatt-hour (kWh). That's 17.3% higher than the national average (17.47¢ per kWh). For context, the average American household uses about 10,800 kWh annually.

This weekend the 62nd Badger Steam and Gas Engine Club Show chugs into Baraboo. If you look across the audience, you may notice that it's heavily male influenced, but that doesn't mean that the fairer sex isn't engaged. Heidi Knuth was born into the hobby of collecting John Deere equipment. It's a family tradition for the Knuths. She is proud to be a woman in the hobby and takes pride in pursuing a passion her parents instilled in her. Kiley Allan finds out what motivates her to keep on collecting.Hot and sticky. Those two words have come to describe weather in Wisconsin. Stu Muck does say that the rain expected this weekend is a little different pattern than what we normally see in August. Farmers are gearing up for silage time in the state. That's one important feedstuff for Wisconsin livestock, but not the only one. Ben Jarboe Talks with Mike Goel of G&S agriculture in Whitewater about the current hay supply. With drought impact several hay producing states in the west, Goel says there is high demand for quality hay. He also cautions that there's plenty of poor hay in the market because of the rain Wisconsin experienced. He expects some farmers to gravitate towards soybean meal and other supplements as the year moves on. It's estimated that the average dairy farm uses between 800-1200 kilowatt-hours(kWh) of energy PER COW annually. That's a big energy bill for a farm to manage. Focus on Energy partners with dairies all across the state on new builds, and renovations to try and parse that bill down. Pam Jahnke saw proof of that partnership at the 2025 WI Farm Technology Days Show. Clinton Farms, the host, just completed a 50-cow rotary parlor. A huge construction project that involved Focus on Energy advisors. Sharing the story are Brad Clinton, owner/operator of Clinton Farm and Jessica Mlsna, a Focus on Energy Advisor.

Benjamin fires up the show with his take on the 2026 Cadillac Vistiq, an electric three-row crossover that seems to be replacing Caddy;s own XT6. With 102 kWh of battery on tap, and over 600 hp, this is a big player in the world of EVs, but what else makes it stand out? While the world of three-row EVs is relatively slim, Benjamin suggests that the Vistiq might have a chance to be the best in its class, if only GM could sort out some small teething issues first. Then the show turns towards plug-in hybrids, as Benjamin and Sami quickly discuss the 2025 Toyota Prius PHEV. Formerly crowned as car of the year, the guys pinpoint what makes this Prius special compared to previous ones, and whether this plug-in variant is one of the best commuter cars on the market. Thanks for listening!

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1121: We cover the rapid growth in EV charging infrastructure even as EV sales plateau, Tesla's China-only 500+ mile Model 3, and a solar-powered drone that just stayed airborne for 74 hours without a drop of fuel.Show Notes with links:EV sales brace for slump, but charging networks surge ahead with automaker supportDespite challenges in EV sales, the U.S. fast-charging network is rapidly expanding and may actually meet infrastructure goals—whether or not EV adoption keeps pace.The U.S. hit nearly 60,000 fast-charging ports in Q2 and is on track for 19% growth in 2025.Private investment, not government aid, is fueling most of this growth as NEVI funds stall, with new players like Ionna and Mercedes-Benz expanding fastTesla dominates with 54% market share; Electrify America and ChargePoint trail at under 8%.“There will be more choice, more infrastructure and, hopefully, better experiences for EV drivers,” said Loren McDonald, chief analyst at Paren.This comes as U.S. EV registrations rose 4.6% in June, but EV market share slipped to 8.6%—down from 8.8% last year—signaling a stagnant market.Tesla's registrations dropped 6%, while GM surged with Chevrolet up 152% and Cadillac up 87%, showing shifting momentum among major players.Tesla has quietly introduced its longest-range Model 3 to date, the "Model 3 Plus," capable of up to 515 miles—but only for the Chinese market, for now.The 830 km (CLTC-rated) Model 3 Plus uses a more powerful 225 kW motor and LG-supplied lithium-ion batteries.It achieves long range with just a 78.4 kWh battery thanks to efficiency gains, not just capacity.Tesla aims to compete directly with high-range local EVs like the Xiaomi SU7 and is expected to launch the model in China by September with a price just under $38K.