October 7, 2010

UP TO 150 Victorian households stand to get a free electric car for three months as part of a $5 million, five-year trial.

The state government yesterday announced details of the trial, which will swap a pool of about 60 electric vehicles – including cars, trade vans and motorcycles – between households and another 50 state-based organisations.

The battery-powered vehicles will be assessed in real-life conditions to give car makers and electricity suppliers an idea of the demands that future owners will place on the state’s power grid.

Want to hear more about what it’s like to own and use an electric car? Then you better get along to hear Richard Keech speak at 12:30pm in the discussion area!
