Will Breezes and Sunshine Charge Governor Jay Inslee’s EVs?

Washington State Governor Jay Inslee, like California’s Governor Gavin Newsom, is mandating that his state become all-electric. In doing so, Inslee demonstrates serious myopia.

Breakthrough! A Big Utility Says Net-Zero May Not Be Reliable

Dominion Energy, the big Virginia utility, has finally admitted that net-zero may not work.

Get Ready for Higher Electricity Bills to Fund Vehicle Charging

Charging at home is a favored feature of electric vehicles (EVs). But public charging stations are needed for long trips and to maximize EV market penetration.
