Rationing of electricity and control of movement. I would not be surprised if there are already plans to tie electricity ration quotas into a social credit score system to control behavior and speech.
The reason they tell us is never the real reason.
“tie electricity ration quotas into a social credit score”
Exactly. That’s why they want to ban gas appliances. That’s why I don’t let my solar system talk to the internet.
Yes. Limit movement.
It’s already happening. I just heard from an old friend whose son lives in Portland. He told me of how his son was really smug about buying a Tesla — until he discovered that *charging* the blasted thing puts him way over his quota for electricity usage, and he has to pay a premium rate for all those excess kilowatts he’s consuming.
Correct. Neo-feudalism is part of the plan. Serfs were not allowed to travel without permission of the manor lords. Hence the "15-minute cities" evil being proposed.
People in Florida are often stuck hours in Hurricane evacuation traffic jams. Getting ready to evacuate also includes long lines at gas stations as people fill up for trips to safe zones. And that's with the fact 'filling up the tank' takes five minutes...NOT several hours....
After the last major storm it turned out battery powered cars would catch on fire when their battery was exposed to salt water. On fire with the driver in the car or if the car is parked and hit with storm surge.Battery powered school buses erupted in fire when hit with storm surge.
Fire departments were spending hours putting out the fire of ONE battery operated car. These batteries can burn for hours. And there were many to put out. Big environmental problem. All glossed over by the liberal (sold out) press.
Also EVs are heavier..
Wear out tired and roads..also parking facilities were designed for weight of average ic car..a collection of evs in a parking facility could cause a collapse.
Not to mention a tendency to spontaneously combust.
