An electric coach that drove from London to the G7 site to promote the vital importance of green energy has got stranded in Cornwall because it could not find anywhere to recharge its batteries.
According to Cornwall Live:
Planet Mark, the organisers of the Zero Carbon Tour, successfully travelled from London to the Eden Project, a distance of 263 miles with one recharge, in the electrically-powered Yutong coach.
However, in order to make the return leg through the South West of England the coach needs a recharge.
But with 60 to 70 miles it has found that there are no serviceable chargers left on the network and the five that they attempted to use in Cornwall were unable to charge the bus.
According to Planet Mark, this is a sign that more ‘investment’ (ie taxpayer money) needs to be splurged on electrical charge points.
But perhaps the real lesson of the story is that the green transition to ‘Build Back Better’ promoted at the G7 summit is hopelessly optimistic and will cause chaos and delays everywhere it is tried.
