Where's that going to come from?
EVs IS Still the topic Besoeker! it is the other side of the
equation? Demand as opposed to supply, which your posts
mostly deal with, your latest, above, sets out very clearly the
problems we face with the present infrastructure in satisfying
the peak demand requirements for going over to EVs!
I think the example you give above is the clearest, most
understandable l have read thus far, even a politician should
be able to grasp it?
It is clear from this that it will have to be brought on stream
in carefully managed stages over an extended period of
time?
We should start with one city as a test subject, and then
extend from there with any modifications that are found
neccassary
I believe it will need a couple of new nuclear power stations
to supply the basic power so it wont be cheap!

PS the sooner we start the better so we must get our
politics sorted out first! GHU!
