The power grid will NEVER support a massive switch to EVs. Maybe if they bring ALL of the coal fired generating plants back on line and build plenty of new ones. Start building them now. Not LATER. And EVERYTHING that goes with that. They better figure out what to do with all of the spent solar arrays first. Time to end the tax credits for EVs, have REAL market purchase costs and charge an equvalent of the tax on a gallon of ICE fuel per KWH. Still have to pay for the roads for the EVs to roll on. Spot on. CA can't even keep the lights on, consistently, now they're going to add millions of electric cars that will siphon more energy from the grid? Hilarious. The grid will never take it. No more tax credits. Real market price. However.....the '68 911 from Zelectric is pretty cool. And there was an article in the WSJ recently that profiled a couple of shops that retrofitted our vintage cars with electric drives (Zelectric and Lunaz Design). I can see that being a law at some point: all vintage cars retrofitted by 20XX date. The SL Shop in the UK has an electric R107. It's gonna happen I'm afraid. |
