...but then they’re not ‘generators’, just ‘energy storage’ devices. Just like cars, if you run out of gas you can bring more gas to the (stranded) vehicle. Unlike batteries, you have to either tow the vehicle to a charging station or bring some device (diesel generator!?) to the vehicle.

Gas is so energy dense and easy to store, unlike batteries, once dead you’re done.

This is a dumb policy. Their claims about a leaf blower vs. Camry miles is absurd if you’re talking about CO2, their main claim to ‘climate change’. They’d have to be referring to other gases.

I just can’t see them allowing nuclear battery.
