| Subaru electric car engine: a first generation design shows what can be done quickly by car engineers. As consumers start using more electric cars, designs and technology will improve quickly. |
Mayor Edward Hagedorn, the active environmental mayor of Puerto Princesa City in Palawan, wants to develop a completely green city. His idea is to use all the available technology and green trends to build a better city. Mayor Hagedorn understands how difficult it is to really make a difference. In the transportation area, Hagedorn is pushing for electric vehicles. He may be early in his idea to have the first city with complete electric transportation system. But maybe he can succeed with help. There are a few companies and governments testing comprehensive electric car services. The Israeli company Better Place, has taken on the mission of developing and running a car battery replacement service. A few car companies, such as Renault and Nissan, are offering electric and hybrid cars which do not use fossil fuel to drive the wheels. This is a first generation effort, so we can expect more soon.
