Most R&D in this field is done in or around the automotive hubs. I.e. Detroit, Munich, Ingolstadt, Stuttgard, Wolfsburg, Tokyo, Tel Aviv etc. Silly Valley companies are getting almost all of the attention, but most of them are not doing

I really like the way it's commonly done in German industry. You will typically see a union negotiated compensation table with a very wide range of set pay grades. The entire table (i.e. ever employee) gets a raise every year to stay c

A simple timer isn't enough. You would want the chargers to be networked, so that the power company can optimize the load. That's not impossible, but it also doesn't exist, yet.

"Can" and "does" are not the same, though.

Currently all BEVs charge at their maximum rate the moment they are connected to the charger. Which almost always happens in late afternoon or early evening. I.e. the exact time when the energy usage is at a peak already. While there are ma

That's part of the issue, but Google also automatically extends your search terms with words that it believes are relevant to your search. I will also give certain words a higher relevance based on what ti believes you are really searc

And this kind of evaluation of one life against another is completely illegal in Germany. I.e. the german automotive industry legally can not make such systems in their automated cars and no cars operating in Germany can ave these systems e

Energy efficiency is a red herring. Theey are using surplus hydrogen for this project, i.e. they are getting useful work out of a waste product.

Google has promissed "release dates" as early as 2017 in the past. They have managed to keep exactly zero of those. Not only have they pushed back their deadlines again and again, but the scope of their promisses has also been red

What you are missing is that having hundreds of Model X based mini-busses going through this tunnel is less efficient (both in costs and energy) than having one subway train carry the same number of people. Now, if you want to be charitable

In my experience it's a combination of b) and c): most of the added value is generated by a surprisingly small number of "heroes" and everyone else is just there to support them. While the random office drone's contribut
