Embracing the Electric Car Market
On Friday Nick visited Romag in Consett, County Durham, to see a solar car parking canopy it has developed, which could be used to charge electric cars while they are parked, using the sun’s rays.
“I am really inspired by what I have seen this afternoon. I do feel the North- East could become a world leader in the electric vehicle market.
“We should embrace it. There are plans for recharging points right across the region. We could roll it out quickly and there is support and interest from the local authorities.”
