Summary

We are trying this out, the NEWS as a podcast. Let us know if this is useful to you @fullychargedshow 

Robert's back with his reactions to a selection of recent news stories, a brief update on our Electric Drive-In (https://fullycharged.show/events/full...) as well as some breaking news of the UK's plans for wind farms to power every home by 2030. Also covered in this episode is Norway's electric car sales domination, the discontinuation of the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, which was pivotal in the early days of Fully Charged, and news of a beefed-up Nissan LEAF designed to support emergency situations in disaster areas!

Don't worry though, as well as positive news stories about new electric estate cars and electric coaches there is a dedicated section for Robert to rant about a new proposed coal mine in Cumbria!
