You know Israel has always fascinated me from their bible stories to the formation of the state of Israel in the middle of the last century.Though Israel lacked the Oil wealth as her arab neighbours possessed, her ingeniuity and determination turn her to one of the most successful democratic country in the middle east running a high tech economy with patents that seems higher than other countries in spite of her small populace.
With all the turmoil surrounding the mid east region and with Israel always caught up in that kind of conflict against terrorism within and outside her borders , the energy that’s needed to power up her economics and military grown ever more important if she was to survive Hamas, Hezbollah and international pressures from UN restricting her retaliation against her foes.
Fear not as young jewish minds are always looking for solutions for their energy problems.IT whiz 39 year old israeli named Shai Agassi who was the ex chief designer of products at German SAP AG wanted to build electric cars for Israel and to the world!Making monthly subsriptions like our utiity bills instead of going to gas stations seems like an idea that’s going to be more feasible as oil and gas prices goes up.
The plan for Agassi company was to tie up with Nissan and Renault for this project by supplying them lthiumn-ion batteries to power up their cars.So the Israeli side provides the software while the japanese and french the hardware.It will be a match made in heaven if it take off a big way in Israel powered up by non fossil energy.
