Guess who I bumped into on the street in Davos the other day…..? Well, actually last week at the annual World Economic Forum my job was to bump into people on purpose, in order to explain the virtues of the LEAF-to-Home technology that allows us to harness the electricity in a Nissan LEAF battery - in this case, to heat cocoa drinks. 

 

Day two at Davos and it’s more smiles at the cocoa hut, powered by Nissan’s LEAF-to-home technology, where Nissan Europe’s Matt Loader has been explaining to the crowds how it all works. And, actually, it wasn’t just down to the hot cocoa that they stayed to chat.

 

“I’ve been thinking about an electric car; it sounds like a good idea,” said David Williams, who is in Davos with his wife Carol Dudley-Williams, an executive vice president of The Dow Chemical Company headquartered in Michigan, the US. “The technology is interesting to me.”
