In Brief Google will add 10 megawatts of geothermal power in Taiwan to its renewable portfolio, the company announced Tuesday, marking the search giant’s first geothermal investment in Asia. Swedish company Baseload Capital is developing the project through a local subsidiary, which has been mapping the island for geothermal resources since 2019.

Every time I see “mAh” on a consumer product, I cringe. Megahertz are starting to bruise, too. That’s because the most critical components of portable gadgets — batteries and processors — should really be measured in watts: it’s the one common spec that gives you a real idea of what your device can do.

If you currently have Xfinity, the NOW online signup is hidden, but when I called to cancel my Xfinity service on a date a couple weeks in the future, the NOW signup started working immediately. (I initially queried a neighbor's address to confirm that NOW was available in my area.) The catch is tha

Other MagSafe Power Banks to Consider Photograph: Simon Hill We like a few other MagSafe power banks that didn’t make it into our top picks. Scosche PBQ5MS2 Portable MagSafe Phone Charger for $45: Slim, decent magnets, four LEDs to show remaining power, and a wee USB-C cable in the box—so far, so familiar. There’s nothing really wrong with this 5,000-mAh MagSafe power bank, but charging (wireless and wired) maxes out at 10 watts, and you can get better performers for the same money above. Ba

So why are we not seeing an explosion in ATT investment and deployment in the US? Because despite their potential to unlock 21st-century technology, the 20th-century structure of the nation’s electricity markets discourages adoption of these solutions. For one thing, under the current regulatory system, utilities generally make money by passing the cost of big new developments along to customers (earning a fixed annual return on their investment). That comes in the form of higher electricity ra
