Matt had the chance to chat with Dr. Ramin Mehdipour and Professor Seamus Garvey from the University of Nottingham about their research into ice source heat pumps. They have a novel idea for reusing the UK’s natural gas pipe network to deliver non-potable water into heat pumps for heat. The coolest part of the idea is just that … they turn the water into ice to make the heat.

Matt had an opportunity to talk to the co-founders of Edison Motors, Chace Barber and Eric Little, about how they’re electrifying trucks. Not just any kind of truck, but the heavy, workhorse trucks used in everything from deliveries to hauling logs for the timber industry. Their approach is really unique and one that makes you wonder, why haven’t we been doing this all along.
