The Renault-Nissan Alliance (the Alliance) and the State
Government of New South Wales in Australia have formed a partnership to
explore the development of a Zero Emission Vehicles program.
The two organizations have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
under which a working team of representatives from the New South Wales
Government and Nissan will identify potential areas of co-operation in
promoting the use of zero emission vehicles in the State.
"Today, Nissan is proud to partner with the New South Wales government
through the signing of this MOU," said Dan Thompson, Nissan Australia CEO.
"Technology for zero emissions mobility is a reality and we are prepared to
proactively explore ways to bringing this technology to the market with
collaboration from the government. “
“Our company is leading the world in the design and production of a battery powered
family-sized car and we aim to have this vehicle on sale in Australia
by 2012. The announcement of the signing of a strategic MoU with the
Government of New South Wales brings that reality closer,” Thompson
continued. “The Nissan organization recognizes the importance of
sustainability by limiting CO2 emissions and we are ready and able to partner
governments in pursuing that role.”
