Can someone help me understand how the are going to get the extra electrical generation for all of the required charging of said vehicles. What will they then due with the spent batteries of the said green vehicles, because they can recycle them..... Nope!

The useful thing is the amount of new generating capacity required if the whole country move to EVs is essentially zero.

Currently every power plant runs at about 20% capacity overnight. If EVs are charged on timers they don’t need anything more than the existing spare capacity.

Not to mention when the batteries catch fire (and they do) they cannot be extinguished.
