Bank to Put Up Charging Stations
A group of banks in California will be putting up ev charging stations that will be powered by solar panels so that their customers can charge their car while they are in the bank doing their banking business. This is a new way that businesses can draw clients to various businesses such as banks, restaurants and chain malls.
The company that will be doing this is called SolarCity and the bank that is doing this is called Rabobank and it has its first charing station in Santa Maria. It is going to have charge point charging stations installed. The bank plans to build a network of four charging stations from Los Angeles to San Francisco and is considering putting solar panels on the banks themselves. The bank is going to make the stations free to its patrons.
These stations will be paid for by California Air Resource Board and are not fuded by the bank. This is a great new way of using charge stations.
Electric Cars the way of the future
People say that the ev is the future but is the electric car improving? Electric cars use Lithium batteries similar to the ones that are in our cell phones.
But are these batteries going to be too expensive to replace?
They say it will be expensive to put charging stations everywhere as well, so will it be cost effective to go green. only time will tell.
Electric cars and safety
The safety aspect of near-silent electric cars is also of concern, because people cannot here when you approach them when there is no sound to the car.
The manufacturers say they will install some sort of noise when the car is moving to alert pedestrians.
