The Tesla Motors link? I did - quite a cool little set of wheels. It's good to see companies exploring the limits of alternate fuel vehicles. I also liked the fact that there was some pretty reasonable looking comparison of energy production, with some analysis of how the power generation plant emissions compare to a conventional car's engine emissions. I had a professor in college who used to say "it's all in how you draw the control volume" while pointing out that even electric cars aren't truly zero-emission - they're just producing their (quite a bit lower level of) emissions somewhere else.

What's kind of funny is I'm working on two projects at the moment (one a mixed use retail/apartments development and the other a LEED-certified bank branch) on which electric cars have been brought up. The mixed use facility is going to have a few parking spaces on each garage deck with outlets specifically provided for charging electric cars, and the bank branch may get one space reserved for low emissions vehicles (it's worth one LEED point). I don't know of any electric cars in town that will be using the outlets any time soon, but we have a growing number of hybrids rattling around town that might be able to use the special parking place at the bank, assuming that it actually gets put in.
