In this episode, Martin Daum speaks with Prof. Dr. Ottmar Edenhofer, Edenhofer is the director and chief economist of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. He is also a professor for Economics of Climate Change at the Technische Universität Berlin and is considered one of the leading German climate economists. Together, they discuss the topic of carbon pricing as a measure to combat climate change. In the beginning of this year Germany introduced a national emissions trading system for the heating and transport sectors. As of January 1st, carbon emissions due to fossil fuels have a fixed price of € 25 per tonne of CO2- which will increase to 55€ per tonne by 2025. Companies using fuels such as petrol, natural gas or coal must acquire corresponding certificates for emission allowances. Martin Daum and Prof. Dr. Ottmar Edenhofer examine why carbon pricing is indispensable, which countries should urgently apply a similar system and how carbon neutral transport can be achieved.
In dieser Folge unterhält sich Martin Daum mit Prof. Dr. Ottmar Edenhofer. Er ist Direktor des Potsdam-Instituts für Klimafolgenforschung, Professor für Klima-Ökonomie an der Technischen Universität Berlin und gilt als einer der einflussreichsten Klimaökonomen in Deutschland. Zusammen sprechen sie über CO2-Bepreisung als Maßnahme gegen den Klimawandel. Am 01.01.2021 wurde in Deutschland eine CO2-Bepreisung auf Wärme und Verkehr eingeführt. CO2-Emissionen durch fossile Brennstoffe erhalten ab sofort einen Preis von 25 Euro pro Tonne. Unternehmen, die Erdölprodukte, Erdgas oder Kohle als Brennstoffe verwenden, müssen deshalb Emissionsrechte in Form von Zertifikaten kaufen. Schrittweise soll sich diese Abgabe für die klimaschädlichen Emissionen erhöhen. Im Jahr 2025 wären dann 55 Euro pro Tonne CO2 fällig. Martin Daum und Prof. Dr. Ottmar Edenhofer ergründen, warum CO2-Bepreisung absolut notwendig ist, welche Länder sich unbedingt einer solchen Regelung anschließen sollten und wie CO2-neutraler Transport gelingen kann.

It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. TESLA INCREASES PRICES AGAIN"We're a far cry away from the Tesla Model 3's admired "$35,000" price. As of Friday, Tesla has jacked up prices yet again on the Model 3 and its Model Y SUV cousin. Before any additional options or extra-cost paint colors, the Model 3 in its least expensive form now costs $41,190 after a $1,200 destination charge. The cheapest Model Y grows more expensive at $53,190 after the increases." says CNET: "Although this increase is just $500, Tesla has increased the prices on both of its affordable-ish EVs numerous times so far this year. The Model 3 is now at least $2,500 more expensive than it was in March. Maybe this is all part of some sort of long-game strategy as Tesla plans for a new global model meant for production in China. The vehicle could fulfill Musk's long-long-term promise of selling a $25,000 EV with a Big T badge on it." https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/tesla-prices-model-3-y/ TESLA IS BACKING A NEW EUROPE PROJECT TO BUILD A BIG CHARGING HUB"Tesla has joined a project to build one of Europe's most powerful charging hubs capable of powering 26 electric vehicles at once. Elon Musk's automotive giant is one of four companies working on the so-called "Energy Superhub" in the British town of Oxford, due to open at the end of this year. The new hub, announced Friday, will produce 10 megawatts of renewable energy from Dutch solar and wind firm Fastned." says Business Insider: "The company owns around 15.7% of the country's rapid charging network, according to figures from ZapMap . To date, Tesla has around 695 of its "Superchargers" dotted across the country. The Oxford hub will be made up of 14 fast chargers and a further 12 Tesla Superchargers. The project is being led by Pivot Power, a company that focuses on building superhubs across the UK. The company, which is part of the renewable arm of energy giant EDF, has plans for 40 sites across the UK. When it first opens, the hub will be able to initially charge 10 vehicles at once with rates of up to 300 kW." https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-joins-one-of-europes-biggest-electric-vehicle-charging-hubs-2021-5?r=US&IR=T FORD AND SK INNOVATION ANNOUNCE BATTERY MANUFACTURING JOINT VENTURE BLUEOVALSK"Ford Motor Company and Seoul, South Korea-based SK Innovation signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a joint venture to domestically manufacture batteries for electric vehicles, the two companies said Thursday. The new venture, dubbed BlueOvalSK, will produce around 60 GWh annually starting mid-decade. The MOU is the latest sign that Ford intends to vertically develop its battery capabilities." according to TechCrunch: "The 60 GWh production capacity would likely span two manufacturing sites but the companies are still determining those plans, including