“This effectively shatters the 700 km psychological ceiling,” said Shanghai-based analyst Li Wei.Aviation startup Skydweller Aero just pulled off a wild feat: flying a solar-powered drone for 74 hours straight—twice—without touching down or using a drop of fuel.The drone has a wingspan larger than a Boeing 747 and runs solely on solar power and batteries.Its 17,000 solar cells power flight by day and charge 1,400 pounds of onboard batteries to keep flying at night.Recent Navy tests suggest big military potential in anti-piracy, smuggling patrols, and backup GPS missions.Skydweller also has commercial ambitions, including remote internet delivery and environmental monitoring.“There's a lot of money to be made in something that never touches the ground,” the company noted.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Subaru's Solterra joined the Subie lineup in 2022 for the 2023 model year after making its debut at the 2021 Los Angeles Auto Show. Sharing the bones with the Toyota bZ4X, the Solterra offered Subaru shoppers a battery-electric option. While the Solterra is gearing up for a major overhaul for 2026, the 2025 Solterra still packs effectively the same powertrain as its launch edition. That means there's a 72.8-kWh battery pack underneath, which feeds a pair of electric motors. Together, those electric motors send 215 hp and 249 lb-ft of torque to the wheels. For 2025, the folks at Subaru slashed the Solterra's price and brought the starting price to $39,915.On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek executive editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of the 2025 Subaru Solterra and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of the '25 Solterra 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 2025 Solterra, its spot in the market, and Subaru's future in the battery-electric space. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2025 Subaru Solterra special.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1114: Shawn Fain's own union members want him out. Chevy's Silverado EV clocks an unbelievable 1,059 miles on a charge, and as AI reshapes white-collar work, Gen Z is finding job security in scrubs, not suits.Show Notes with links:Shawn Fain, the fiery UAW president who led the landmark 2023 strike against the Detroit 3, is now facing a revolt from within his own ranks. Several union locals have voted to launch removal proceedings, citing layoffs, retaliation, and alleged financial mismanagement.Workers at Stellantis and GM plants joined four other UAW locals in voting to oust Fain, meeting the threshold for a federal monitor to review the allegations.At issue are thousands of Stellantis layoffs since the 2023 contract, said to result from pressure to raise wages.Critics also say Fain retaliated against board members who resisted approving spending.Support for Fain remains strong among graduate student workers, but dissent is growing in Detroit-area factories.“I supported Shawn, but his spending is out of control and he's retaliatory,” said David Pillsbury, a GM worker behind the petition.Chevrolet has set a new benchmark for EV range, pushing a 2026 Silverado EV Work Truck to an eye-popping 1,059 miles on a single charge. The test, though far from real-world conditions, highlights just how much efficiency can be squeezed out of today's EV technology.40 drivers took 1 hour turns and averaged just 20–25 mph, taking seven days to complete the run.Tricks included removing the spare tire, overinflating tires, adding a tonneau cover, and shutting off climate control.The Silverado EV WT is EPA-rated for 493 miles, but the hypermiling allowed the 205-kWh battery to return 4.9 miles per kWh—beating Lucid's 749-mile record.“Getting this kind of range doesn't happen by accident,” said Kurt Kelty, GM VP of battery and propulsion.With tech and business roles slowing under AI pressure, young men are struggling to find footing, while women dominate in growing fields like nursing.Gen Z men see higher unemployment as AI disrupts entry-level business and tech roles.Healthcare remains one of the few industries adding jobs in 2025.Nearly 90% of nursing roles are held by women, offering steady opportunities.Education and hospitality — also female-led sectors — are also adding jobs.Elise Gould, a senior economist at the Economic Policy Institute, said, "It could be tougher for men who are looking for jobs where there's just not a whole lot of hiring right now."Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

