The Hybrid Field Motor: Using Half Rare-Earth Magnets, Cheaper, Same Performance for EVs

The hybrid field motor works by generating a magnetic force by synchronizing a permanent magnet and an electromagnet. The main advantage is that hybrid field motors only use half of the amount of rare-earth magnet, compared to a synchronous motor, that you can see in today's hybrid or electric vehicles.

Jet Engine-Like Wind Turbine – 4 Times More Efficient

Here's an invention that should capture more of the world's attention, because it can capture more of the world's winds. Flodesign's "jet engine"-shaped wind turbine has a slightly different way of seeing the wind flow, and by this it is three to four times more efficient.
