Americans Republicans just sitting by watching this happen. Are they β€œonly following orders”?

Is that the FT that constantly allows FUD about renewables?

Let’s not besmirch the bean counters, they would sigh off EVs in a heart beat, it’s the petrostate government both producing and protecting the lies of the fossil fuel lobby.

They can barely get any oil out there.

Usually its better to go through the front door even if you know the downstairs bathroom window doesn’t lock.

That’s a huge step, whilst you get β€œfree” medical staff, you lose all credibility and businesses won’t invest in private healthcare services in the future. Best to take advantage of the companies whilst building your own capabilities

It takes many years to recruit and train medical professionals, Labour have been in power 20 months.

Ahh, I understand your confusion. Labour have increased use of private sector companies TO CLEAR the waiting lists that built up under Tories.

And Trump was even too stupid to refill the Federal Fuel Reserve before starting his war.

Please post links to where Labour are talking about privatisation of the NHS.

I wonder what motor the 59kWh battery model comes with? I haven’t seen a 140kW motor in the ID.3

The talks coming from where? If it’s Farage and Co. we can just look at their recent election results and infighting to strike that one off.

It’s ok, it would be better if your lot stopped attacking countries and causing energy inflation though.
Wait until you hear about our free personal bank to bank instant transfers, contactless payments and universal healthcare!

Hi Simon, is the 2.4% drop independent from the coal use? As comments are pointing to burning trees to negate the former.

Can you see why us Brits threw them out a few centuries ago?

I have to admit, a few weeks ago I thought β€œwe need a tanker driver strike” or the rumour of one to energise EV take up. Little did I know the orange pedo had plans.

Hi Robin, there seems to be lines on your map, generally east to west, what are those please?

The roll out of chargers is ahead of the demand. Around 60-70% of UK homes have off street parking close enough to their property to have a home charger. It’s estimated that there are around 1.3 million home chargers installed.

You still can’t do a personal bank to bank transfer in the US in most cases, you have to use a third party (paid for) method! Most of Africa has better banking than the US.

Existing and β€œnear production” batteries all balance β€œcharge speed / energy density / number of cycles”. Unless we see all of those, and material costs and price, it’s all just a bit of fluff.

Indeed, if I can be bothered I’ll be on octopus IO in spring, I’m just waiting to see what happens with smart tariffs

Does anyone know what to expect from Smart Tariffs? I’m on Cosy, around 14p kWh for parts of the day. Will the suppliers just pocket the 3.5p kWh tax reduction?

Are Tesla trying to get onto the UK grant scheme?

It looks like the battery recycling plants are going to have a few more lean years.
Charge cube exclusively uses re-purposed EV batteries to turn a 3 phase AC socket into a DC rapid charger or two.
It’s even on wheels, so you can move it around your car park.

It’s a solution for people who don’t drive and hate EVs.
We’re starting to get 1MW pillars with two CCS2 plugs on here in Europe, up to 600kW on each plug with dynamic sharing.
As you said, useful for the big trucks, I believe the eActros 600 has a 600kW CCS2 port, some also have 1MW MCS too.

Here in the UK they whine about reducing food production too. However over 2% of our farm land grows ethanol crops, with proved less than 1% of the fuel for ICE cars. The same amount of solar could power all the power for all land transport if they were EVs.

Oh well, we just choose one of the other small affordable EVs here in Europe.

It appears that the dildo of consequences has indeed arrived unlubricated.

This is sweet, when did the 🍊 πŸ’© ever pay his bills? He entirely believes that stiffing people he owns money to is β€œthe art of the deal”.
