Danish Minister for Transport Trine Bramsen, Aalborg municipal government representatives, and European media were invited to witness the first test runs of Geely methanol vehicles on Danish roads and visit the e-methanol production facility at Aalborg University. Both have their own advantages and together complement each other, Geely says.

It’s really hard to beat a week in Iceland. With the conference over, we went on a tour tracking down electric cars and the clean electricity to power them. With our Icelandic Camera Operator Bjorn Helgason. Shooting in a rain storm at the Blue Lagoon. That could definitely be in its future.
