I have residential solar in Michigan of all places and power our all EV household with it. We can do this at grid scale if we just stop listening to the same old lies the fossil fuel and nuclear industries have been pushing for decades.

Just to be clear - I am trying to say that solar and wind are worthwhile to pursue in addition to the fossil fuel energy sources and infrastructure that exist now. But solar and wind won't replace fossil fuel, unless we drastically reduce fossil fuel consumption. > I have residential solar in Michigan of all places and power our all EV household with it.

We need more of this. I want this too.
- greenthrow 2y agoEVs already drastically reduce our need for kWh by virtue of being so muck more efficient than ICE vehicles. Add on other much more efficient technologies and we will need far less energy per household in the future than we do today. However, even if that were not true, we could still easily replace all our current consumption with renewables. The idea that we can't is another fossil fuel industry lie.
