SA to commercialise electric car
Tuesday, 09 November 2010
Transport Minister Sibusiso Ndebele made the announcement while addressing a G8 ministerial conference on global environment and energy in transport in Rome.
This is part of SA's plan to move towards a low carbon economy across all modes of transport.
"Our automotive sector would be profoundly affected by the long-term shift from the internal combustion engine to cleaner technologies, such as electric vehicles.
The Joule is South Africa's first homegrown electric car and hit the international spotlight in 2010 to rave reviews.
"These measures entail high-level coordination with relevant government departments, investors and development finance institutions, to ensure a coherent and coordinated approach to the development of the sector," he said.
