[00:00.000]Australia, the world's largest exporter of coal, is addicted to fossil fuels,
[00:05.042]which generate most of its electricity and drives much of its transport system.
[00:10.251]In the Melbourne suburb of Brunswick, conservationists say a small but significant step has been taken towards a cleaner energy future.
[00:19.129]Australia's first solar power charging station for electric cars has been switched on.
[00:25.089]It takes up to five hours to fully replenish a battery that allows an average vehicle to travel about 150 kilometres.
[00:33.176]As the technology improves, it's hoped that batteries could eventually be fully charged within half an hour.
[00:39.442]Environmentalists say that Australia has been slow to embrace electric cars compared to other countries
[00:45.393]because of what they describe as "serious cultural and political resistance" to change.
[00:51.364]Petrol prices recently hit $1.60 a litre here.
[00:55.742]If those costs continue to rise then Australia's indifference to electric-powered vehicles could begin to change.
