My Britz electric camper van is recharging itself, converting speed back into battery juice.

Photos: Peter Dowden I'm on a mission to see if freedom camper van travel can be carried out responsibly and with minimum impact on the environment. My home for the week: a very comfortable, fully-kitted-out Britz EV double-berth camper van, with toilet, shower, stove-top, microwave and fridge. That’s the fee for having your on-board toilet tank emptied by the camper van hire company.
