I didn’t even read more than a couple sentences of your post, the efficiency of delivering electricity to your home stands at around 50% at best.
I’ve heard the argument about how efficient the powerplants are, if you do some research you’ll learn about the massive loss of power getting the energy to your home.
I understand a lot of these posts are good-natured and well intended but it’s impossible with our current electrical infrastructure to deliver power to charge vehicles at every home, apartment building, condo, high rise, business, not only that but the arguments I’m seeing here do not even take into account, I don’t know about where you people live but in my community there’s three or more cars at each home.
As it is right now we have a peak power usage time of three hours a day at $12 a kilowatt hour.
Somebody else posted the power grid struggles in some areas of California, well I agree 100% but the power grid struggles all over this nation during any heatwave, god every summer NYC struggled, now go and plug two or three cars in at every home randomly in every community in America and you tell me the wind blowing and the sun shining is going to keep them charged up.
There is no way and we are going to need a massive building of nuclear power plants along with the infrastructure to carry the electricity to homes and businesses.
So far I haven’t seen anything how we would get past a maximum of 20% electric vehicles and as I previously posted more realistic about 10%. We don’t have the power we do not have the generation capacity and we do not have the infrastructure meaning powerlines to deliver that power.
Everyone has to look at the big picture not just people with large homes that can have solar panels what about the millions of people who live in apartments condominiums the list goes on and on and on.
Hope this all came out right I’m actually on my phone on the way home from the gym
