Or from ArsTechnica the mythical interstate emergency trumpet repair guy...

These have always been copium madness.

Despite what's presented, not a single target is regarded as unachievable. Economic conditions are expected to improve, and jobs will materialise.
Pure Hopium 🤪

It turns out (gasp) this is a bullshit opinion based on ignorance

www.caranddriver.com/news/a388074...

But it was their only policy for electric! Surely they wouldn't lie about that?

He's deployed being unaware of it

MINISTRY OF TRANSPORT TE MANATO WAKA OC250218 26 March 2025 Tenă koe Andy, I refer to your email dated 13 February 2025, requesting the following under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act): "I was wondering about the pre-election promise of 10,000 EV chargers and where we're at? Could you please let me know how this is progressing as you're always keen to point out that you only deliver what you campaigned on. I would like to know how many of these have been completed and the projections for 2025 and 2026" I am aware that as at 31 December 2024, there were 1,378 public EV charge points in New Zealand, with another 714 in the pipeline for installation. No yearly targets for installation have been set for the years between now and 2030. This is because decisions on the number of installations that occur in each year will be led by the private sector. To achieve the 10,000 charge point target, Cabinet agreed the Supercharging EV Infrastructure work programme on 15 April 2024 [CAB-24-MIN-0123 refers]. The work programme includes updating the co-investment model and actions to reduce the regulatory barriers inhibiting a rapid rollout of charging infrastructure. Năku noa, nă Nick Paterson Manager Environment

It was always a lie, they had no intention of ever following through on the bullshit promise (which is still on their website www.national.org.nz/news/nationa...)

Seems like sunlight is finding its way past that Hormuz straight thing

To be fair we have a lot of off street parking and ability to L2 charge at home

But yeah we need more public charging

Govt looks to market to reach 10,000 EV charger goal Transport officials warn without more government money the country won’t reach its 2030 goal for EV chargers

Guess what? The Govs promise of 10,00 EV chargers was a LIE!?

I KID YOU NOT!

It seems they failed to allocate any money at all..

Can USA just lock up their pedo president and all his pedo mates and enablers and we can move on from this clusterfuck?

Fast and efficient! Treats now!

In other news USA spent $11.3 billion on the first week of achieving this!

You can see how his right hand slamming down caused a moderate tremor in the ground affecting foot placement, 100% intended

Its such an impressive complete package for a car from 2017

V8 guy was VERY quiet after a quick trip round Addington raceway ( model 3 performance)

I used to do greenExpo EV rides

The questions I got about EVs.. before the ride

Can it go up hills
Can it get to Diamond harbor (25km away)
Takes a week to charge right?
Its not a V8 tho!

Oh nice!

Did you do it whilst also towing your house though?

Didnt think so!

Chademo V2G stuff is spendy and bulky though and apart from a rare trial or 2 isnt a thing in nz

Coalition currently busy cancelling all the detestable bills it had under way because of polls its leader doesnt care about

Remember NZ, they still want to do all this but they also want to get re-elected so they will do this after that if they succeed

uber oil

Techbro's - what about UberOil?

No Planes, no Trains, no Boats

#NewZealand

This is #NewZealand's current energy plan

The environmental impact of fossil fuel use is terrible, the environmental impact of fossil fuel wars is equally horrific

Renewables don't burn, don't need transporting around the world in ships powered by fossil fuels and allow the planet to live

If this war doesn't provoke change, we're doomed

They are not free but they will cover their own cost in electricity in 6-8 years, and last 20-30 years

So they will pay for themselves 2/3x , who cares what they are worth in 30 years time

Depreciation on what exactly

While the oil supply & price is doing it's thing, I just filled up my $1000 EV for $0. ☀️⚡🔋
