> Nobody I know wants to do the same for electric vehicles, they are simply too dangerous. Okay? But there are PLENTY of people who are willing to. There are already relatively large EV battery recycling operations up and running. There are already businesses repurposing old EV battery packs for stationary energy storage. EVs aren't THAT dangerous. You should have safety training to handle their batteries. But relevant safety training is something you need for almost all jobs that are even moderately complex these days. This kind of training is completely routine for all car mechanics in Norway now since 90% of new cars are EVs. I don't see any reason to think car mechanics in other countries are somehow less able to learn these things. There's no data to indicate that EVs are more dangerous than ICE. There's some risks that are eliminated (gasoline fuel fires, carbon monoxide poisoning) and some new risks (high battery voltage, battery fire). But all-in-all there is no data pointing to more deaths after the share of EVs in Norway hit 90% of car sales (and reaching 20-30% of cars on the road in many areas).