locations of the plants across North America, Drake added. Sixty GWh roughly translates to enough battery capacity to build 600,000 vehicles, Thai-Tang said. SK Innovation already has two separate EV battery plants under construction in Georgia under a collective investment of $2.6 billion. One of the plants is already producing batteries and the other is set to become operational in 2023. The company is also building a separate factory in Tennessee, with Volkswagen AG as its customer." https://techcrunch.com/2021/05/20/ford-and-sk-innovation-announce-battery-manufacturing-joint-venture-blueovalsk/ DAIMLER DISAGREES WITH TESLA AND VW’S BATTERIES-OR-BUST VIEW"Daimler AG’s truck chief expects hydrogen-powered big rigs to play an important role in slashing emissions from the transportation sector despite the technological hurdles and skepticism raised by two prominent rivals." says Bloomberg Green: "Focusing solely on battery-electric vehicles would be risky because of the scarcity of certain raw materials and challenges grids will have supporting wide-ranging charging networks for trucks and buses, Martin Daum, Daimler Truck’s chief executive officer, said in a phone interview. Fuel cells, which generate electricity from hydrogen and therefore eliminate the need to recharge batteries, have been touted for years as a potential alternative to combustion engines. But high costs and sparse fueling infrastructure have stood in the way of broader adoption and left the technology far behind battery-electric powertrains in the passenger-car market." @Herbert_Diess (via Google Translate): "The hydrogen car is proven NOT the air conditioning solution. Electrification has established itself in traffic. Sham debates are a waste of time. Please listen to the science" @elonmusk: "Diess is right. Hydrogen is a staggeringly dumb form of energy storage for cars. Barely worth considering it for a rocket upper stage, which is its most compelling use." https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-21/daimler-disagrees-with-tesla-and-vw-s-batteries-or-bust-view UPDATE: DID TESLA STOP TAKING ORDERS FOR MODEL S PLAID+?"Today, by the way of checking the prices of Tesla cars, we came across a strange thing. It seems that the Tesla Model S Plaid+ appears to be no longer selectable in Tesla's online design studio." says InsideEVs: "We've been informed that an mail from Tesla to its stores yesterday advised that Plaid+ is "no longer an option for ordering," due to "long lead times." Tesla stores expect to begin deliveries of the "non-plus" Model S Plaid next month after the initial delivery event. Once you hover the mouse over the top-of-the-line Plaid+ version (shown on a gray field), the cursor turns into a 'no entry' sign and it can't be selected. We know that the tri-motor Plaid version will be launched (after a delay) soon with the first customer deliveries on June 3. The dual-motor Long Range version will follow after that. The main difference for the Plaid+ version is probably the battery, which is expected to provide a range of more than 520 miles (837 km), compared to 390 miles (628 km) in Plaid and 412 miles (663 km) in Long Range versions." https://insideevs.com/news/508885/tesla-stops-orders-models-plaid/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=RSS-all-articles HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 DELIVERIES TO LAUNCH SOON"Hyundai will soon start deliveries of the Ioniq 5, which was presented in February, in Norway. Several hundred examples of the 800-volt electric vehicle have already been shipped there. Specifically, it is the special model ‘Project 45’." reports electrive: "According to the Norwegian Hyundai importer, the first transport ship with the electric model built in South Korea has docked in the port of Drammen. These are said to be “several hundred” Ioniq 5s, so deliveries of the special model will begin “in a short time”. A total of 14,000 interested parties have registered for the 800-volt BEV in Norway. It remains to be seen how many of these interested parties actually wanted to order a copy of the special model or put themselves on the waiting list for the freely configurable Ioniq 5. The ‘Project 45’ is only available with the large battery and all-wheel drive." electrive.com/2021/05/21/hyundai-ioniq-5-deliveries-to-launch-soon/ QUESTION OF THE WEEK WITH EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM What’s the best specialist vehicle you can think of which would make a great EV?

Daimler AG's plan to spin off its truck division has earned praise throughout the industry since its announcement last week. But perhaps no one is happier than the man in charge of the company's global truck operations. Martin Daum, head of the Germany-based Daimler Trucks, didn't hide his excitement in an interview with Transport Topics. He said, “I was pushing for this for years and finally it came. It's a dream come true.”
