TEDxDelft - Job van de Kieft - How electric driving can set you free
Loading...
Uploaded by TEDxTalks on Nov 28, 2011
Job van de Kieft is constantly experiencing what it takes to only use electrical transportation to take you where you need to be. He bought himself an electrical scooter to experience this at first hand. Job is for example working with pizza delivery companies to convince them they can make the transition to electrical scooters. Range is the biggest challenge, but Job says it can be done. In his TEDxDelft talk Job spoke about how electric driving can set you free.
On 7 November 2011 over 900 people gathered in the beautiful city of Delft for the first TEDx event in Delft, the Netherlands: TEDxDelft. We had 20 live speakers on stage talking about a wide range of subjects. A few of our speakers: Theo Jansen, Irma Boom, Huba de Graaff, Leo Kouwenhoven, Erik Meijer, Lodewijk van den Berg, Kas Oostheruis, Bauke Steenhuisen and Lowie Vermeersch.

In thespirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I also had an electric scooter and for me it was EXTREMELY empowering. The cost is low even compared to a regular scooter and versus a car or an SUV it's like a license to print money. I ended up selling it to someone who could not drive a high speed vehicle due to physical limitations, and I have kept riding my bike. My dream is to have an ultra-light and streamline plug in battery EV with solar panels for charging. Good Job, Job!
