To separate EV fact from fiction, one needs to look further into the electrification revolution occurring in the automotive industry. According to the International Energy Agency, 300 million electric cars could be on the road by 2030. There’s no denying EV popularity growth and increasing global market share.

But what are the issues, challenges, and opportunities in the ever-critical battery segment within EV? Batteries and energy storage are two musts in propelling an EV future. Still, determining EV fact from fiction gets sticky in the electrification movement, especially in the automotive industry. What’s the truth behind the hype, and how does EV technology’s reality match people’s expectations?

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise buys Infratec to move from rooftops into utility-scale solar

Sunergise is buying Infratec from WEL Networks for an undisclosed price. The commercial rooftop specialist, which has installed more than 50MW, gains utility-scale project delivery capability it did not have before.

  • 01By megawatts, the buyer is the smaller company: Sunergise has installed more than 50MW since 2012, while Infratec has built 194MW of solar and 49MWh of batteries.
  • 02Customers with live projects at either company keep their existing contracts and service commitments, but whether Infratec keeps its own name is still undecided.

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

TGS plans $100M Perito Moreno expansion to move 4.5M more cubic meters a day

Transportadora de Gas del Sur (TGS) wants to spend $100 million adding 4.5 million cubic meters a day to Argentina's Perito Moreno pipeline, which carries 21 million today. The request awaits Energy Secretariat approval. It comes alongside a $550 million compression project due by late April 2027 that will add 14 million cubic meters a day.

  • 01The $100 million add-on comes alongside an ongoing $550 million compression project on the same pipeline, and TGS plans to submit $70 million of the new spending under Argentina's RIGI investment incentive regime.
  • 02If the compression work and the 4.5 million option both deliver, Perito Moreno's first phase could carry substantially more than its current 21 million cubic meters a day.
  • 03Two milestones could set the pace: the Energy Secretariat's decision on TGS's October 8 request, and late April 2027, when three compression plants are scheduled to add 14 million cubic meters a day.

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Sami Alnuaim's new book pushes oil fields toward making their own decisions

Intelligent oil field plans hit a scale problem. Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never get past pilots, and scaling depends on funding, data ownership and engineering skills.

  • 01Roughly 70% of oil and gas digital initiatives never make it out of the pilot stage.
  • 02A sharper procurement question: which decisions can the system be trusted to make?
  • 03Emissions and safety are leading candidates for scaling intelligent workflows, where data sharing may face less resistance.