Martin Daum spricht in dieser Folge mit Jeremy Rifkin. Der US-Ökonom und Autor unterrichtete als Professor u. a. an der University of Pennsylvania und gilt als Visionär der Wasserstoffwirtschaft. In dieser Episode sprechen beide über Wasserstoff als Energieträger der Zukunft und seine Bedeutung für die Transportbranche. Wasserstoff ist das häufigste Element im Universum. Fast so grenzenlos wie das Weltall ist auch das Potenzial von Wasserstoff für die (Elektro)Mobilität. Als Energiespeicher spielt das Element für die Brennstoffzellentechnologie eine zentrale Rolle in der Antriebsstrategie von Daimler. Die Vorteile liegen hier klar auf der Hand: null Emissionen, hohe Reichweiten und kurze Betankungszeiten. Auch bei der Diskussion, wie die weltweiten Klimaziele erreicht werden können, lautet eine Antwort: Wasserstoff. Martin Daum und Jeremy Rifkin gehen in dieser Folge der Frage auf den Grund, welches Potenzial Wasserstoff besitzt, wie sich die Infrastruktur ändern muss und warum die Zeit für Wasserstoff gekommen ist. Viel Spaß beim Anhören der letzten Folge dieser Staffel!
Transportation Matters - The CEO Podcast of Daimler Trucks & Buses
In this episode, Martin Daum talks to Jeremy Rifkin. The US-economist, author and professor at the University of Pennsylvania is considered a visionary of the hydrogen economy. Daum and Rifkin exchange views about hydrogen as an energy source of the future and its significance for the transportation industry. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe - and its potential for the mobility sector is almost as vast as outer space itself. As an energy carrier for fuel cell technology for instance, it plays a central role in Daimler‘s drive strategy. The advantages are obvious: zero emissions, long range and short refueling times. Hydrogen can also be one answer to the issue of meeting climate change requirements. Martin Daum and Jeremy Rifkin explore why the time for hydrogen energy has come, and examine how infrastructure has to evolve to fully utilize hydrogen´s potential. Enjoy the final episode of this season.
This is our second episode of an Outrage + Optimism investigative series on The Future of Transport. There’s no denying that for over a century, fossil fuels have played a key role in humanity’s progress. But at a cost. They account for two-thirds of global greenhouse-gas emissions, and the pollution from burning them kills more than 4 million people a year. So in a year where cars sat unused, and oil prices crashed...what is the future of fuels? We know that in order to meet the Paris Agreement, we need to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030. Because even though COVID-19 is expected to reduce energy-related CO2 emissions by 7% this year, we need massive changes in how we move people and things. So will we see the end of the internal combustion engine? How will the world go electric? Can hydrogen scale to meet our energy demands? Our hosts Tom Rivett-Carnac, Christiana Figueres and Paul Dickinson pull out the roadmap to a zero-emission future, hit the road looking for answers to a decarbonized transport sector with experts who are in the driver's seat.

Die Deutsche Bahn steht vor großen Herausforderungen. Viele Menschen meiden Zugfahrten auf Grund einer möglichen Ansteckung mit dem Coronavirus. 00:06:54 Wie wirkt sich das auf die Preisgestaltung der Tickets aus? Und wie will der Staatskonzern in diesen Zeiten seine Expansionspläne realisieren? Mit unserem Bahnexperten Dieter Fockenbrock haben wir heute über die Zukunft der Deutschen Bahn und die Umsetzung ihrer Strategie gesprochen. Ein Thema, das wohl auch auf der heutigen Aufsichtsratssitzung der Deutschen Bahn wichtig war. Bei einem ist sich unser Redakteur sicher: Die Chance, das neue Amazon für Bahnreisende zu werden, hat der Staatskonzern wahrscheinlich schon verpasst. 00:06:54 Außerdem: Verkehrsminister Andreas Scheuer und Martin Daum, Vorstandsmitglied der Daimler AG, haben sich heute in einer Pressekonferenz zur künftigen Elektro-Technologiestrategie für Nutzfahrzeuge geäußert. Unser Automobilexperte Franz Hubik hat die wichtigsten Punkte für uns zusammengefasst. Geht es bei den LKW schneller voran, als bei den PKW? Wann sind die Nutzfahrzeuge von morgen einsatzbereit und welche Technik setzt sich am Ende durch: Batterie oder Brennstoffzelle? +++ Weitere Informationen zu unserem Newsletter Inside Geldanlage finden Sie hier: https://inside.handelsblatt.com/geldanlage/

In dieser Episode spricht Martin Daum mit Nigel Topping. Der Engländer wurde im Vorfeld der für 2021 in Glasgow, Schottland geplanten 26. UN-Klimakonferenz zum High Level Champion for Climate Action berufen. Fünf Jahre sind seit dem Übereinkommen von Paris vergangen. 2015 haben sich die Mitglieder der Vereinten Nationen auf Richtlinien zur Begrenzung der Erderwärmung verständigt. Dazu sollen Maßnahmen ergriffen werden, die den Anstieg der globalen Durchschnittstemperatur auf maximal 2 Grad über dem vorindustriellen Niveau beschränken sollen. Martin Daum und Nigel Topping sprechen in dieser Episode, wie Klimaschutz in der Praxis umgesetzt werden kann, und wie rasch innerhalb der kosten-sensitiven Transportbranche CO2-Neutralität erreicht werden kann. Und außerdem was ein High Level Champion eigentlich für Aufgaben hat. Viel Spaß dabei! (Diese Episode wurde vor den Einschränkungen des öffentlichen Lebens durch die COVID-19-Pandemie aufgenommen.)
