When you ask people about cleaner energy, they think of electricity,” says Tommi Eronen, CEO of Polar Night Energy. The electrical grid also supports the efficient distribution of power and makes use of energy generated through renewable means like wind and solar. We cannot possibly build full-size prototypes to test all of our ideas.
The Truth About Cars
