The data update was necessary to include newer information about current electric rates, equipment prices and performance.
FORBES: A Web Tool For All You Need To Know About Small Wind Energy
Current electric motorcycle riders likely have one if not several gas-powered bikes already, but they appreciate the technology and eco-friendliness of an electric motorcycle, Hurst says.
But ZENN Chief Executive Ian Clifford admits that current electric cars are still a "niche product, " and that his company has sold just 350 of the current model.
When I talked to Agassi last Monday, he was his usual ebullient self, infusing the business case for Better Place with his mission of making electric cars as attractive to own as petroleum-powered models by eliminating the high cost and limited range of most current electric vehicles.
Using a dedicated high-current electric circuit, like those installed for electric ovens, these can recharge the MINI E in 4.5 hours. (With an ordinary mains socket, by contrast, recharging could take all day.) For cars with smaller battery packs, like the Smart, overnight recharging from a conventional socket is possible.
The current avoided electric costs will probably not get much lower.

These are represented physically by, for example, two different voltages of an electric current.
Power is supplied by an electric current generated in a pack outside the body.
ECONOMIST: A promising new artificial heart wins regulatory approval
One such area being addressed is how to distribute a stable electric current across a ship-based grid.
Then he switched on an electric current to heat up the foil instantly to 600 degrees Fahrenheit.
At their current cost, electric vehicles are not competitive without significant government subsidies.
FORBES: Chinese Company Offers To Acquire A Leading U.S. Battery Maker
This is similar to cytoscopy, except the probe is used to burn away cancer cells with an electric current.
Cellphones, for instance, rely on chips to detect battery levels and coordinate responses, such as shutting off the electric current when full.
Hydrolysis--running an electric current through water to produce hydrogen--yields fuel that is usually not economically competitive with other forms of energy.
This can be done by heating the gas (a thermal plasma) or passing an electric current through it (a non-thermal plasma).
Michael Faraday discovered in 1831 that an electric current flowing in a wire induces a secondary current in a neighbouring wire.
Many of the tiny metal pieces are cut with a new mechanical process that runs electric current through a hair-thin filament.
He was tracking the electric current from each of his breakers to his various lights, his air conditioner, those types of things.
These two are an industrial pair because they are manufactured in the same process, by passing an electric current through salt water.
It produces an electric current, which the chips use to send out an identifying signal, which the computer recognizes as being me.
Creating a magnetic field using electricity is easy: an electric current flowing in a wire generates a magnetic field around that wire.
ECONOMIST: Recreating the planet's magnetic field in a laboratory
It constantly watches the body's heart rhythm and delivers a brief electric current to the heart if necessary to adjust the pacing.
Similarly, moving a magnet creates an electric current in a neighbouring wire.
ECONOMIST: Recreating the planet's magnetic field in a laboratory
These run from anode to cathode and thus create an electric current.
FORBES: Better Than A Kite In A Thunderstorm: The New Science Of Generating Zap From Trash
Recent work has also demonstrated that at suitably low temperatures they can act as superconductors transmitting an electric current indefinitely, without power loss.
Once cooled, they would be reinvigorated back to their original ionic states by an external electric current, and pumped back into the chip.
Silver is known to kill bacteria, but the addition of an electric current makes the process even more effective, killing up to 98% of bacteria.
Stick the part in acid, run an electric current through it and we can increase the thickness of the layer by a factor of 20-40.
The electric current density possible with such windings is approximately 30 to 100 times greater than the values achievable with copper coils at room temperature.
FORBES: Siemens Announces Initiative to Improve Power Generator Efficiency With Superconductors
Researchers from Dartmouth have come up with a new way to provide health monitors just such an ability using a tiny electric current and a bioimpedance sensor.
