As an American and a full time investor I think it will be EV cars powered by consumer side solar energy and corporate / federal nuclear. I know nuclear is currently (I live close to Indian Point) unpopular but the 4th generation fission models are extremely safe and EVentually fusion would replace them. It would end oil dependence, cut way down on emissions and provide vehicles that require little or no service. I love driving and gas but future is autonomous EV. I saw an extremely compelling presentation by a hedge fund manager on Tesla. Used to be a bear skeptic but no more. It’s just a matter of time before Tesla EViscerates the rest of the gas / petrol market.

Unless the rest of Europe has a similar program, driving electric vehicles outside of Germany will still be problematic. Germany led the rest of Europe in the change over to lead free gas. If other countries expected German tourists they had to follow Ger...

Japan has a vast coast line and earthquakes with tsunamis which caused a nuclear catastrophe in 2011. Germany has none of that, but has among the highest prices for electricity worldwide. Guess how will shut down all nuclear plants?

Germany is next to my door. I know people there, and i lived 1 week in Germany. You know, Germany is a car country. Germans are in love with their petrol and diesel cars. Electric cars is a sensitive subject for them i think. Would they give up their Audi...
This isn't a huge problem

Germany went from local rutted rural roads and few paved road networks to a nation-spanning and highly organized autobahn in a few years. Now they need to a few parking spots to install high-voltage chargers? I think they'll survive. The charging technolo...

I consider myself a serious octane blooded German, having worked in automotive for many years. Please let me offer my opinion. Germans most often are not the first to adopt, but once critical mass is reached, things are hard to stop. Just think of the tay...
