I invested in bonds of the Dutch fast-charging company Fastned and just signed up to their stock market launch. This summer, I am planning to do a long road trip from Holland via France to Spain and back, taking my time to enjoy nice hotels and fantastic food along the way while charging the car at highway-side chargers and hotel destination chargers to end up in the South of Spain.
I also signed up to an electric scooter sharing company called Felyx in The Hague. I can find scooters nearby and use them to go wherever, paying 30 cents per minute and leaving them at destination.
If triggered, I am happy to elaborate on the issues that batteries have in terms of natural resources, recycling and the electricity mix that we use to charge our batteries as well as concerns of the electricity grid capacity and the future of managing demand versus supply as we go towards more sustainable sources.
