In the near future (not too near) we will see a significant acceleration of the transition from a transport system based on oil to another based on electric cars. The transformation will concern many aspects of mobility and will not neglect an omnipresent element in our routine as travellers: what will the service stations of the future be like? More catering, no petrol The profits of the old "petrol stations" could drop vertically, and we will witness a transformation that will make these refueling points a middle ground... Read more
Ah, electric bikes! Comfortable, anarchic, they can give us motor and energetic independence. Almost. The only problem is the difficulty of carrying them with you on buses, trains and other means. Gi Bike aims to solve this problem: it is a brand new electric bike capable of folding with a single movement, in just one second. With a full charge, this little gem offers almost 60km of autonomy: and is fully equipped, with integrated padlock, cell phone charger, lights... Read more
AFS (Engineers at Air Fuel Synthesis) based in the north of England claims to have produced 5 liters of synthetic oil in the space of 3 months. It's a little bit, you might say. And give me a break. The technique consists of extracting carbon dioxide from the air and hydrogen from the water, then combining them in a reactor which produces methanol with the help of a catalyst. The methanol is then converted into oil. Now have you understood why it takes 3 months for 5 liters? Not exactly the time that… Read more
