Shai Agassi is the founder of Project Better Place, the battery recharging initiative out of which we powered our Manhattan Concept and some of our Hawaii Concepts. As of this week, they have signed a deal with Hawaii to put in a network of charging stations. Perhaps we will soon see the iBite on the roads of Oahu?
In the meantime, we will keep designing and building.
I very much agreed with most of what Shai had to say, however, I am still mystified as to why he or Better Place will not share their system standards so that all of us can make cars that work on his network.
Nonetheless, they continue work apace with Renault/Nissan to develope and to produce a large inventory of cars.
Not to fear. We will soon emerge as a leading contender for their production battery and system.
