According to our fish, families, freedom representative, EVs "don't make sense" where electricity is expensive and diesel-generated. I want to check her math, but it's hard to find gas prices in rural What's the cost of gas where electricity costs $0.67/KWh?
ktoo.org/2023/09/11/national-p
What do you pay for gas and power in rural ? In Gustavus our power is about to go from $0.39 to $0.54/KWh. I don't know our gas price; I'll have to drive my to check the pump!

energy secretary Jennifer Granholm went on a road trip tour in an electric vehicle to prove how great electric vehicles are.
They ran into trouble almost immediately as they found not enough charging stations.
She sent her staff ahead with a gas car and had them reserve a spot for her at the electric stations.
A family ended up calling the police because her staff was using gas cars to block electric vehicles from using the stations.

According to this report, 10% of all vehicles sold in Canada Q2 were either battery-electric or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. That's nothing close to Norway's 79% electric vehicles sold last year – but still nearly double the percentage of electric vehicles that were sold in Canada only two years ago in 2021.

(Also: it's interesting to see that 1 in 5 cars sold in BC Q1 were EV!)

Heute wurden sämtliche Bauteile für dir -Anlage gelierfert.

Der Fahrer der Speditionsfirma wollte aber nicht wieder losfahren, ohne vorher noch seine Bedenken bezüglich Stromspeicher und ( ) kundzutun.

„Also ich hätte ja Angst, dass die Dinger irgendwann mal explodieren.“

„Hmm“…, erwidere ich, „So gesehen hat 'ne Gasleitung hat natürlich Vorteile. Wenn die hochgeht, haben die Nachbarn wenigstens auch was davon.“

Kurze Denkpause beim Gegenüber.

„Ja, stimmt auch wieder.“

Viktor Orbán wants to turn Hungary into a 'major battery powerhouse'.

Some 30 factories are expected to make the country one of the world leaders in electric car batteries by 2030. Local residents are worried about the consequences of this rapid industrialisation.

I post this occasionally, was reminded of it when a friend asked me which EV to buy. If you are concerned about range primarily, this is an excellent starting point.

The Orkney islands are to test two electric ferries for commuting between its outlying islands as part of efforts to cut carbon emissions from shipping.

The battery-powered hydrofoil ferries, whose hulls are raised above the water, are part of a three-year, £15.5m demonstration project funded by the UK government, due to start in March 2024.

Someone should let our Secretary of Energy know that "ICEing" chargers is not polite and certainly not a great way to promote EVs. I don't know if it was her call, but it's a pretty bad look to travel with an entourage, including a lead car so far ahead of the group that when it ICEs a charger, there's enough time for the police to respond.

Car manufacturer Stellantis opened a €40M EV battery tech centre in Italy.

The Mirafiori Battery Technology Centre is 8,000 square metres in total, which makes it the largest battery testing facility in Italy, and one of the largest in Europe.

The move is part of a plan to expand battery building capacity to 400GWh — and significantly reduce battery weight.