Transportation Matters - The CEO Podcast of Daimler Trucks & Buses
In this episode Martin Daum welcomes Nigel Topping who acts as the High Level Champion for Climate Action for the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference scheduled for 2021 in Glasgow, Scotland. Five Years have passed since the Paris Accord. In 2015 the members of the United Nations agreed on regulations to limit global warming. The main goal was to keep the increase of the global average temperature well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels. So in this episode Martin Daum and Nigel Topping talk about how climate action can actually be taken and how fast CO2 neutrality can be implemented to a cost sensitive industry like transportation. And also what a High Level Champion for Climate Action actually does. Enjoy! (This episode was recorded before the implementation of social distancing and the restrictions to public life due to the coronavirus.)

Martin Daum is a die-hard basketball fan. As the CEO of a global company, he sees similarities in business and sports and often the same basic principles of leadership, team work and performance. In this episode he meets Terry Stotts – the NBA head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers. This year coach Stotts is currently in his eighth season with the Blazers based in the northwest of the United States. Previously he worked as a head coach and assistant coach for five different NBA teams – including the 2011 NBA champion Dallas Mavericks. Terry Stotts and Martin Daum discuss the parallels of coaching a NBA team and running a business. For example, why do you need both a strong bench and stars who can make the difference? Coach Stotts also provides some insights on what he tells his team in a timeout or during the halftime break… and what made Dirk Nowitzki a unique leader. Enjoy!
Martin Daum ist ein eingefleischter Basketballfan. Als CEO eines globalen Unternehmens sieht er Gemeinsamkeiten in Wirtschaft und Sport und oft die gleichen Grundprinzipien von Führung, Teamarbeit und Leistung. In dieser Episode trifft er Terry Stotts - den NBA Cheftrainer der Portland Trail Blazers. In diesem Jahr beginnt Coach Stotts seine achte Saison mit dem im Nordwesten der USA ansässigen Team. Zuvor arbeitete er als Assistenztrainer für verschiedene NBA-Teams - darunter für den NBA-Meister Dallas Mavericks 2011 mit Dirk Nowitzki. Terry Stotts und Martin Daum diskutieren die Parallelen zwischen dem Coaching eines NBA-Teams und der Führung eines Unternehmens. Warum braucht man zum Beispiel sowohl die Topspieler als auch die Ersatzspieler auf der Bank, die den Unterschied machen? Coach Stotts gibt auch einen Einblick in das, was er seinem Team in einer Auszeit oder während der Halbzeitpause erzählt … und was Dirk Nowitzki zu einem einzigartigen Leiter gemacht hat. Viel Spaß!
Transportation Matters - The CEO Podcast of Daimler Trucks & Buses
The latest episode of Transportation Matters is about the ‘Why?’. Why, as a company, are we doing business - beyond making money? What drives us, what gets us up in the morning to give it our best? In other words: What is our purpose? Martin Daum goes after these questions in his conversation with Brad White, a veteran specialized in helping businesses to define and use their purpose beyond the financials. Brad White likes to compare his work to that of an archeologist, who engages in digging deep down to the core of a company to find its heritage and reasons for existence, to reveal its underlying values and key principles. Having done this for dozens of companies across industries, borders and size, Brad talks to Martin about whether purpose is just another flavor of the day or if it is already embedded in every corporation. The two are also discussing why it is important to have a purpose and to live by it. And why, first and foremost, having a purpose is a basic human need. Enjoy!
