Wind, solar, and batteries make up 82% of 2023’s expected new utility-scale power capacity in the US, according to the US Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) “Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory.” As of January 2023, the US was operating 73.5 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale solar capacity – about 6% of the country’s total.
Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares spoke recently about his company’s plans around continuing electrification. He stressed the need for EVs to be affordable, to have more range—and to weigh a lot less. Tavares also talked about the need for more EV battery recycling, though admitted it will be years before there is significant supply of spent batteries in the pipeline.
Achieving the Biden Administration’s goal of cutting floating offshore wind development costs by 70% will require advanced manufacturing and materials science, agency leaders said during a roundtable at the Department of Energy’s Floating Offshore Wind Summit.
Affordable brushless motors are great for a variety of motion applications, but often require a gearbox to tame their speed. [Michael Rechtin] decided to try his hand at designing a stackable planetary gearbox for a brushless motor that allows him to add or remove stages to change the gear ratio.
