On the 15th March 2016, members, non-members and students attended a lecture about electric cars which was delivered by one of our volunteers, Ian Cook. The lecture explained battery technology, vehicle performance, charging intervals, environmental impact and costs. Comparisons were made with conventional petrol and diesel cars. The lecture was followed by a question and answer session with many far reaching questions being asked by the audience. The morning was rounded off with demonstrations of electric vehicles, Tesla and Nissan Leaf. Thanks to all who attended and also many thanks to staff at Bangor University who arranged the lecture room, refreshments and who advertised our event.