Die aktuelle Folge von Transportation Matters befasst sich mit der Frage "Warum?". Warum machen wir als Unternehmen, über das reine Geldverdienen hinaus, das, was wir machen? Was bewegt uns und lässt uns morgens aufstehen, um unser Bestes zu geben? Mit anderen Worten: Was ist unser Daseinszweck? Martin Daum blickt in seinem Gespräch mit Brad White dabei über den Tellerrand. Brad White hilft mit seiner Erfahrung Unternehmen dabei, ihren Daseinszweck zu definieren und für sich zu nutzen - über die Geschäftszahlen hinaus. Brad White vergleicht seine Arbeit gerne mit dem Job eines Archäologen, der tief in das Innerste eines Unternehmens vordringt, um sein Erbe und seine Daseinsberechtigung zu finden und seine Unternehmenswerte und Kernprinzipien freizulegen. Brad White hat industrieübergreifend zahlreichen Firmen geholfen, ihre unternehmerische Bestimmung in Worte zu fassen. Martin Daum und Brad White unterhalten sich darüber, ob die Suche nach und Besinnung auf die jeweilige unternehmerische Bestimmung nur ein weiterer kurzlebiger Trend ist oder Unternehmen auf Dauer trägt. Die beiden Gesprächspartner diskutieren zudem die Frage, warum es wichtig ist, diese unternehmerische Bestimmung zu formulieren und sie zu leben. Und vor allem, warum es ein menschliches Bedürfnis ist, nach dem Zweck und Nutzen des eigenen Handelns zu fragen. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!
Transportation Matters - The CEO Podcast of Daimler Trucks & Buses
In our second episode the focus is on the sustainability in the transport sector, one of the major challenges of our time. Martin Daum hosts a pioneer of sustainable and environmental friendly politics: Joschka Fischer, former Vice Chancellor and Secretary of State of the Federal Republic of Germany and now principal of Joschka Fischer & Company consultants, which he founded ten years ago. Having left active politics a while ago Fischer remains an attentive analyst of the political business and keeps on campaigning for environmental protection and a sustainable climate policy. Fischer's credo is that CEOs from large companies like Daimler Trucks & Buses have a specific responsibility. Martin Daum fully agrees and talks with Fischer about how to balance ecological and economical objectives. Joschka Fischer; Germany's Green Party methusalem and Martin Daum discuss, how society, politics and economics have to cooperate for a sustainable climate policy, why climate change does not come for free and why there is a chicken-egg-dilemma when it comes to hydrogen powered vehicles. Enjoy!
In unserer zweiten Episode geht es um Nachhaltigkeit im Transportgewerbe, eine der ganz großen Herausforderungen der Gegenwart – und Martin Daum hat einen der Pioniere nachhaltiger, umweltorientierter Politik zu Gast: Joschka Fischer, ehemaliger Vizekanzler und Außenminister der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und heute Geschäftsführer der Strategieberatung Joschka Fischer & Company, die er vor zehn Jahren gegründet hat. Auch nach seinem Rückzug aus der aktiven Politik bleibt Fischer aufmerksamer Beobachter des politischen Geschehens und setzt sich für den Umweltschutz sowie eine nachhaltige Klimapolitik ein. CEOs von großen Unternehmen wie Daimler Trucks & Buses sieht er in einer besonderen Verantwortung. Martin Daum ist sich dessen bewusst und spricht mit Fischer darüber, wie sich ökologische und ökonomische Ziele miteinander in Einklang bringen lassen. Wie Gesellschaft, Politik und Wirtschaft für eine nachhaltige Klimapolitik zusammenarbeiten müssen, wieso es eine Klimawende nicht zum Nulltarif geben wird und warum es bei Wasserstoffantrieben ein Henne-Ei-Problem gibt, darüber diskutiert CEO Martin Daum mit Grünen Urgestein Joschka Fischer. Viel Spaß dabei!

