Batteries for cars are dumb. Wait! Hear me out. Batteries are expensive, heavy, and very difficult and dangerous to dispose of. Crashed EVs can spontaneously ignite days after the crash that damaged them. Wrecking yards and such are already having to deal with this issue. Firemen and other first responders have to deal with this when trying to clear EV car crashes off the highway. Alcohol, on the other hand, has waaaaaaay more energy density, the byproducts of combustion are non-toxic, anyone can make it with household materials, and since it's made from plants all the energy is solar and it's carbon-neutral. Also, most ICE cars can be easily modified to use it. It used to be common for farmer to grow their own fuel. Alcohol fuel makes sense as part of a regenerative local economy. Imaging something like a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm that delivers gallons of fuel as well as groceries.
