Lifting heavy things up is cool but expensive. Batteries are way more compact but don't last too long.
It's a hard problem. Hopefully one of those magic battery tech from the past will be ready at some point.
On the contrary, the difficulty of switching to full electricity is very country dependant: some countries rely heavily on gas, some use electricity for everything. I didn't have gas in any of my houses for the last 10+ years.
On the automotive front, you already have the market and the high price of EV to make sure EV adoption will be gradual. I'm sure over time we can adapt to the increased demand with incremental improvements.
