Acquiring a new car has always been expensive. But the drumbeat of headlines—and data—suggests that for many Americans it has never been more challenging.

Folks who work in #ElectricVehicleWorld - I'm wondering what news sites, online shows or EV experts do you find most reliable?

Always a pleasure speaking with @shannonosaka.bsky.social
- this time around the impressive growth in the U.S. EV charging network (🔼30%) in 2025 according to a new report by Paren.

With a winter storm heading to the east coast, many drivers might be thinking what the impact of the cold may have on their cars.

The winter has always been a test for vehicles, as efficiency is lowered in the cold and extra energy is required to heat up the cabin.

A very optimistic gloss on the situation, but nonetheless a nice rejoinder to the deafening drumbeat of #EV doom + gloom news from every quarter.

As we head into the final stretch of the year, it’s as good a time as any to reflect on the industry’s growth and policy impacts over the past twelve months.

So big news for my niche EVs / Nets followers. I'm getting married next weekend and going on a honeymoon! You'll get me for about another week or so and then going to take a hiatus.

The good news is that since the Nets are tanking... I won't be missing much on that front!

👋 hi BLM did cancel the project and now different parts of it have to go it alone. what was once almost done with a federal permitting is now an “early stage” effort in their words of developers. hope this explanation helps!
“The BLM did not cancel the project,” the email reads. “During routine discussions prior to the lapse in appropriations, the proponents and BLM agreed to change their approach for the Esmeralda 7 Solar Project in Nevada.”

Heading to Detroit for the Forth Conference and reading this review on the new @NissanUSA Leaf has me thinking there could be some good affordable EV options coming for the U.S. in 2026…

Last week, it was a privilege to present at the ZETA Education Fund's Climate Week Event on the state of the EV market.

New York Climate Week is awesome & so overwhelming - there's like a gazillion events but also the paradox of choice playing out in real time...

Anyone else feel the same way? Any EV/mobility stuff worth looking out for this week?

How is electric vehicle adoption going in Kentucky?

I spoke with Lily Burris of @wkmsfm.bsky.social to discuss the state's investments in EV battery factories, the potential impact of these investments and how the industry is moving forward.

So #energysky folks - general question for you: what do you find makes a good webinar or online conversation in terms of format and style?

Thinking a bit about this and wanted to see if anyone here had thoughts? (Can also shoot me DMs too if that's easier).

FWIW I just saw 2 Jeep plug-in hybrids charging at the Flo EV chargers near my apartment — good on PHEV owners plugging in!