It’s Friday 8th June 2018 and this is your EV News Daily. Good morning, good afternoon and good evening! Wherever you're listening around the world, a very warm welcome from London, UK. Here is today’s news about electric cars and the future of transport. My name is Martyn Lee and I go through every EV article online so you don’t have to. WORLD RALLYCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP ELECTRIC CAR SWITCH The plans I've talked about on previous podcasts, to switch World Rallycross Championship cars to being electric, has been approved by the governing body the FIA World Motor Sport Council. I first heard of plans for this last year, and then earlier this year invitations were sent out for companies who wish you tender for the supply of the battery and chassis. This is very significant news as it starts from 2020. World Rallycross is a fast-paced, high adrenaline sport for drivers and spectators alike, with the electric cars eligible for both manufacturer teams and privateers. Every constructor will have the same battery and chassis package, which will be open for privateer teams to homologate as well. We now know Williams will provide all the batteries, as they have done to Formula E up to now, with Formula E moving to McLaren for the 2018/19 season. IN fact some of those specs from Formula Ewill be used to derive the regulations which will govern the manufacturers and private teams on the powertrains they design. The stats: two motors, one on each axle, and total power of 500kW. https://www.autosport.com/wrx/news/136578/world-rx-2020-electric-car-move-approved KIA NIRO EV REVEALED TO PUBLIC KIA has revealed its all-new Niro EV at the 2018 Busan International Motor Show today in Korea. They are finally showing off to the public what you and I have talked about for a while since we saw the concept at CES plus official pics last month. As Hyundai have done with the Kona they've taken the combustion car and added some batteries. The charge point is in the front grille behind a flappy slidey cover, and the small LED headlights are something we're seeing more from EV designers. Of course no need for air intakes to keep an engine cool makes the front look way better. As we've mentioned the Kona, in the same way the Niro offers a 64kWh lithium-polymer battery for 279 miles of range. However even though they're sister companies, it's not the same battery as it would be fair to assume. In fact more than one EV blog I've read today said they're fitting the same packs - oopsie! Different suppliers and different chemistry. That's not EPA rated yet though so expect something around 240 miles, still better than base spec Model 3. The motor drives the front wheels with 150kW of power and a brisk, without being face-melting, 0-60mph time of 7.8 seconds. That's the same for both battery options. And charging speeds? Yes they're confirmed for 100kW. The smaller pack is 39.2kWh for 186 miles of range. And if you're like me, I always find myself thinking I need the long range, but when you look at the journeys we make, 186 miles is just fine in nearly all cases. Even if that range came down to real world 100 miles you know the price of a Kia will be super competitive. Inside we have some blue accents for snazziness, look out for a 7inch touchscreen with plenty of buttons, this is no Tesla minimalism. There's an included wireless phone charger, plus plenty of safety tech like Forward Collision Warning with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Intelligent Stop & Go, and Lane Following Assist. As for their version of Autopilot, it's Level 2, so you'll stay in lane on the freeway with accelerating, decelerating, braking and steering up to 80mph. Korean sales start soon with prices elsewhere announced later this year - that's as specific as they'll be. With 5,000 domestic orders in Korea I would expect them to either service all of them first, or a at split it 50:50 for Korea vs Rest Of The World. GM TO SELL HONDA ADVANCED ELECTRIC CAR BATTERIES IN NORTH AMERICA Reuters just reported: "General Motors Co will supply advanced batteries to Japan’s Honda Motor Co, the companies said Thursday, a move that could significantly reduce the cost of future electric vehicles at both automakers after 2020. GM and Honda on Thursday said they would “collaborate” on the batteries, with GM supplying cells and modules, mainly for electric vehicles to be sold by both companies in North America. A source familiar with GM’s plans said its current battery cell supplier, Korea’s LG Chem, is expected to provide cells for the new battery, which is mainly a GM design. The new batteries are expected to begin production around 2021, the source said." This looks like the classic win-win. The next gen batteries will be higher energy density than those used in the Bolt and for instance. DRIVER IN FATAL TESLA AUTOPILOT CRASH DID NOT HAVE HANDS ON