EV vs ICE Cars: Why on earth are People Buying EV Cars?

EV Cars / January 17, 2024

Hello, I’m Kempy, CEO of Queensland Solar and Lighting. I’m exploring the growing trend of electric vehicles (EVs) versus internal combustion engine (ICE) cars. Despite my background in solar energy, I find the EV craze somewhat baffling. Let’s dive into this topic. The EV Hype: Insights from a Solar Salesman In my role, I often meet clients preparing for EVs. They’re convinced of their cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness. But does reality match their beliefs? The Truth Behind EV Savings A study by carexpert.com compared a petrol car with an EV on a Melbourne to Sydney trip. The findings were eye-opening. The petrol car proved to be cheaper and more time-efficient. The Drawbacks of EVs Higher Initial Cost: EVs typically have a higher upfront price. Charging Time: They need longer charging times, a downside for long journeys. Electricity Costs: Increasing electricity prices can negate the cost benefits of EVs. Safety Concerns:….

Tesla Powerwall 2 Review

Solar Battery Storage / December 17, 2023

Australia is exceptionally well suited for solar power: Its location is relatively near the equator (sun’s path) and blue skies. Australian scientists have been at the forefront of solar PV research leading to some of the most efficient solar photovoltaic modules being developed and tested in Australian universities. We will be reviewing the new Tesla Powerwall 2. The new Tesla Powerwall 3 is out soon, but doesn’t appear to be much of an upgrade – What do you think? In spite of these advantages, Australia is very slow in developing in terms of taking up solar energy; for example, relatively cloudy Germany has 10 Watts of solar photovoltaic power per capita while the corresponding figure for Australia is 2.6W (figures for about 2008). This has been due to plentiful and cheap coal and short-sighted government policies influenced by a very strong fossil fuel lobby. Where this article deals with specific….
