BBC report on wireless charging for EVs

Actually, the term is "pipe dream". This is not a solution to any problem currently facing EV, not a real solution. The problem is battery capacity and cost, a problem that will resolve itself eventually. Putting vast changes into the infrastructure to try and resolve it isn't reasonable and absolutely there will be no substantially rolled out wireless charging system in any country for many years, if ever.

 

You'll find the BBC out to show EV's in a negative light. There are many articles that either show the ridiculous such as the above link and then others where they put EV's in situations they're not designed for and watch them fail.

A recent one was to show electric vans in a positive light. Hmmm, ok I thought, lets see. The had a delivery van driver use an electric van in London and he found it ok but a bit slow, but then balked at the cost - a massive £54,000. The conclusion was that electric vehicles are all very well but totally unaffordable.

What they didn't mention is that Renault already offer a van, with warranty for £16,500 inc 20% sales tax. Funny that.

It is said that the International version of the BBC website (ie the same website but with adverts where our local tv listings appear) has adverts for big oil - Texaco, Shell, BP etc, though we in the UK can't see these ads. Despite being impartial, could it be that their facts are influenced by the big $'s from oil adverts? The BBC are also responsible for Top Gear.
