The Driven Podcast: Will electric cars replace household batteries?

Published by

Tim Washington from Jet Charge on why household batteries may replace electric vehicles, and why they may be more valuable as batteries on wheels, rather than wheels with batteries.

This is yet another presentation from our recent Electric Vehicle and Transition conference in Sydney in August. Please look out for more episodes of The Driven Podcast.
