Electric cars can save billions in climate change, air pollution damage

New study finds that billions of dollars can be saved and hundreds of thousands of premature deaths can be avoided by a widespread shift to electric vehicles.
Stanford research brings EVs one step closer to wirelessly charging on roads

Stanford research brings EVs one step closer to wirelessly charging on roads

Stanford University researchers illustrate how wireless charging could be scaled up to boost driving range of electric vehicles on highways of the future.
One day electric cars and trucks could charge each other on highways

One day electric cars and trucks could charge each other on highways

Researchers say peer-to-peer electric car charging system, allowing EVs to “lend” energy to each other, could cure range anxiety and reduce battery size.
