14 hour Electric car trek nearly came up short on “almost impossible journey”

A team from Belfast-based Action Renewables set out from Larne, Co Antrim, to a conference in Cork on renewable energy — and almost didn’t make it because a car charging point on the route wasn’t working.
In what sounds like a new kind of road movie, Team BATTERIE took 14 hours to get from Larne to Cork in a Nissan Leaf EV. The trek is believed to be the longest journey undertaken in Ireland by electric car thus far.
