I see a lot of news of these "green" vehicles being used in China but few seem to be questioning where that electricity comes from. Coal power is still a massive thing in China.
- epanchin 8y agoPollution in cities causes huge health issues. Displacing that pollution is a big priority. Centralising electricity generation makes it easier to switch to renewables later on. Also, higher grid usage means more investment. (China is already 24% renewable, about twice the USA.) No-one living in a city is going to question why they’re switching diesel buses to remotely coal generated electricity.
