Energy Collective Featured Blogger Shai Agassi is the subject of a nine-page cover story in the September issue of Wired magazine (not yet available online).  The article, titled "The Future of the Electric Car - One Man's Audacious Plan to Change the Way the World Drives," tells the story of how Agassi left SAP and "launched the fifth-largest startup of all time in less than a year."  The company, Better Place, is beta testing its vision of a nationwide auto charging grid in Israel, his native country.

"Once you have a mission," Agassi tells the author, "you can't go back to having a job."
