Lots of excitable misinformation being spread by the likes of @NetZeroWatch about this fire on the M5
A couple of facts/points to consider
1 - we have no idea how fire started, could have been with diesel-engined transporter
1/2
A stretch of the M5 has been closed in both directions due to a fire on a lorry carrying electric vehicles.
EVs continue to go up in flames. When are our politicians going to have a serious conversation about the safety risk of electric vehicles?
On the show this week we address a segment of the potential EV-owning population that have been somewhat neglected so far: people who live in flats and apartments.

In the final clip from this week’s episode I talk about another sort of charging subscription: subscription charging for apartment dwellers using domestic electricity rates via Chargeguru

On this week’s episode we look at subscriptions and how to reduce your public charging costs using them.
How can you work out if a subscription is cost-effective?

I had the good folks from @Cleevely_Mobile out to service the car yesterday.
Excellent job. Great work.

What a journey!
10 years ago almost 40% of UK electricity was from coal.
Today the UK's last remaining coal-fired power station is Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station in Nottinghamshire, England, which is scheduled to close on September 30, 2024.

Today’s episode is a case study on ‘Bob’.
He got his first EV and went out to do public charging totally unprepared.
We look at what he did wrong so you can avoid doing the same.
If you’re new to EV public charging this one’s for you.

I’m interested in non EV drivers’ perceptions:
In the UK, would you say that the number of places you can refuel an ICE vehicle:
… the number of places you can charge an EV?
Retweet for reach, please!

For clarity:
I’m not looking for the actual numbers (I know them). I’m looking for perceptions
I’m not looking for comments about grid capacity (I know it)
I’m just looking for reach and replies:
‘greatly outnumbers’
‘slightly outnumbers’
‘is outnumbered by’
Thank you.
