One of the enduring myths that is used by apologists for incumbent broadband operators as to the high cost of broadband in Canada and the US is our low population density.
This blog is about using ICTs to develop climate change preparedness solutions built around Energy Internet and autonomous eVehicles
Energy Internet and eVehicles Overview
Governments around the world are wrestling with the challenge of how to prepare society for inevitable climate change. To date most people have been focused on how to reduce Green House Gas emissions, but now there is growing recognition that regardless of what we do to mitigate against climate change the planet is going to be significantly warmer in the coming years with all the attendant problems of more frequent droughts, flooding, sever storms, etc. As such we need to invest in solutions that provide a more robust and resilient infrastructure to withstand this environmental onslaught especially for our electrical and telecommunications systems and at the same time reduce our carbon footprint.

Netherlands to deploy worlds first mobile charging system - energy Internet
[Here is a cool project in the in the province of Branbant in The Netherlands that embodies many of the ideas I have been talking about in terms of using eVehicles as a competitive alternative to the electrical grid.
Recharge Your Electric Car Through Its Tires for Mobile Charging
Given the shortcomings of vehicle batteries–their high cost, the time it takes to recharge them, and the fact that they store less energy as they age (they’re expected to lose about 20 percent over 8 years)–many researchers are looking for alternative ways to power electric cars.
Taking on established battery makers and making electric vehicles mainstream will require far more radical advances
Good article from MIT press. Taking on established battery makers and making electric vehicles mainstream will require far more radical advances. http://techre.vu/X8f4bt

Autonomous Vehicles as mobile energy storage systems
[Readers of this blog are probably well aware that I have long argued that any scheme to mitigate or adapt to climate change must provide tangible benefits to consumers.
