Not only that, but you need taxpayers willing to pay for massive upgrades to the power generation and distribution infrastructure.
Not even close if ever.
EVs were TWO PERCENT of USA sales last year.
Some projections see 30% in 2040.
Nighttime electric supplies are twice or more of daytime peak demand.
Plenty to go around.
The dumbasses shutting down new gas permits are a much larger problem.
You too can live in an all-electric community!
But sometimes the lines get hot and we need to shut them down. Dark and peaceful!
I wasn’t talking about next week or next year. They are already talking seriously about banning the sale of fossil fuel vehicles in Europe in the not too distant future.
That could happen here if the radical left takes over. It might not happen as an actual ban, but they have ways of making things so difficult and expensive for those who refuse to submit, it might just as well be a ban.
What happens to your excess capacity when you go from 2% EV use to 30%? What if it’s 80%?
