FREDA LEWIS-STEMPEL did a 1,000 mile road trip in the new Tesla Model 3 using only green energy - is range anxiety over?

Is it really such a massive tribulation and nerve-racking experience taking an electric car on a long trip? Leg one: Tesla Tottenham to Tebay Services, Cumbria The 1,000 mile road trip from London to Scotland and back involved some scenic charging, while topping the car's range up with only renewable energy Using the Supercharger network and the wider charging network including Swarco E.Connect it was actually very easy to only use clean energy to charge the car, and still not get range anxiety Setting off from Tesla Centre Tottenham with around 340 miles of charge, there was no need to plug in before Tebay as I was predicted to arrive with just over 50 miles of battery range remaining. A quick stop in Dundee Dundee is Scotland's leading EV city thanks to the EV initiatives and smart charging solutions installed by Dundee Council and the Drive Dundee Electric team Dundee might be Scotland's leading EV city now – thanks to over 12 years of hard work by Fraser Crichton, corporate fleet manager at Dundee City Council and the Drive Dundee Electric team – but it's naturally on the air-pollution backfoot because of its geographical setup. At the Clepington Road charging hub, the eco reach goes far beyond the car – it's part of Fraser's aim to 'deliver residents and visitors clean water every 0.5km'. At the Clepington Road charging hub, the eco reach goes far beyond the car: there's a Bluewater rainwater filtration system to give people access to clean water and cut plastic use, it uses second life EV batteries and renewable energy, and it's accessible for disabled users Second life EV batteries – which can no longer power an EV - store solar energy to use when energy demand is higher.
