Uber Electric, World’s Largest Heat Battery and Floating Wind Turbine
Manage episode 515292739 series 2865882
Uber Green gets a new name as Uber doubles down on electric rides, the world’s largest heat battery comes online in California, a massive new floating twin wind turbine from China smashes records, and California tightens fire safety rules after a major grid battery blaze. Plus, why cold wind actually generates more electricity — and why Kia’s newest EV comes with a gasoline-scented air freshener.
Brian goes all the way to Boston to see a Paul Thomas Anderson film in VistaVision then gets stranded there thanks to Air Canada. Then we discuss the Blue Jays going to the World Series. More chitchat in our extended Patreon episode this week.
China’s MingYang Ocean X floating wind turbine doubles the size of current designs with 290-meter rotors and 50 MW capacity. James vents about nuclear plans in Saskatchewan
More:
- Nissan’s Sakura EV gets a solar roof generating up to 3,000 km of free driving per year.
- Beyond Meat stock surges over 1,000%.
- Chinese automakers outsell Toyota in Japan’s EV market.
- Fossil-fuel heat linked to a 38% decline in tropical birds.
- Finland finds cold air produces more wind energy than warm — but watch out for ice on the blades.
