Yes you know I never hear much about this fundamental problem. It seems to me that EVs do not scale well. All great when you only have a few hundred thousand. but change all the vehicles to electric and one will need to burn a lot fuel to power that and I guarantee the price of electricity will go up! Not that I think we should abandon EV research, just that we need to shake our head and look at a little bigger picture. Atomic energy is not worth the risks in my humble opinion - not yet anyways. Here is BC Canada we use mainly hydro electric generation. very clean. And even it has it's limits and distractions. Interestingly hydro electricity is viewed (by some) as not 'green' yet the burning of hog fuel (trees) in the pulp mill I work at is considered green. Go figure...
