** "Certainly, no one could blame workers for believing climate activists in the Democratic Party are selling out their union supporters. It’s an unintended consequence that could be a game-changer in next year’s election. Even if the big three auto manufacturers meet the union’s demands on wages, the EV problem will not go away."

(9/29/23) reports: "In a new report sent to Rigzone this week, Standard Chartered revealed that it is launching a machine learning model for near-term Brent price forecasting. Dubbed SCORPIO (Standard Chartered Oil Research Price Indicator), Standard Chartered describes the new launch as a proprietary tree-based model designed to generate a forecast for Brent crude spot prices on a one-week timeframe...Prior to the release of Standard Chartered’s SCORPIO model, Rigzone asked several market participants if AI can predict the oil price. The answer to that question was no, according to Alex Stevens, the Manager of Policy and Communications at the Institute for Energy Research (IER), which describes itself as a not for profit organization that conducts intensive research and analysis on the functions, operations, and government regulation of global energy markets."

(6/1/23) reports: "The Biden administration is poised to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to subsidize the purchase of electric school buses despite the tendency of e-buses to catch fire. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has made an additional $500 million available to help rebate recipients to transform their school bus fleets from diesel to electric, a round of funding that builds upon an earlier $1 billion made available via the program, the EPA announced Thursday. Several electric buses have caught fire across the country in recent months, a trend mostly attributable to malfunctions in their lithium-ion batteries, according to the Institute for Energy Research. 'Thanks to President Biden’s Investing in America agenda, more students, teachers, and staff are breathing easier this school year as brand-new clean school buses are hitting the road in communities across America,' EPA Administrator Michael Regan said. 'We’ve seen incredible demand for this program from school
districts that want to benefit from the transition to cleaner school buses, leading to cost savings for districts, better air quality and less pollution.' Electric buses have burst into flames due to battery malfunctions in Wichita, Kansas, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, San Jose, California, and Hamden, Connecticut, since July 2022, according to local reports. The Hamden e-bus fire resulted in a decision to pull the city’s entire e-bus fleet off the roads after it had received praise from Democratic Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont and Sen. Chris Murphy."
