Right now, just about everyone who cares about EVs (and not just Teslas), solar, and climate change is focused on beating Trump. It makes sense, because it’s clear what would happen if he gets back into office. I was talking about Project 2025 before it was cool the way it.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
