Felix Kramer is amazing. The Founder of Cal-Cars.org and leader of the original group that converted the first Toyota Prius to a plug-in hybrid in the U.S. Keep up with www.calcars.org. Felix says "Welcome to 2010: The Year of the Plug-In Car... For CalCars, it's been eight years. Some people we know have been on a two-to-four-decade-long quest. Soon we'll be driving safe, affordable, highway-capable plug-in hybrids and all-electric vehicles from the world's major carmakers and some brash startups. We'll be spending two weeks at the end of the month on the East Coast. In addition to some private events and meetings in Boston and New York to promote the Big Fix, we'll first be attending the Electric Drive Transportation's broad industry Conference and Annual Meeting, January 26-28, held in conjunction with the Washington DC Auto Show. See the full program and sign up at http://electricdrive.org . The following week, again in DC, I'm speaking on gas-guzzler conversions at the Renewable Energy Technology Conference & Exhibition http://www.retech2010.com/ - RETECH2010 includes 250 leaders from industry and the administration, including presentations by key officials in the Department of Energy, to over 5,000 attendees. We're on the "Advanced Vehicles and Batteries" panel http://www.retech2010.com/business-conference#B7 ."
