I can not speak for everyone, but there is a vast majority out there who is interested in the electric automotive sector. However, we have not seen much growth in this sector. Is it because the companies are not organized enough to support the customer demand? There is one company out there who is grabbing the bull by it’s horns and doing something about it. That company is called Better Place electric car company.
Better Place electric car company has their technology centered around cars being produced by the French automobile giant Renault-Nissan. You might even see them on the road in 2011. They are accelerating the global transition to sustainable transportation. As good as this sounds, there are those who seem to be angered with the company already. Some find them monopolizing in some places. Israel, as an example, has “favored” them as the electric car company of choice.
This view may all change with the help of another company, ETV Motors. The company just announced a radically new concept to extend the range of the lithium ion battery cell packs that will be fueling these cars. They are developing a unique micro- turbine device that will be able to extend the range of the battery cell packs to up to twice the present driving range of 130 -160 km. ETV’s COO said, “the micro turbine device will be able to “create electricity while driving.” I don’t know about you, but that blows me away! The turbine utilizes a specially series of rotary blades, which will be located at the rear of the car’s undercarriage and will provide power by a rotating “universal joint” to the battery pack in the center of the car.
