Generac Power Systems (NYSE: GNRC) makes a variety of power products, but is probably best-known as a manufacturer of backup generators. As bidirectional EV charging, which allows an EV battery to be used as a source of backup power, moves into the mainstream, demand for generators seems likely to dwindle, and some stock analysts have been making pessimistic predictions about Generac’s future.

A newer, more accurate method for calculating methane emissions from offshore oil and gas production suggests that the United Kingdom severely underestimates its greenhouse gas emissions. Researchers conclude that as much as five times more methane is being leaked from oil and gas production than reported. Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, contributing about 0.55°C present-day global warming relative to pre-industrial times.
