Re: [EVDL] EV-Spotting in London

[Lawrence Rhodes via EV]

The Brits are very practical people and don't spend a cent unless they need to. 
 They obviously did the math.  BTW solar puts out even in cloudy climates.  
Maybe more on a sunny day.  Solar panels like bright sun with cool 
temperatures.  They are more efficient  that way.  Lawrence Rhodes...

Bruce,

I used to live in Bristol. Actually, Bristol is one of the more
forward-thinking cities in the UK when it comes to renewable energy. And
EVs. I used to regularly drive form Bristol to London (thanks to the
Ecotricity Electric Highway) in both our LEAF and our Volt. Always saw more
EVs in Bristol than I did in London.

How long are you in the area for?

Nikki.

If you drive through the countryside (like I did last year) you will see
solar huge farms. One was a fiels of solar panels about 1km long by 500m
wide. Thought UK was the worst place for solar due to the weather

Yes, London England. Well, I thought the price alone would steer drivers
toward EVs, even if eco concerns did not.

Today I saw more rooftop solar around Bristol than I've seen in all of VA,
NJ, AZ and Bahamas combined. Maybe electricity is very pricey.

Re: [EVDL] EV-Spotting in London

[Paul Dove via EV]

Only 47% of UK adults believe that individual efforts to limit their own impact 
on climate change are worthwhile, although this rises to 70% of readers and 
users of the Guardian and Observer, who tend to be more eco-conscious.

The research further shows that 40% of UK adults think that pollution from 
other countries makes our efforts irrelevant, falling to 17% among the GNM 
audience.

The study mirrors other recent research that shows that consumers are not 
prepared to pay a premium for more ethical goods and services.

More than that, more complex or expensive purchases such as solar panels, 
electric vehicles, travelling by train abroad and ethical loans remain beyond 
the means or desires of the majority.

[EVDL] EV-Spotting in London

[Bruce Lawton via EV]

I'm in London this week and surprised at the lack of EVs. I see more on my 
northern Virginia commute than I've seen all week here. Gas is £1.22/liter 
($6.14/gal), which of course is much more than home.

Why so few EVs here?
