A valuable experiment!

A valuable experiment!

One of the most important concessionaires in the United States (Duke Energy) will carry out a very interesting pilot project.

Through a discount on the installment of the financing of selected electric vehicles, this concessionaire will have the right to use the associated batteries at the peak times.

A real win win. The concessionaire avoids investing in the expansion of its electric grid to only meet the peak and the owners of the vehicles will receive a robust compensation for enabling the use of batteries.

We urgently need to do our experiments here in Brazil. Simply so we don't get left behind!
