Important decision for #V2G in Germany: parliament approves a legislative amendment that exempts electricity stored and supplied by bidirectional charging cars from energy tax and network costs. This makes the business case viable (and equivalent to large stationary batteries).

I think my lvl 2 juicebox charger might be dead. It's not charging my car but the level 1 charger works fine.

All the lights on the juicebox seem to show it working. But who knows since there is no app support for it any more.

Why there is no tsunami of waste #EV batteries. And look at the EV share in Ukraine 🇺🇦. Why it is important to get V2G/V2L working for older EVs right now.

This September saw a historic moment. For the first time, more EVs than fuel cars passed through 🇳🇴 Oslo city's toll ring.

Wow! How did they even?? 😯 The weather conditions must've been perfect, but nevertheless, that's seriously impressive. There's no way my ID.Buzz (with a larger battery) would get anywhere near that range on a single charge.

Once again had to download a stupid app and spend ten minutes by the side of the road faffing with my phone to charge the car. This is such a huge barrier to entry for so many people, I do not know why you cannot just plug your car in and swipe a bank card, it is ridiculous. No wonder people stick to petrol cars, at petrol stations you can just swipe your card and fill up. It's inexcusable that it isn't the same experience for electric, there's no good reason for it. #ev #rant

“Basically, no matter what anyone tells you, a plug in hybrid is just a more complex petrol car. You are always either hauling a useless engine around or hauling a useless battery around. It will require the same amount of servicing as any petrol or diesel vehicle, it has thousands more components than an electric vehicle, thousands of components that can and will eventually fail.

😤 Els Rent a Car ja no estaran obligats a tenir un mínim de cotxes elèctrics.

🗣️ La patronal dels grans #RentaCar: "Nos estaban obligando a ir hacia una tecnología para la que Baleares no está preparada".

🙌 Doncs aquí estam nosaltres, demostrant des del 2017 que sí és possible compartir cotxes elèctrics al 100%.

@jbz We should say it as it is. There is a low demand of old, imperfect, not evolving #EV

The iteration speed of Chinese manufacturers, the biggest purchasing power globally represented by 20-30 year olds look at the Porsche as "grand dads car"

They are not SDV, they do not connect your life to the car when entering it. What Chinese buyers consider a car is not in the Porsche offerings.

Backpedaling will not help Porsche
