So can a diesel or propane generator, and they can do it indefinitely, and for much cheaper.
EVs (and consumer solar to a large extent) are an elaborate and clever ruse to externalize the costs of maintaining a weak and aging power infrastructure grid on to consumers while actually reducing energy independence (reliance on rare and expensive parts to fix batteries and proprietary equipment). The environmental "benefits" are far from a foregone conclusion also - how many precious metals are mined under slave-labor conditions to create battery storage? What happens to them en masse at end of life?
Sure makes for great virtue signaling to drive a 3/4 ton "electric" truck though. The smug feelings EV owners enjoy apparently suspend all logic and common sense.
