THE FUTURE OF
MOBILITY IS HERE
NOVA MACHINA
We don’t reinvent, we convert…
Changing the Way the
World Thinks About Cars
Research by the European Energy Agency found that, even with electricity generation, the carbon emissions of an electric car are around 17 – 30% lower than driving a petrol or diesel car. The emissions from electricity generation are also dramatically improved when low carbon electricity is used.
What we do at Nova Machina
Focusing on commercial fleets, Nova Machina provide bespoke internal combustion to full electric conversions, without losing any real world performance.
DRIVING PERFORMANCE
For the petrol-head naysayers out there; EVs outperform internal combustion engines. They drive more smoothly yet accelerate better, they can be charged at home or at the office, they require much less maintenance, they help solve air quality problems, and they improve the energy autonomy of oil-importing countries.
GRID CHANGES
Given the struggles developing countries are now having with updating legacy electricity supply infrastructure, it’s unlikely electric vehicles will cause rapid change in state-owned grids any time soon. However, there is a rise of companies that develop, build, operate and maintain power plants that generate clean and reliable electricity.
This will support electricity demand as more efficient devices reduce the demand on the grid, and shifts ‘base-load-and-peak-power’ management systems to ‘forecast-and-balance’ management systems, as renewables come on stream and EVs can charge at times of the day when solar or wind power is available.
CHANGING URBAN SPACES
The most obvious change to cities will be the addition of charging points.
Charging stations will be ubiquitous in car parks, whether municipal and multi-storey ones, those belonging to employers, or those outside supermarkets, shopping malls and hotels and restaurants.
Since many potential EV owners don’t own their own garages or driveways, retailers will lead the charge, as they realise free charging is a great way of securing regular, captive customers.
