The Smart Energy Initiative
Smart Energy has teamed up with various Electric car dealers to bring the "electric car " concept to Trinidad and Tobago.
Smart Energy hopes to spark interest from persons, who have always wanted to know more, and possess that desire to own and be that beacon of change as we progressively and actively move forward on acknowledging our environmental issues.
Through Smart Energy, interested parties can preview, test drive and learn all they need to learn about these vehicles right here in Trinidad and Tobago. We have various makes and models and through smart energy the possibility of owning and maintaining an electric car in Trinidad and Tobago is no longer a distant ideal.
"What exactly is an electric car? How does it work"
An electric car is an automobile that is propelled by one or more electric motors, using electrical energy stored in rechargeable batteries or another energy storage device. Electric motors give electric cars instant torque, creating strong and smooth acceleration. They are also around three times as efficient as cars with an internal combustion engine. Electric cars are significantly quieter than conventional internal combustion engine automobiles.
They do not emit tailpipe pollutants, giving a large reduction of local air pollution, and, can give a significant reduction in total greenhouse gas and other emissions (dependent on the method used for electricity generation). They also provide for independence from foreign oil, which in several countries is cause for concern about vulnerability to oil price volatility and supply disruption.
