UK Geothermal Power Hotting up in Cornwall
An exciting new project has been launched to extract geothermal energy in Cornwall. We look at how it works and the potential Cornish resource.
Electric Vehicles: Cost Analysis Are they really that expensive?
One of the common preconceived notions about EVs is that they are expensive. Let’s tackle that issue and see how expensive electric vehicles are.
Electric Vehicles: The Road to Grid Meltdown? Will EVs cause the grid to melt?
We take a look at the likelihood of EVs causing a grid meltdown or even a home meltdown and how to prevent it.
Electric Vehicles: Infrastructure Where are all the charge points?
We look at the variations in charge point technologies and the emerging challenges for the infrastructure to support EVs.
