EV Motors without Rare Earth Metals?

Energy Central

A large majority of current road-going electric vehicles use two new technologies. One is Lithium-Ion Batteries, and the other is electric traction motors. I’ve written about the former extensively, and my recent major paper on these is described and linked in this paper. I have also written about EV motors, but not recently. This post will fix this tardiness.

Accelerate "geothermal anywhere" to reduce need for electricity Grid

Energy Central

We may be on the cusp of ability to bore "deep enough, cheap enough" to profitably harvest and deliver energy from deep hot dry rock geothermal (DHDRG) sources directly beneath major demand and load, almost anywhere on Earth. Humanity's total demand for electricity, hydrogen, and hot water for DHCS would be met via a proliferation of autonomous micro- and mini-grids, loosely.
