I think this article was the extent of that person's research.
Something that annoys me are people who can’t get their head around something different, and then try to argue their point whilst at the same time not separating the differences between an old and a new concept. We end up with someone who misconceiv…
I have been reading through quite a few of the forum threads and see sceptics pulling apart Shai’s Business Model and pointing to other media sources of it will not work etc.
The common thread is that they only can see the negative side of BP’s mod…
That is great. BP has scheduled to release in Israel, Hawaii and Denmark. However, I reckon that BP is gearing up in other countries as well.
It is a good sign indeed!
Article from earth2tech: Shai Agassi: First Battery Swap Station Lands In Japan, But Skeptics Remain
Interesting choice Japan, granted Nissan is a key partner, but I would think Israel would be the location for these tests as the more advanced proj…

In conclusion, even at current population levels we are in for some serious transition pain. It will all depend on how fast we can make the switch to sustainable living. I’m guessing it will not be easy nor will it be quick. I am howev…
I presume that one has to view the advantages that BP provides to its consumers. In the current EV cars market, recharging the batteries is the biggest hurdle, hence Shai is trying to get a solution for it.
He states that "similar to gas stations,…
1. It Won't Plug Into the Wall:
I agree with this. If you can’t just plug it in anywhere there is a plug (millions of them) then the customer might get very frustrated sitting there with a dead battery, a free plug, an extension cord and no way to m…
Firstly, the author of that rank piece of trash they call an 'editorial' comes off as an unwashed ignoramus (and with statements like "Everyone is moving to the city. Just like China. The country has more cities with 10 million people than I have bl…
I disagree with this entirely.
Over population is a world-wide non-issue. In most developed countries population has stagnated to the point where there are incentives for births not attempts to reduce them.
What we do have is far too many poverty…
1) what?
2) what?
3) comparing to what?
4) so we wait for something that will take less time to pay off?
5) the swap stations are always automatic and the battery is never yours. about the weight... normal forklifts can lift that much.
6) 1000…
When I say bad, it's really bad: Green Tech Media Bad article.
It's poorly researched with outright mistakes on the BP plan. It's a good sample of the hurdles that BP will face selling the concept to people that won't go to the trouble of understan…
Great news that Better Place is making progress on the battery exchange system.
As Shai mentioned in some speeches this is not rocket science but an ordinary robotics excercise possible today.
To make such a system bullet proof and fail-safe it will…
