Surely Not! Solar Panels and Electric Charging Points

It's 90 minutes once a fortnight on average. If you absolutely need to drive an electric car wouldn't it be very easy to plan your journey and charge en route for the very few people traveling such a long distance to games?

Seems like moaning for moanings sake to me.

 

I can't imagine the charging points would be for accessible for fans on a matchday. Probably mainly for staff and official visitors during the week

 

Most places now have charge points for staff although not enough to facilitate the amount of electric vehicles planned in the future.

 

Agree, I have one , even though it can do 320 miles in summer, I plan accordingly. There will be so many electric cars by 2030, they couldn’t supply enough charge points at grounds.

Best way, when they do eventually “invest” whilst Odsal is being filled in. Turn an area into a huge park and ride scheme , as well as “ affordable “ housing.

 

That would be the scenario for sure.

 

We will definitely be announcing an extension of the lease, that is without question. When remains to be seen but City will never move from Valley Parade.

 

As said earlier Rod , technology is advancing and as it does costs of high tech , lightweight panels will drop. This backward country could solve lots of its energy supplies by thought and huge investments in the right place.
Take for example electricity generation. Well thought out investments in supplying and fitting arrays of solar on the millions of UK roofs could and would have a huge impact in lessening our use of gas.
Supply the householder whose roofs they are fitted with free electric and the remainder of which there will be lots, goes to the National grid. Once a battery is full , just export surplus generation direct to the grid.

 

How ever the value of your car is dropping like a stone.

EV’a losing around 5k on value already. In a month or so as supply is too high.

Stay away from these cars.

 

I sold my EV in OcT 2022 , 10 k on the clock , 16 months old, non runner , for more than I paid for it. I’ll say it again….

With regards to used car prices they are ALL dropping and have been since Xmas. Don’t just be selective suggesting it’s EV’s only. People who know can easily make you look silly.

All that’s happening is the used car market is stabilising BACK to how it used to be , pre pandemic, pr Ukraine war because component supply, especially chips and wiring looms are now enabling ALL manufacturers of ALL vehicle types Electric or Fossil to supply customers , hence pressure off the used car market.

Anything else you need to trip up over Fordy?

 

EV are losing money quicker. Cheaper to have a petrol or diesel car. Supply is up 303% on Ev’s in the last 4 weeks. It’s a buyers market hence why prices are falling so quickly. So, no not tripped up because a lot has changed since October. Fuel coming down, electric gone up and supply for the cars silly.

Why would you want to waste time charging a car? This country isn’t ready for EV’s.

So, you think you can change the world in your electric nonsense without understanding everyone needs to change before change can really happen.

 

Self charging hybrid is much better in my opinion

 

Back tracking in your first sentence. Once that occurs the rest is drivel .
Name the TWO worldwide manufacturers who dropped prices in the last month after spending the last 12 months putting them UP on three seperate occasions.

TWO ARE?

 

As I said new tech is being developed, which you kindly repeated.

 

Rare-earth does not mean 'rare' as in 'scarce', because they most of them aren't rare at all.

'Rare-earth', now, is pretty much a nonsense term.

They're found at similar concentrations to common metals, and often found together.

Cerium is extremely abundant, neodymium is abundant, lanthanum also abundant.

Gold is massively more rare than the rarest 'rare-earth' metal.

Part of the issue is most of the mining is done in China, but not because it's more abundant there; because they're slack, and have been prepared to rush and forsake ecological consequences.

Rare-earths are spread evenly throughout the world, as they're the product of a specific time/layer of the Earth's evolution.

They just found a bunch in Arctic Sweden that can be mined, the issue is finding more than can be mined, and mining it safely.

Each continent needs to start mining rare-earths, basically, but yeah.

They're not rare, at all.

 

It’s soulless and like driving an iPad. Sod off musky.
