ELECTRIC CABS WITH WIRELESS CHARGING I have a lot of fcebook connections with my home-town in Norway, a well as family and friends in other parts of the country. I have my keyboard set so I can switch between English and Norwegian with one click..........I also watch the Norwegian news networks........I have seen quite a bit of controversy over Clean Energy Generation.......There is a lot of falling water.....my home-town runs on electricity generated from a swift river that empties into the fjord ......including an Aluminum plant, which takes a large amount of both water and power. Most people areOK with that, because their power is cheap and the fish are safe.The windmills, however, are more controversial. They are also experimenting with rafts that have turbines that generate electricity. We are experimenting with that as well, here, where there is a lot of tidal turbulence. Our tides go up and down about 15 feet and the many islands cause the water to be forced through narrow channels , the the tidal action increases as you go North and up near Alaska. it fluctuates 25 feet............but having large turbine rafts all over the coast has it's own drawbacks The following is from Energy Canada...."🚘⚡️Norway is charging ahead with electric cars. Oslo will become the first city in the world to install wireless charging systems for electric taxis. By 2023, all taxis in the city will be zero-emission and by 2025, all new cars sold in Norway will be zero-emission. Norway has the world’s highest rate of electric car ownership. Last year, almost one in three new cars sold was electric. Not only do electric cars cut emissions, they also significantly cut fuel and maintenance costs.". |

I have thought about buying a 3 wheel bicycle. In this small town I could go everywhere on a side street and get exercise while saving on gas. The novelty of it is intriguing.
