Would EVs make the problem worse, or better? I'd expect EVs to make better power infrastructure more common and thus cheaper to find.

- Joel_Mckay 3y agoEnergy Commodity prices are an unavoidable variable cost in most factories. EVs push their true cost onto the entire grid, and thus every resident/business subsidizes the fleet operation with added service costs due to resource scarcity driven prices. I do like the idea of EVs in many ways, but only when combined with distributed power generation infrastructure like standalone home solar arrays. EVs suck power in large cities and or locations the require battery temperature management... outside in cold <4'C climates a Tesla Lithium battery heater is like having a fuel tank that will leak out in a few days... thus, it is always leaking energy unless in a heated garage. Not an immediate problem, till you have millions of units commuting in -18'C weather. Have a wonderful day, and lets admire the sycophantic idealism of EVs together. =) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX4PJDA4MQg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX4PJDA4MQg
