A regional fleet tally shows Latin America and the Caribbean now operate more than 9,900 electric buses, underscoring the scale of transit electrification beyond private cars.

CAISO has approved a plan recommending 38 transmission projects over the next decade, with more than half driven by expected demand growth rather than only renewable integration.

France is tying industrial policy, energy security and electrification together in a plan to raise the share of electricity produced domestically by 2030, with new support for EV charging, heat pumps and industrial build

A team from the University of British Columbia says an electrochemical preheating step and recycled cement inputs could lower the emissions burden of one of the world’s dirtiest industrial materials.

Honda is signaling that hybrids will anchor its mainstream business for years, while Acura moves faster toward a hybrid-only lineup.

A Sennebogen demonstration combining an electric wheeled excavator, a mobile battery, and a mobile shredder shows how electrification and semi-autonomy may converge in industrial equipment.
