Daily on Energy ⚡ — Gas stove drama, Burgum touts domestic energy, and Sullivan returns from Asia
THE LATEST: Speaker Kevin McCarthy said he intends to hold votes today to advance legislation limiting the government’s ability to regulate natural gas stoves, though he is still working through issues with those members who voted “no” yesterday.
KAKHOVA DAM EXPLOSION THREATENS DISASTER FOR UKRAINE’S SOUTH: Ukraine’s chief prosecutor announced an investigation into the explosion of the Kakhova dam, which flooded the country’s south and forced the evacuation of tens of thousands of residents. But it is also expected to take a massive environmental toll — one that could last for decades.
“We can assume all ecosystems and human settlements downstream the Dnipro River will be affected,” Anna Ackerman, a board member with Ukraine’s environmental nonprofit group Ecoaction, told Bloomberg. The two met with high ranking officials in both countries, including their respective national security advisers and foreign ministers, and urged them to “make this project a priority,” a spokesperson for Sullivan said.
BURGUM ENTERS GOP RACE WITH DRILL-AT-HOME MESSAGE: North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum has entered the GOP presidential mix pushing for an increase of domestic energy production.

Wearable energy harvesting-storage hybrid textiles as on-body self-charging power systemsThe rapid development of wearable electronics requires its energy supply part to be flexible, wearable, integratable and sustainable. However, some of the energy supply units cannot meet these requirements at the same time, and there is also a capacity limitation of the energy storage units, and the development of sustainable wearable self-charging power supplies is crucial. Here, we report a wearable sustainable energy harvesting-storage hybrid self-charging power textile. The power textile consists of a coaxial fiber-shaped polylactic acid/reduced graphene oxide/polypyrrole (PLA-rGO-PPy) triboelectric nanogenerator (fiber-TENG) that can harvest low-frequency and irregular energy during human motion as a power generation unit, and a novel coaxial fiber-shaped supercapacitor (fiber-SC) prepared by functionalized loading of a wet-spinning graphene oxide fiber as an energy storage unit. The fiber-TENG is flexible, knittable, wearable and adaptable for integration with various portable electronics. The coaxial fiber-SC has high volumetric energy density and good cycling stability. The fiber-TENG and fiber-SC are flexible yarn structures for wearable continuous human movement energy harvesting and storage as on-body self-charging power systems, with light-weight, ease of preparation, great portability and wide applicability. The integrated power textile can provide an efficient route for sustainable working of wearable electronics.
