Nearly half of all EV owners say they would rather have a ICE car. But then, they might have been making batteries for the little bombs we carry in out pockets.

The plant I used to work in made parts from magnesium.

Occasionally a part being machined would catch fire from from friction. There were barrels of some kind of black looking sand around to suck the heat away and to snuff out the air from getting to the part.

In the old days, you would build ONE power plant to meet your needs. It would ramp up and ramp down to meet the instantaneous electrical demand.

Now you need TWO power plants to meet the same need. Wind and solar make what they want. You cannot ramp them up or down. So, in addition to Power Plant #1 (wind and solar), you must now build expensive Power Plant #2 to fix that problem — pumped hydro or batteries.

Does doubling your capital cost make sense to you?
