Electricity is not a source though. Do you mean solar, nuclear, and such? The demand is already there. It's the supply that is the issue.

  Wrong. Storage is the issue. In my town in switzerland we produce a surplus of solar energy, so much that we can't even sell it back to the electricity company. But the storage is too limited. The surplus during the summer doesn't translate to the winter months so other types of electricity generation is still required.

    > Wrong. Storage is the issue And what's great about EVs is that they are also storage. In winter you can buy electricity from places that do have solar potential - it's not far from Switzerland.

      Does an EV have enough storage to adress the issue I mentioned? No. Silly

  GP means source as in for transportation.

  > The demand is already there. It's the supply that is the issue. Somehow many societies are able to power a huge amount of transportation via electrified rail and bus systems. That's an existing solution that requires zero new technology. And of course there are EVs for places that somehow can't figure out how to do electrified mass transit.
