For the past week there has been a Tesla car parked in the car park next to my school. If I was going to buy an electric car then this is the car I'd buy, fast (very), long range and pretty. Unfortunately its way out of my price range (yes, I checked out the price) even with all the tax deductions in Norway.

Tesla have been hitting the headlines this weekend with their announcement of plans to produce cheap, efficient batteries that will make it possible to store solar power generated in the day to be used at night.
