Now that Discovery Africa is in the phosphate/lithium business whose end customers are electric cars, it came to my notice that a German designer has come up with a cheap and novel solution to "running on empty".
The young designer has proposed using power points installed on every day lamp posts to "fill up" electric cars short of charge.
All you do is plug in a short lead from your parked car to the post. Simple .... and at just over 300 euros a pop to install the power point it will be cheap compared to a service station.
A cheap solution like this could help overcome fears, often expressed, about electric cars running out of charge.
