One cornerstone of the policy is cheap gas. Pandering politicians have ensured the true cost of gas remains shrouded in tax policy and the defense budget. Now the pressures of a changing global market have provoked a precipitous rise in gasoline prices for the heretofore protected American driver. Wouldn’t that just be amazing?

Charged : You recently wrote, “Commercial vehicle battery packs are tough to source.” Is the supply of battery packs going to be a bottleneck? Rustam Kocher: I think it’s going to be an issue for any company that has a large battery pack. Also, the demands for medium- and heavy-duty battery packs are much more complex.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. We will own the battery. We will always own the batteries,&# said Mr. Thesen.
