The stack gives off heat but apparently the coolant loop for the fuel stack doesn't get nearly as hot as it would in a conventional engine so it...
I think the magic drain button just turns on a fan (which can be heard) to blow residual water out of the fuel cell stack and draining tubing and...
If the water was brownish it was probably from road dust/dirt. The water I've personally seen emitted from the Mirai did not look obviously brown...
Often times, "poor" city mileage in a Prius is really due to the engine having just recently started so the driving is on an engine that is not at...
Huh? Typo? The vast majority of cars do much worse in the city driving than the Prius. The Prius design is much better at maintaining city...
Tesla is already doing 135 kWh at ~400v using water cooled relatively thin cables from the charger to the car and say they may be able to do 150...
I don't recall offhand. I think it was a newer paper by Cutler Cleveland.
Here's a breakdown for the energy use used in oil extraction circa 1997 by one of the leading academic experts. Newer data is unfortunately hidden...
It's interesting to see the (huge) difference between upstream CO2 emissions for conventional oil vs. oil sands but to understand the big picture...
My impression is that any real disagreements at this point are about oil extraction rather than refineries. And, more specifically, how much...
Nice find! I never though to look for EnergyStar reports on refineries. Dishwashers and refrigerators, yes, but refineries? It's a long report do...
And how do you know that "they stopped publishing that data"? Did you get that from the FullyCharged "Volts for oil" episode? I've seen zero...
I think you're making this way too complicated. The simpler explanation is that someone read somewhere that refining a gallon of gasoline takes"...
I've seen no evidence to suggest that's plausible. Do you have a citation or link in support of that idea? We know that EPA and GREET say that...
I'm certainly not disputing that grid-tied makes a lot more sense....
It seems to me that this is changing rapidly. In 2-3 years you won't need a Tesla 70D but can get by with a Bolt or Model 3 for under $40,000....
This morning I saw a couple of Google's new self-driving BEV prototype cars on the road for the first time. Within a span of 5 minutes I saw an...
The Model S needs electricity. Taking the various fuels used during the refinery process and turning them into electricity requires a conversion...
That's such a great (false) story that it just won't die. The video blog Fully Charged recently devoted an entire episode to promulgating it and...
Creating a car with the 50 mpg target of a Prius requires a near perfect alignment of powertrain, body shape, weight, and performance targets....