En este video contamos con el apoyo de Planeta DeAgostini… y gracias a ellos, nos vamos a esos tiempos en que los americanos, para hacer un deportivo, partían de un coche de tamaño reducido, para sus parámetros, y le metían un motor “gordo” … pero muy “gordo”, tanto como de 8 cilindros en V y 7.000 cm3. Esta maqueta es una verdadera maravilla… ¡Y no se te olvide poner el código GARAJEHERMETICO! Así nació el Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, un verdadero mito y una idea genial de Carrol Shelby: Meter en el “compacto” Ford Mustang un motor “Big Block” de 7 litros ¿El resultado? Un coche de ensueño, precioso, de 1.500 kg y 360 CV… ¡que han llegado a más de 700 con compresor! A la gente de Planeta DeAgostini les gusta hacer las cosas “a lo grande” y la buena noticia es que este coche puede ser tuyo, en una detallada maqueta de casi 80 cm de largo a escala 1/6. Una maqueta hecha en metal que he podido ver y tocar con mis propias manos con sonido, luces, completamente detallada, con puertas y capós con mecanismos de apertura, con dirección y hasta ¡con mando a distancia! Siempre lo sigo: Disfrutas de esta maqueta sin duda con el resultado final, pero también con la obra editorial que acompaña a la colección, que te va a contar toda la historia y características de este modelo único y, sobre todo, montándola. Y volvemos al asunto, eléctricos vs híbridos… y es que Audi, Bentley, Cadillac, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Toyota, Volkswagen y Volvo, entre otras marcas, retrasan o posponen “sine die” sus planes de electrificación. Mientras los híbridos, especialmente los enchufables, ganan el favor del público… e incluso hay quienes afirman que son más ecológicos que los eléctricos puros. ¡Menudo lio! Que te vamos a aclarar. Muchos “electroheads” estarán pensando “¿quiénes son esos que afirman que los híbridos son más ecológicos que los eléctricos puros?”. Pues marcas tan importantes como Toyota por ejemplo… Algunos de esos “electroheads” me dirán, “¡Hombre Máximo! Ellos son juez y parte”. Y es verdad… como también es verdad que saben mucho, pero mucho de coches. Y las declaraciones de Akio Toyoda, su presidente, no son para echar en saco roto. Ha dicho, literalmente, que: “9 millones de coches eléctricos contaminan tanto como 27 millones de híbridos y por tanto la industria no debería enfocarse únicamente en los vehículos eléctrico”. Vale, señores “electroheads” que no so fiais de Akio Toyoda… hacéis mal, pero ¿os fiais de la American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy? Una entidad independiente norteamericana que se dedica a estudiar qué tipo de energías son más eficientes. En su último estudio afirma que “el coche más ecológico de EEUU no es precisamente eléctrico”, apunta a que es híbrido. Lo hemos dicho siempre en este canal: La emisiones de un coche deben tener en cuenta su uso, pero también su fabricación y reciclaje final. Y en este estudio denominado “Greencars” que mide el ciclo completo de vida de un coche ha dado como vencedor al coche más ecológico vendido en los USA a un híbrido enchufable, al Toyota Prius Prime SE. A esos modelos 100x100 eléctricos les bastan autonomías de como mucho 300/400 km que se consiguen con baterías relativamente pequeñas, de 50 kWh o hasta 75 kWh si aspiramos a algún viaje planificado, que resultan más ligeras y más baratas. Acabo de recoger un coche que responde a estas premisas, un flamante R5 100x100 eléctrico, amarillo, precioso, que va de maravilla y del que os contaré como va con todo lujo de detalles… para mí el arquetipo del eléctrico que interesa. Si vives en una ciudad o cerca, eléctrico. Si vi ves en el campo, lejos de las ciudades y quieres un coche grande e incluso un TT, diésel… y como decía el anuncio de una famosa tarjeta de crédito “para todo lo demás… híbrido”. Lo que sucede es que un buen híbrido enchufable en ciudad es como un eléctrico… eso sí, si te molestas en enchufarlo, ¡claro! Pero además puedes viajar “hasta el infinito y más allá” sin problemas, sin necesidad de programar el viaje de ni largas esperas para cargar. Me parto de la risa cuando veo video de “electroheads” que anuncian a bombo y platillo que se puede viajar sin problemas con un eléctrico porque en cargadores ultrarrápidos de ¡350 kWh! Que le meten un calentón “que pa' qué” a la batería, cargan el 80 por ciento en 15 minutos… Pero luego veo videos donde te cuentan lo que cuestan esas recargas, que pueden llegar a costar más que la gasolina. Y esto nos lleva a otro punto. Sí tienes garaje, en muchos casos un eléctrico puede ser una opción, porque si cargas en casa vas a ahorrar mucho en energía frente a un híbrido y mucho más frente a un coche térmico. Pero de lo contario… yo me lo pensaría.

