THE TALK
The ecological conversion of conventional cars is one of the most sustainable ways of accelerating the transition toward electrification of the existing car fleet, reducing their environmental impact. During the talk, the rationale of this proposal is discussed, and the results of a European project aimed at the development and industrialisation of a system to convert conventional cars into hybrid solar vehicles will be presented.
