First Student is adding 40 electric school buses in New York City after completing the first phase of a charging project that cut infrastructure costs by 20%.

New York City has chosen Brooklyn-based it’s electric to supply the hardware for its permanent curbside EV charging network, which will bring nearly 700 Level 2 charging points to all five boroughs over the next three years.

Old solar panels contain valuable silver, copper, silicon, aluminum, and glass. A new Texas solar recycling plant aims to recover nearly all of it without sending partially processed materials overseas.

The average new EV got cheaper in August, even as the average transaction price (ATP) paid for a new vehicle in the US climbed back above $50,000.

Global EV sales barely moved the needle in August, but that number hides two dramatically different markets: Europe surged 36% from a year ago, while North America plunged 33%.

A new rare earth recycling plant in Arizona could create another domestic source of materials needed for EV motors, wind turbines, and a long list of other products.

The US achieved a pretty big solar milestone in Q2 2026: it now has enough installed capacity to generate clean electricity equivalent to that used by more than 50 million homes. That’s more than one-third of all US households.

EVgo is adding more than 400 fast-charging stalls at grocery-anchored shopping centers across the US, giving EV drivers more places to plug in while they shop or grab a coffee.

One of the most common arguments against a new wind or solar farm is that it will drag down nearby home values. A new Indiana study found no evidence that it does.

Wisconsin is awarding $25 million in federal funding for 42 new DC fast-charging stations, expanding its EV charging network beyond the state’s interstates and onto more US and state highways.

China’s clean energy machine is now moving so fast that it’s meeting soaring electricity demand and pushing coal power backward at the same time.

For the first time, an autonomous EV might show up if you order an Uber in London.

IONNA is giving Labor Day road-trippers a pretty awesome charging deal: From Friday, September 4, through Monday, September 7, charging across its entire network will cost just $0.20 per kWh, plus tax.

VW could stop building cars at four German plants as it prepares to cut another 50,000 jobs worldwide – bringing its total planned workforce reduction to around 100,000.

Equinor’s largest US battery energy storage project to date is now operating in South Texas, adding 100 megawatts (MW) of flexible capacity to the state’s fast-growing power grid.

Minnesota is getting ready to put a lot more EV fast chargers on the map – and this time, they’ll be located beyond the state’s three major interstates.

Maine regulators have picked Clearway Energy to develop an 800-megawatt (MW) wind farm in northern Maine – a project that would boost the state’s existing onshore wind capacity by about 66%.

US battery storage company NeoVolta Power has locked in five years’ worth of US-made battery cells from Seoul-headquartered SK On to help scale up NeoVolta’s Georgia factory.

New Jersey renters and apartment dwellers will soon be able to lower their electricity bills with solar panels that plug directly into a standard wall outlet – no roof required.

The US battery storage market just posted its biggest quarter ever, adding 20.2 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of new capacity in Q2 2026.

San Francisco has launched a citywide curbside EV charging program, giving companies a clear path to install public chargers in neighborhoods across the city.

Solar power now powers more than 10,800 US K-12 schools – that means 1 in 7 students goes to a school powered by the sun – but battery storage hasn’t quite caught on yet.

Including new small-scale solar, renewables’ capacity is likely to surpass natural gas by summer 2027 or sooner, according to new data just released by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), and reviewed by the SUN DAY Campaign.

Santa Monica, California’s public Big Blue Bus fleet is getting 130 DC fast-charging ports as it works toward building an entirely electric fleet by 2032.
