Today in Professional Attributes, we watched a recording of Shai Agassi speaking at a TED conference back in February 2009 about electric vehicles. A very bold plan indeed, and it will be interesting to see how they will roll out an entire electric freeway to cover the large distances between Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Perhaps this will not be necessary if we had a high speed train link between them, with the ability to freely hire EVs at the destination.
It was just recently announced that Better Place will begin rolling out an EV network in Canberra by 2011. It will be a fantastic place to these showcase types of vehicles in Australia, and I am already looking for ways to get involved in this project in the future.
