Megahurtz can't hold his two brain cells together because he's hung up on a collective....!
You got that part right as a few members make up that collective, vile people each and every one, there are more missing than there are remaining. What does that tell you about your ultimate fate here you little turd?

“We don’t have a view on that,” Trond Grande, the fund’s deputy chief executive officer, said in an interview on Tuesday.
He then added: “We want to be invested in companies that make money.”

Guess that they blew it on Tesla
Guess Canada blew it by letting them in on it in the first place. Oh wait, it never would have come about without them and they have what they want so it is time to shut it down. Thank you Canada for funding the whole program with a loan @ interest. The same group took down SNC, Canada's only company that could bid on contracts that are in the millions and billions. The diamond mine is being shit down as it was a test hole that netted the Bankers $17B for a $500M investment that is also a tax deduction for them.
They are also the ones responsible for the ill health all around Hudson Bay thanks to some very gutless Canadians who should all be charged with treason against the people of Canada.


Guess Canada blew it big time again and again and again, much to the delight of the citizens of the Netherlands.

A quote from Norway's Wealth Fund:


There are plenty of opinions on whether Tesla Inc. should (or even can) go private, but Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, the world’s biggest, isn’t chiming in.
“We don’t have a view on that,” Trond Grande, the fund’s deputy chief executive officer, said in an interview on Tuesday.
He then added: “We want to be invested in companies that make money.”

Guess that they blew it on Tesla
That's why they are a major investor and have already arranged to continue investment in Tesla if it goes private.

That's why Tesla is a major part of Norway's EV culture

You're problem is that you basically don't know anything.

Must be a lot of them to keep going .
A loop he created that he can't drop as it would show him to be a loser. CNDBear was in the same position with the reds, once he started he had to keep going and it made him even more nuts than the members here made him.


Even Dex has abandoned old pete.

I hate to agree with Hoid that the future "might" mean electric vehicles or other form of power for personal vehicles
Where I disagree with the greenies is the means of achieving the change...
Enough with the carbon tax, and the global warming bullshite...
Like I've said many times before......I'm all for clean environment and clean air to breathe

What I say is.... let the market decide....Innovation and competition will decide what sells and what doesn't
Competition and mass production will also bring down the prices
Manufacturers know that a product has to be affordable in order to sell it!


I don't think batteries are a good alternative. They aren't that green and charging is and always will be an issue.


But from what I have read a Hydrogen powered car could be a better alternative. It burns cleanly outputting only H2O. I think given H volatility, there may be some challenges but a much better alternative than a car with a big battery.

Now you even have to steal the format from pete the creep.. You are a prime example of why the loco collective is as fukking loco as they are. You can push that I am anti-Semitic and you show their IQ is well below 100 if you were even a member in good-standing, which you aren't.

The part that nobody is going to produce hydrogen in the quantity might put a damper on that plan. Do you have any idea how volatile that gas is?

Produce it on demand is the right way to do it. (and very cheap to do, that is why it is ano5ther buried technology that would be competition for big oil. It is almost like there is a pattern to it

That's rich.


Norway's sovereign wealth fund is prohibited from directing capital into private equity.


Your baseless commentary is hollow at best

How many and how many people use that means is the proper question. We do the expensive R&D on small motors (and then parked) and they 'upsize' for use by companies they own. You are kind of new to town aren't you?

Transdev, european leader in electric buses, reinforces its presence in the Netherlands

2018.28.03



March 28, 2018. Transdev is starting today the operation of the AML (Amstelland-Meerlanden) public transit contract in the Amsterdam region, which includes Europe’s biggest electrical ‘zero emissions’ bus fleet. This contract is one of the largest in the Netherlands, with sales estimated at 1.9 billion euros over 15 years(1).

The operating contract covers the cities of Aalsmeer, Amstelveen, Haarlemmermeer, Ouder-Amstel and Uithoorn, as well as a number of connections with Amsterdam, Haarlem and the city of Ronde Venen including the Amsterdam Schiphol airport, a key element of the Dutch economy. With this complete and innovative electric bus offering, Transdev deploys one of the world’s most modern and cleanest networks.
To date, Transdev operates 100 full-electric buses around the Amsterdam Schiphol airport, while the « zero emissions » bus fleet will continue to be further extended in the coming years. From 2021, close to 90% of the fleet will use electric buses. The network will be operated by our 800-strong staff and cover some 30 million kilometers annually.
In the Netherlands, our two clients in Eindhoven and Amsterdam, have made the choice of high passenger capacity articulated buses (18 meters long), with a lighter battery payload. These batteries are recharged using a dual-system, combining under half-hour quick-charging at the bus line terminal and a complete charge at night (4-5 hours) in the bus garage. Furthermore, electric buses in the Netherlands are charged exclusively using renewable energy sources, mainly from windmills. For Transdev, investment in both contracts represent 250 million euros in Amsterdam and 100 million euros in Eindhoven.

With a fleet of up to 400 electric buses by 2021 in the Netherlands, combined with all the complementary initiatives put into place in the countries in which we operate, Transdev is demonstrating that customer-centric technological innovation and energy transition are now a reality. Transdev Group is the only player in the field able to offer complete solutions on such a large scale. Transdev is the undisputed leader in ‘zero emissions’ public transport; it is with great pride that we again demonstrate that Transdev is a highly committed company, capable of rapidly deploying clean, reliable and innovative solutions. Thierry Mallet, CEO of Transdev Group



Transdev Nederland is a subsidiary on Transdev Group, leader in three areas : public transportation, Transport on Demand and medical transport. Transdev Nederland employs more than 10,000 people and reported consolidated sales of 805 million euros in 2016. Public transportation and Transport on Demand are operated under the local brand Connexxion or that of the Public Transport Authority, while medical transport is operated under the brand Witte Kruis (White Cross).
(1) 10-year contract + 5-year optional extension.

Electric car catches fire and explodes in Île-Bizard garage

Montreal firefighters are investigating after an electric car caught fire and exploded inside a residential garage in Île-Bizard on Friday.
The explosion launched the garage door clean off and sent it flying across the street.
Piero Cosentino saw dark clouds of smoke coming from his garage Friday afternoon.
"As soon as I saw that, I immediately turned off the breaker," he told CBC.
Cosentino's car, a Hyundai Kona, was on fire. He had just bought the vehicle in March.
Firefighters were called to the scene around 1 p.m. and were able to put out the blaze. No one was injured.
Still, Cosentino knows things could have been different.
"If we were in front of the garage door, we could have been in the hospital," he said.
Costentino says the car wasn't charging — he insists it wasn't even plugged in.
Electric cars are powered by lithium batteries and some can overheat in extreme temperatures.
Louise Desrosiers, with Montreal's fire service, said that there didn't seem to be any other factors inside the garage that could have caused the explosion.
