Low-Cost Electric Carshare Program Launched In Charlotte
“The carshare model gets a lot of butts in EV seats, increasing awareness for riders and the family and friends they share their EV experience with, while showcasing the affordability of used EVs today.”
Skepticism surrounds Tennessee's small module reactor award
“There's a whole question that we just had a big election where energy affordability is a big part of it. Throwing money after a reactor design that isn't cost effective isn't a good investment both by the taxpayers of the United States because that $400 million didn't just appear, it's coming from the taxpayers of the United States and ultimately the rate payers, the customers who pay their bill to TVA may have to pay higher electric bills.”

Musk and crew moved forward on the path to operating the facility, and only then announced a change in magnitude that creates a fundamentally different situation for public health in Memphis, economic stability for ratepayers, and environmental security.”

Albany is one of the fastest-warming cities in the U.S. What is the impact, and what can it do better?
“A lot of the black people who live on … the south side, the east side, they live in older homes, and a lot of them are renting, or they own a home, and they've never done any energy efficiency because they don't know about it or they don't have the funds.
