This segment is going to be fascinating to watch in the 2020s.

I'm having a moment! In 2015, at the Shanghai @BloombergNEF Summit, I described how global oil demand might touch 100m barrels per day by 2025, then fall off. Check out BP's new demand scenarios. Note: oil and gas companies have written off nearly $90 billion in the past year.

Five years ago I did a presentation tour to most of the oil majors about the lithium-ion battery experience curve, and what it meant for the electrification of road transport. The reception then was mixed, but consensus is changing fast now. BP today: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

“Adding car lanes to deal with traffic congestion is like loosening your belt to cure obesity." — Lewis Mumford, 1955. If you can remember, & share, only one quote about urban transportation, make it this one. We’ve known it for 60+ years. #InducedDemand planetizen.com/node/53659

#Emobilité : la grande question à se poser est : « Est-ce qu’on voit venir ou est-ce qu’on prend les devants ? ». Si ça dépend de @jvmierlo de @MOBI_VUB, ce sera certainement la deuxième option. Dans cette interview, il nous explique tout : bit.ly/3imKCdV #VÉ #EVs

@AukeHoekstra @Fastned Well, you weren't that wrong. @shell @total @BP_plc and others are rapidly increasing their ultrafast charging networks.

Here's a link to a download of the book and the page where I wrote about fast charging. I think charted the course we are still on pretty nicely. Only wrong assumption I see is that existing players would implement this instead of new ones like @Fastned. zenmo.com/wp-content/upl…

When I wrote my first book about electric vehicles in 2008, fast charging was still non-existent. In 2012/2013, companies like @Tesla and @Fastned started rolling out the first 50 kW fast chargers. And now 300/350 kW chargers are being built. We are witnessing a revolution!
