Last week I’ve found out that Australia is going to be the third country in the world getting an electric car network! The company behind this initiative is called “better place” and they’re now collaborating with AGL and Macquarie bank to establish a network of electric cars, charge spots and battery exchange stations. Better place goals are sustainable transportation, global energy independence and freedom from oil. I like what they’re doing on their site especially a nifty little idea called: “10 word manifesto”, where you can tell the world the reason why you think we must end our addiction to oil. You can also ebbed and share yours on your blog!
I can’t wait to drive one of these cars myself. I just wish their cars would look as sexy as Tesla’s:
It is marvelous that Australia is involved in a forward thinking project like setting up an EV network. Electric vehicles will soon change the way we travel and the way that we so heavily rely on fossil fuels at this time.
