[alarmguy]

Nuclear is a long term solution but shortsightedness with this zero emission way of generating power is an issue for an electric world and it’s EV agenda.

Swiss officials said this week they could limit electric vehicle use during potential energy crisis this winter, along with sporting events, concerts, and cryptocurrency mining.

It is inevitable the same thing is going to happen all over if this EV craze continues. People will be begging for their old ICE vehicle.

Seems like at least in Switzerland EVs are a risky way to electrify virtual signaling.

Get them wound up!

No one will beg for anything. Just hiccups to work out as we transition to EV or a mix of ICE and EV and other tech.

EU / NATO nations are in a darn if you do and darn if you don't situation.

You can also get into oil crisis if Russia oil stop flowing and a blockade happens between ME oil and EU / NATO. So, unless everyone there use plug in hybrid and commute within the battery range daily only, you have to pick your poison.

At least if the electricity crisis happen they will only be for a few days (typically how long cold spell last), and during day time the temperature will rise a bit and people drive a lot less and stay home in those weather.

Since the cause is largely political and changing anything will be political, so topics about inherently political subjects are going to be political. Virtue signaling from either side is virtue signaling.