WHEEL This is such a horrible story to report on but I want to quickly update you. "The driver of a Tesla who fatally crashed in California in March did not have his hands on the steering wheel at the time of the accident, said a preliminary report from the National Traffic Safety Board on Thursday." according to CNBC. NEW NISSAN eNV200 CAMPERVAN Nissan's hidden gem is the eNV200, electric van and people carrier which has recently been updated with the 40kWh battery, and thermal management to handle those who use it as a van and rapid charge regularly for business. "Nissan has taken the covers off a new in-house campervan range at the 2018 Madrid Motor Show. The campers, which are currently exclusively for the Spanish market, with an all-electric e-NV200 version included in the line-up." say AutoExpress: "All the campervans offer an extendable roof, which the maker claims allows four people to sit and stand in comfort. They all also come with a double bed, however, the NV300 is the only van to offer sleeping for four, thanks to a second double bed which is made available once the roof is raised. Inside this larger NV300-based model, there’s a fridge, sink, hob and heater to make sure occupants don’t freeze during their fine dining experience." The campervan eNV200 will be popular for those wanting to cut their emissions whilst enjoying the classic campervan roadtrip experience. DAIMLER TRUCKS NORTH AMERICA UNVEILS TWO ELECTRIC MODELS Daimler press office have been in touch with news that: "Freightliner Trucks premiered two fully electrified commercial vehicles, a Freightliner eCascadia™ heavy-duty truck and a Freightliner eM2 106 medium-duty truck today, during the Daimler Trucks Capital Market and Technology Day here. Freightliner plans to deliver an Electric Innovation Fleet of 30 vehicles to customers later this year for further testing under real-world operating conditions." "The eCascadia has up to 730 peak horsepower. The batteries provide 550 Kwh usable capacity, a range of up to 250 miles and have the ability to charge up to 80 percent (providing a range of 200 miles) in about 90 minutes. The Class 8 tractor is designed for local and regional distribution and drayage. The eM2 has up to 480 peak horsepower. The batteries provide 325 Kwh of usable capacity, a range of up to 230 miles and have the ability to charge up to 80 percent (providing a range of 184 miles) in about 60 minutes. The eM2 is Freightliner's electrified solution for local distribution, pickup and delivery, food and beverage delivery, and last-mile logistics applications." What did Daimler Trucks chief Martin Daum say? “We are the undisputed global leader of the trucking industry and we intend to remain in that position with electric trucks and buses." Just a reminder on the Tesla Semi range - 500 miles. Which Elon said yesterday was already being improved on for the truck which goes on sale in 2020. PORSCHE MISSION E CROSS TURISMO As well as the Porsche Mission E, the recently unveiled Cross Turismo version is a more rugged version of the same car. Designed to fit your skis in, in you will. And some of the early test mules have been given to journalists in North America. BMWBlog praised the steering and handling, but also said: "It’s also really, really fast. They weren’t allowed to drive it past 50 mph but Porsche claims it has 600 hp from its dual electric motors and is capable of 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds and 0-124 mph in 12 seconds. The latter performance figure is actually faster than the Tesla Model S P100D. The biggest trick up the Mission E’s sleeves, though, is the fact that it can charge faster than any other electric car before it. With the capability of 800-volt charging, the Porsche Mission E can 250 miles of range in 15 minutes." More of those chargers will be appearing very soon especially in Europe where several networks are at advanced stage of installing them. EV CHARGING MAP ALLOWS ROUND AUSTRALIA EV TRIPS "It’s now possible to drive around Australia in an electric car, thanks to a comprehensive EV charging station map. The Tesla Owners Club of Australia (TOCA) released its Round Australia Electric Highway map this month." according to EnergyMatters.com.au "However, the map is not complete. There are still gaps in fast-charging stations and places where three phase is not available. As a result, TOCA and the Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA) are offering help to property owners. TOCA and AEVA will give a 32 amp 3 phase electrical outlet free to any site which will help build the Round Australia and Red Centre routes to distance intervals of 300 km max. The property owner must install it reasonably promptly at an accessible location, and agree to let electric vehicles charge there." I’d love to spread the word about electric cars so, if you can, share this somebody who might be interested.

