Tuesday, October 11, 2022 16 Tishrei 5783

7:30 PM - 9:00 PMIn person and Zoom

Stan Feuerberg will speak on the challenges for the US electric energy supply and the electrification of the nation's transportation system. Electric Vehicles (EVs) have captured the imaginations of futurists, vehicle manufacturers, and public officials at local, state, and federal levels. Challenges lie ahead - battery technology remains in its infancy, recharging depleted batteries requires electric infrastructure enhancements, procuring the raw materials for the manufacture of batteries has become increasingly difficult, and the disposal of spent batteries has significant environmental impacts that are rarely discussed. Stan will address these and related issues.
