What is the difference between on and off grid energy generation?
On-grid systems are tied to the local utility and supply steady power, while off-grid setups generate and store their own energy, often needing backup for reliability
What are the cost for electrical transmission versus generation?
Is off guard generation cheaper than transmission?
Off-grid generation can bypass costly transmission infrastructure, but its generation costs might be higher without utility scale economies. It really depends on location, tech, and energy mix, so both have trade-offs released
What about renewable energy? That can lower the cost without the economies of scale? Or can it?
Renewable tech is rapidly advancing. While scale remains important for cost efficiency, improvements in solar, wind, and battery storage can make distributed renewables increasingly competitive in off-grid setups without massive transmission investments
What are some of the latest technological advancements regarding batteries?
Recent battery advances include solid-state tech that boosts energy density and safety, and improved lithium-ion chemistries offering faster charging and longer lifespans—all promising for both grid-tied and off-grid renewables
How does this affect electric vehicles?
Improved battery tech boosts EV range and reduces charging times, making them more practical for daily use while enhancing performance and reliability in diverse driving conditions
What are the top 5 leading EV companies by unit (EV) sales?
Recent info points to Tesla, BYD, Wuling, Volkswagen, and GM leading in EV unit sales—though rankings can vary by region and shifts in market dynamics remain key factors
Tell me about Wuling.
Wuling, part of SAIC-GM-Wuling, is known for affordable compact EVs that have seen strong domestic success. Their cost-effective, urban-focused approach is helping drive EV adoption in emerging markets
