...for faster, better, more efficient charging times.

We were on vacation (holiday) and drove by a grocery store. Along the edge of the parking lot were a dozen Tesla chargers, nicely spaced, looking futuristic and stylish.

We also noticed that 7 of the chargers had Teslas in front of them, charging and 5 of them had their owners sitting inside of the cars while it charged!

We shopped at a nearby store for almost 45 minutes then headed back, past that same parking lot. There were still 5 cars there with their owners sitting in them waiting for a charging cycle to complete.

How very inconvenient for a motorist to have to wait!! No wonder there seems to be such a large number of non-adopters of EVs. The waiting might be great when shopping for groceries or in a department store, but having to sit in one's car while it charges, has to be a very painful and depressing ordeal.

In smaller countries, the range might prevent such episodes from happening but in larger states where travel might take a few hours to get to one's destination, I can see where the frustration would happen.

Hopefully, in the near future, they will come out with a faster method of charging or a more robust cell to cycle the charge or perhaps a new, completely different power source...

Merely an observation...Cheers!

Therefore perhaps an owner of an Electric Motor Vehicle should be called a Motorist! Hmm...Curiouser and curiouser...

Rolls-Royce Small Modular Reactors getting closer to reality.

It's a controversial topic for sure but nuclear power is already generating much of the worlds power and the technology is getting safer, I'm a bit on the fence but it seems clear to me that we must do everything we can to get away from fossil fuels.

QuoteThe government wants to build 16 Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) in the next 25 years to secure the UK's energy supply.

Six sites shortlisted for nuclear reactor factory
