EV Channels Review
This 'Fully Charged News' update covers a range of significant developments in the EV and energy sectors. The host expresses strong opposition to fracking, citing its economic unsustainability and environmental risks, contrasting it with the public's support for offshore wind. A major highlight is Jaguar's commitment to becoming 100% electric by 2025, with all models except one going fully electric, a move bolstered by the success of the I-PACE. The review notes the I-PACE's Austrian production but emphasizes Jaguar's UK manufacturing plans and battery supply chain. The potential of hydrogen fuel cell technology is explored, particularly for trains, with the host suggesting it's more viable for heavy transport than small passenger vehicles. Volkswagen's ambitious plan to electrify its Zwickau plant is also discussed. Finally, the overwhelming success of the Tesla Model 3 in the US market is highlighted, attributing Tesla's production advantage to in-house battery manufacturing and a lack of legacy internal combustion engine infrastructure. The segment concludes with a brief mention of a plastic boat made from recycled materials.