Thursday 22nd February 2018. On the podcast today… you’ll hear about Mercedes Trucks doubting Tesla claims, and what about a drone coming to your rescue if you run out of energy… UK HIGH COURT RULES ON ILLEGAL POLLUTION, ELECTRIC CARS THE ANSWER? We’ll start with breaking news about air quality and what that means for EV adoption, not just here in the UK. In some ways this is similar to how California, because it’s such a huge car market, when they imposed strict emission limits the car makers made changes which benefited everything. Yesterday in London the high court told the UK government it must do more to tackle illegal levels of nitrogen dioxide pollution. For the last 8 years the UK has been in breach of the legal limits on pollution, and twice now have lost a court battle. Those we should thank are environmental lawyers Client Earth. Following previous defeats in court, the UK government had to promise to ban new petrol and diesel cars from 2040. Well specifically, all new cars from 2040 had to have a degree of electrification, it’s not a BAN on selling fossil fuels. That means hybrids would be acceptable. Mr Justice Garnham, the judge, said the current plan by UK Gov was “seriously flawed”. So what does that mean and what are the implications of this ruling? The government will have to go further and faster in their plans to adopt EVs. So that could mean bringing the date of the ban forward, say, to 2030. Or it could keep the 2040 ban and push it further, saying all new cars had to be full electric. That’s doubtful. However there are strict limits which must be reached by 2021 so it’s more likely the 45 local authorities will have to introduce emissions free zones, or Ultra Low Emission Zones, following the lead of London. That will lead to more negative publicity for diesel, further hurting sales, and inevitably increasing the adoption of electric cars. On the whole this is good news, but policy needs to be clearer and more concrete. Diesel sales will continue to fall off the cliff edge they’re on, however buyers aren’t moving to EVs quick enough, meaning an older fleet of dirty diesels is staying on the roads. With clear policy, companies can make the investments they need to in electrified transport. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/feb/21/high-court-rules-uk-air-pollution-plans-unlawful DAIMLER AG DOUBT TESLA CLAIM ON TESLA SEMI TRUCK TECH Next, the World’s biggest truck maker, Mercedes, has cast doubt on Tesla’s plans for their semi truck. Daimler plans to release their electric truck in 2021 called the e-Actros, following initial trials later this year. They will have a maximum range of 200kms, or around 120-130 miles, and will be investing over 500 million euros per year, starting this year. However the claims of Tesla seems to have ruffled feathers. According to Bloomberg.com, the head of trucks Martin Daum, is reported to have made comments yesterday to reporters including: “If Tesla really delivers on this promise, we’ll obviously buy two trucks -- one to take apart and one to test because if that happens, something has passed us by,” Daum said. “But for now, the same laws of physics apply in Germany and in California". If Tesla do manage to release a semi truck in 2019 with all the promised specs, there will be many difficult conversation at large truck makers all around the world, because they will have made an expensive miscalculation. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-02-21/daimler-throws-shade-at-tesla-e-trucks-plan-as-rivalry-heats-up APPLE BUY COBALT DIRECT AS EV BATTERY DEMAND GROWS Apple, the world’s largest company, is being affected by the EV rush according to a report by Inverse.com. They are looking at buying cobalt direct from the source to ensure their devices aren’t affected and the lithium-ion batteries in them. EVs use around 1,000 times as much cobalt as a mobile phone battery, and with 320 million EVs predicted to be on the road by 2040, Apple are looking ahead to secure supplies. https://www.inverse.com/article/41495-apple-tesla-electric-cars-batteries SSANGYYONG BRING NEW ELECTRIC SUV TO GENEVA 14 days until the Geneva motor show and Ssangyyong are yet another auto maker showing off their electric products.The e-SIV will be shows off, it’s a zero emission crossover SUV. e-SIV stands for Electronic Smart Interface Vehicle and they’re focusing on tech, and autonomous driving. They are looking at a 188bhp which is rated at 150kmph. They haven’t revealed battery size but they’re hinting at 50mins to charge to 80% and 450km range. So what do you think? 60kWh battery and 100kW or 120kW on board charger, to achieve that rate and range? https://auto.ndtv.com/news/2018-geneva-motor-show-ssangyong-teases-e-siv-electric-concept-1815211 CHARGEPOINT TO ENTER UK MARKET WITH NEW CAR CHARGER BUNDLE Chargepoint is looking to install more home chargers in the UK thanks to closer partnerships with car makers who already support their main rival Chargemaster. In the U.S. Chargepoint have a 70% market share so could bring big competition to the UK market. Should they do deals with manufacturers, they could bundle them with new car purchases to make it as easy as possible to buy an EV. Or as they say – frictionless! Bear in mind than Daimler and BMW are investors in Chargepoint, but both have relationships with Chargemaster. Thus far in the UK Chargepoint is probably best known for a deal with Instavolt which install 50kW DC fast chargers, with around 600 agreed to be installed. To put that in perspective, Chargemaster has 6000 charge points with 2000 more planned for the POLAR network.

Some solutions have been suggested such as Hyundai turning up with an IONIQ and using it as a donor vehicle. But now, a giant drone has been suggested. The ‘Volt’ will be summoned via app, fly to your location, and deliver enough power to get you going. http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/forget-charging-booths-the-volt-drone-automatically-flies-to-your-electric-car-to-charge-it Thank you for listening today, I hope you've enjoyed it.
