In 2014, Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile started an all-electric auto racing series, Formula E. Now, a decade later, NASCAR is showing off a prototype electric racer it built with corporate partners including Chevrolet, Ford Motor Company, and Toyota Motor Corporation. It's also talking up its plan to make NASCAR carbon neutral in a mere 11 years from now. https://lnkd.in/d7tT5eJt

Almost all electric motors function by exploiting the principles of moving-charge electromagnetism--you know, electromagnets. But engineers have long been fascinated by the possibility of electric motors that derive their propulsive force from electrostatics. Now, researchers associated with the University of Wisconsin have formed a company, C-Motive Technologies, to produce macro-scale electrostatic motors. https://lnkd.in/gBbpWkYi

The enormous energy needs of training large language models has the usual suspect AI giants scrambling to lock down access to as much electric power as possible. A recent example was Amazon Web Services (AWS)'s attempt to get priority ("behind-the-meter") access to 180 megawatts from a Pennsylvania nuclear plant. What happened next looks like a precedent for future such transactions: other electricity customers of the plant complained about the deal, and they were swiftly overruled by the plant's operator. https://lnkd.in/gzHVD5_e

Plans to get vital metals for EV batteries from seafloor nodules have hit a snag. It seems the nodules may be producing oxygen through a mysterious electrolytic process, and that the oxygen may be a crucial element in poorly-understood deep-sea ecosystems where the nodules are collected. https://lnkd.in/e3fEATVK

If we ever get practical, powerful quantum computers they will be able to break RSA encryption, which protects a huge fraction of the world's important, sensitive information (banking, business, government, critical infrastructure). So the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is already preparing for that day by releasing standards for encryption schemes that, unlike RSA, are not vulnerable to quantum computing. https://lnkd.in/e9JD8ATY
