Black-cab drivers are finding it cheaper to run their hybrid taxis on petrol rather than electricity because of rising prices, the BBC has learned. Drivers relying on rapid and ultra rapid public charging points have seen a 50% price increase in the last year, according to the RAC's Charge Watch. Taxi drivers' unions are calling for lower prices for on-street charging with a reduction in VAT. The government said it had generous tax measures for zero-emissions vehicles. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-65083432 |

Crazy situation, but the cost of electric has risen dramatically. Roll on hydrogen. |
