Alternative Energy Infrastructure
Our next item takes a look at Better Place, a company founded by entrepreneur Shai Agassi. Better Place isn’t just about making all-electric vehicles. It’s about creating the infrastructure necessary to support those vehicles, including building charging stations, battery swap stations, and the software necessary to make this all as easy as possible for the user/driver. We’ll have a check-in with Agassi, to find out more about his bold plan, which is not without its critics.
