China is introducing new regulatory standards for electric car batteries that will represent some of the strictest safety and testing requirements in the world. Set to take effect on July 1, 2026, the “Safety Requirements for Power Batteries of Electric Vehicles” will essentially prohibit fires and explosions even after thermal propagation, or the spread of an uncontrolled temperature increase from one battery cell to another. Electric car fires are already rare, and some critics contend that C

In a nutshell: For more than half a century, the relentless progress of Moore's Law has driven engineers to double the number of transistors on a chip approximately every two years, fueling exponential growth in computing power. Yet as chips have become denser and more powerful, a formidable adversary has emerged: heat. Rising temperatures within modern CPUs and GPUs have far-reaching consequences that impact performance and power consumption. Over time, excessive heat slows critical signal prop

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. It’s not the first geothermal deal for Google. In November, geothermal startup Fervo connected a 3.5-megawatt power plant to the grid as part of an

Around 66 million years ago, an asteroid between six and ten miles (10 to 15 kilometers) wide slammed into what is now the Gulf of Mexico, leaving behind a massive 90-mile-wide (150 kilometers) crater. The impact killed all non-avian dinosaurs and decimated marine creatures—but may have also boosted life in a peculiar way. A team of international researchers suggests that the asteroid impact created a hydrothermal system within the Chicxulub crater, as it’s officially known, which may have nurt

There’s a power crunch looming as AI and cloud providers ramp up data center construction. But a new report suggests that a solution lies beneath their foundations. Advanced geothermal power could supply nearly two-thirds of new data center demand by 2030, according to an analysis by the Rhodium Group. The additions would quadruple the amount of geothermal power capacity in the U.S. — from 4 gigawatts to about 16 gigawatts — while costing the same or less than what data center operators pay tod

Residents in the German town of Geretsried have long wanted to run their buildings with clean heat and electricity from geothermal energy instead of fossil fuels. Their hopes were dashed about 15 years ago when a drilling company couldn’t find enough hot water close to the surface to be profitable using traditional geothermal technology. That basically left them with natural gas. “We gave up. We had big hopes,” recalled First Mayor of Geretsried Michael Müller, who was raised in the town. Tod

North Milford Valley, in western Utah, is home to dormant volcanoes, subterranean lava deposits, and smatterings of obsidian—black volcanic glass—that Paiute peoples once collected for arrowheads and jewelry. Scalding groundwater still bubbles to the surface in places. In such a landscape, you remember that the planet’s hard exterior, where we spend our entire lives, is so thin that we call it a crust. Its superheated interior, meanwhile, burns with an estimated forty-four trillion watts of powe
