I never really understood this argument to be for or against EVs. Electricity is an universal energy source. It can be created via renewables or fossil fuels.

I never really understood this argument to be for or against EVs. Electricity is an universal energy source. It can be created via renewables or fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are also a limited resources and have the ability to become depleted. Renewables might have a temporal limitation. Infrastructural changes, such as sending excess solar electricity to cloudy locations can offset this via HVAC or HVDC lines. Since fossil fuels are a limited resource, they should be saved and used when renewables can not. This also improves national security and pushes fossil fuels to be better rationed. The middle east is also a big investor in solar. Just like a drug dealer, when you consume your own product this reduces ability to sell and make more money. By offsetting fossil fuel for creating electricity with solar, they can make more money by selling oil they normally would be burning. Wouldn't it also be a better use of energy to charge EVs at night instead of having always on street lamps spending millions to shoot photons into space in order to offset the low user consumption during the time period?
