    How many of you guys want to go back to your dial up internet, party lines or pre GPS auto steering equipment? I think we can safely say zero.

    Most new technology is much better and a huge advancement.

    We have been using electricity to power many things for a long time. Battery costs have come down and have improved significantly and will continue to improve with solid state batteries coming in a couple of more years. And after that there will be continuous innovation.

    And many EVs can be charged during the day while they are parked at work. That would be the ideal time to charge them when there is lots of low cost solar electricity.

    We need more lower cost EVs that are close to the cost of ICE vehicles. That will happen. For most consumers EVs will easily cover their transportation needs.

    The reason why many people are holding back on current EVs is cost and lack of charging infrastructure that makes range anxiety a concern.

      Just remember all of your examples were demand driven.

          Tripling the generation and tripling grid is FREE! How lucky!
          The demand for materials to do that will make costs sky rocket. Unviable.
          Fixing something that's NOT broke. Woke bastards.

            That’s the astonishing thing that is never talked about . The infrastructure alone is near impossible for decades and the materials needed for 100% EV’s will cause untold environmental destruction and are even more limited than oil and gas .
            But hey why look at the basics, we now live in a fairy tail world of woke ideology that is mostly pretend anyway

                Apparently that big battery plant coming to Canada which our government subsidized for billions in hopes of providing 1600 jobs is not what Trudeau envisioned. The permanent jobs are to be filled by Koreans and the builders tfw’s. Aurora has to start finding accommodations for all these folks. Allegedly Trudeau wasn’t aware there would be little to no Canadians hired.

                    And yet 98% of green house gases is the villain water vapour that the experts leave out of every debate.
