Let's give them some credit here - they've done quite a lot to move the EV industry forward and widespread EV adoption will wreak havoc on the oil industry. Exactly whom and how badly it'll hit is hard to predict, but Norway will be able to take a hit regardless.
But "hypocrisy" aside, the article is generally spot on. Climate change will be addressed by lowering incomes or standards of living anywhere in the world. Schemes to make people give up comforts, personal transport or their houses are going to fail. Schemes that aim to simply decarbonize existing lives (EVs, heat pumps, air capture fuels, carbon capture, novel protein) will succeed. Essentially, convincing people to switch to carbon free alternatives (EVs, protein) is about as much as you can expect from people.
