BYD has secured its place in
the North American market-
place as a premier EV provider.
is news couldn't have come
at a better time. Outlined in
the mayor's plan is replace-
ment of approximately 2,000
fossil fuel sedans with plug-in
EVs, which, combined with the
over 300 EVs currently on the
road in NYC, would mean EVs
will make up half of the city's
non-emergency sedans and
create the largest municipal
electrical vehicle fl eet in the
United States and, potentially,
the world.
Building on BYD's success
in manufacturing iron-
phosphate batteries,
the three green
dreams approach is
designed to eliminate
most of the environ-
mental problems
we face today. ese
three dreams include
zero-emission
solar/wind energy
generation, storing
the energy in safe,
reliable, non-toxic
battery solutions,
and delivering
the renewable energy to an
array of on-road and off -road
vehicles for a measurable
reduction in CO2 emissions.
