    Electric Vehicles (EVs) are becoming more prevalent across all major world automotive markets. The growth of EVs is being powered by impressive improvements in new battery technology, along with renewable energy advances that have dramatically lowered the costs for a generation of pollution-free electricity. Colleges and universities are challenged to respond to this change, especially those with legacy automotive and transportation programs and those with clean energy technology programs. This study gathered experiences from several U.S. colleges on the leading edge of this trend. Challenges are identified for the deployment of EV charging infrastructure on campus, and recommendations are provided for those seeking to integrate EV charging technology into the curriculum and instruction of existing science, technology, engineering, and math programs.

    Nanoporous metal oxide ceramic coatings, deposited using sol-gel techniques, have the potential to impart self-sintering and self-cleaning coatings to silicon oxide glass. When used on solar photovoltaic modules, these coatings can impart anti-static properties, improve wetting behavior, and degrade soiling deposits through photocatalytic activity. This paper reports on a field trial of a mixed silicon and titanium oxide thin film coating conducted in the upper midwestern U.S. Coated modules demonstrated increased electrical generation relative to uncoated controls. The results are encouraging for the commercialization of this coating technology, and provide a strong motivation for further research and development efforts.
