Your new EV could do with a shot of caffeine. And AI
In one of many novel discoveries uncovered by scientists in the alternative-energy field, researchers in Japan have found a way to boost efficiency and trim costs. Their secret is caffeine.

Exxon is developing what is expected to be the world's largest low-carbon hydrogen production plant at its Baytown Complex east of Houston in Texas, with an annual output capacity of about 900,000 metric tons of hydrogen and more than 1 million tons of ammonia. The project aims to start production in 2028.
During the proceedings, the delegates presented updates on their countries' hydrogen strategies, detailing national initiatives in research and development, policy formulation, and infrastructure development aimed at fostering a robust hydrogen economy.
The tension between the need for energy affordability—India had an energy import bill of $185 billion in 2022—and the country’s commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve net zero by 2070 presents a problem of enormous scale and complexity.
According to the scheme, the hub should have a capacity of at least 100,000 MTPA
Hydrogen is a fuel that the administration of President Joe Biden sees as crucial to reducing use of fossil fuels and cutting emissions from hard-to decarbonize industries such as aluminum and cement.
Given the trend from April to February, the automaker is poised to cross the 8 lakh mark in the current fiscal, against 6.9 lakh units in FY'23, the official said.
At a significant stakeholder interaction convened on March 7, 2024, PNGRB, in collaboration with the World Bank and ICF, deliberated on a draft report aimed at carving out "Pathways for Hydrogen transmission in Natural gas pipelines and City Gas Distribution networks".
This pilot program funded by the Department of Energy is also targeting the creation of green hydrogen through electrolysis for rapid refuelling
The output would be raised to 10-20 million tons by 2050, including green hydrogen, according to a government document detailing the strategy reviewed by Reuters.
"Green hydrogen -- produced through processes with substantially low carbon emission -- will play a key role in India's energy transition particularly in the sectors of industry and heavy-duty commercialisation," a CCMB release quoted Lele as saying.