It was no secret that Lamborghini was going to launch a crossover – the bigger question was when the company would want to cash in on a second row of seats. Well, the answer came in 2017 with the 2018 Lamborghini Urus. While not the company's first SUV, it does take center stage as the first people mover from the brand in decades. Expanding on the Urus, the company recently launched the Urus SE, which adds a plug-in hybrid powertrain to the mix. This Urus PHEV packs a 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 that works with a hybrid system to make a combined 789 hp. This hybrid system also uses a 21.8-kWh battery pack, which allows about 30 miles of electric-only propulsion. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's Mark Vaughn hops behind the wheel of the 2025 Lamborghini Urus SE and puts it through its paces. Vaughn takes you on a guided tour of the Lambo crossover and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Vaughn takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Vaughn chats with host Wesley Wren about the Lamborghini Urus, about this plug-in hybrid, and about the greater high-performance crossover landscape. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2025 Lamborghini Urus special.

Max Trescott takes listeners inside the cockpit of the future in episode 390, as he shares his firsthand experience flying the fully electric Bristell B23 Energic trainer and talks with executives from H55, the Swiss company behind its electric propulsion system. This in-depth episode explores the technical, operational, and strategic aspects of electric flight training aircraft. The B23 Energic is a joint project between Czech aircraft manufacturer BRM Aero and H55, the latter founded by the team behind the Solar Impulse aircraft that flew around the world on solar power. Max discusses how H55 is focusing on producing electric propulsion systems—batteries, controllers, and motors—for aircraft manufacturers, rather than building entire aircraft themselves. This modular approach is designed to speed up certification and lower development costs. H55 CEO Martin Larose shares how the company is involved in several projects worldwide, including with CAE to retrofit Piper Archers, Harbour Air to electrify floatplanes, and Pratt & Whitney on a hybrid Dash 8-400. He also explains H55's plan to manufacture battery systems in both Switzerland and Montreal to serve global markets while avoiding costly and complex battery transport logistics. Max's test flight takes place at Palo Alto Airport, where the B23 Energic was on a U.S. tour. He notes the aircraft's similarities to the Piper Sport Cruiser in handling and design, due to a shared designer. The electric version offers about 60 minutes of flight time and a 10-minute reserve, although U.S. FAA rules would require a 30-minute reserve, limiting U.S. endurance to 40 minutes unless additional batteries are added. The aircraft uses NCA lithium-ion batteries and features a liquid-cooled motor and controller, but air-cooled batteries to keep things simple. While the plane's payload is about 73 pounds less than its piston counterpart, it offers dramatically lower operating costs—estimated at $8–9 per hour for electricity versus $50+ per hour in fuel and oil for conventional trainers. The certification process, especially in Europe under EASA, remains H55's biggest challenge, with 90% of company resources dedicated to achieving approval. The motor is built by Equipmake in the UK to H55's design and features dual windings for redundancy—ensuring safe single-failure tolerance. Max also interviews Laurent, the demo pilot, and Céline, a project engineer, learning about how H55 built hundreds of hours of bench testing before the aircraft even flew. Their insights underscore the care and rigorous engineering that go into preparing electric aircraft for real-world flight training environments. In-flight, Max describes the aircraft as well-balanced and intuitive, with a quiet cabin that enhances concentration—an important advantage for student pilots. He praises the center stick control, wide cabin, and visibility. The landing was smooth and predictable, and energy use during the short flight was minimal—about 6 kWh for a pattern and 360 turn. Finally, Max reflects on how quickly the electric nature of the aircraft faded into the background during flight—exactly what H55 wants. The B23 Energic is expected to launch in Europe in 2026 and U.S. in 2027, with a price of $431,000 for early buyers and $500,000 later. It will be certified for Day VFR only, making it a strong candidate for cost-effective flight training.
