A Video Interlude: About Those Electric Vehicles
"One of the first things I teach students on the first day of energy policy classes I have taught is how energy density works, and how a battery is a device to store energy at high densities. But at a certain point, when you increase the energy density enough, we donβt call it a battery any more. We call it a bomb." LINK

Well, Who Would Have Guessed That!
UK EV Makers Put The Brakes On Production As They Are Too Expensive To Sell
It is now expected the UK will produce 280,000 fully electric cars and vans in 2025, down from previous estimates of 360,000. Only a quarter of car output will be electric within the next two years, lower than prior forecasts of more than a third.
Sales of pure electric cars were 267,000 last year, so this forecast suggests flatlining. A large proportion of EV sales are for company cars, due to the various tax breaks bestowed. Most private buyers appear to be numpties who think they are saving the planet. EVs offer nothing to the vast majority of the driving public, and it is hard to see any real breakthrough anytime soon.
This highlights the immense problems for the car industry as it faces pressure by governments to invest billions in new assembly lines and engine plants, whilst at the same time running down conventional car operations. On top of that, they may find that they cannot sell all of the EVs they are producing; or alternatively if they cut back on EV output, they risk losing market share.

Yep 100%! All while the young third worlders are making $2 a day packing bags filled with hard earned, mined cobalt to a truck at the top of a hill!

Re: Great Thread Riddick!
Hi Riddick,
If the rush to build EV's can't be EXACTLY compared to the old adage of "Putting the cart before (owning) a horse". I am at a loss for words!
Sweden's VW/SCANIA, like Elon Musk's semi, are going green fast with their commercial vehicles. I let them have my opinion PDQ! β¨
7 places got my same note......
Right on! There's E-juice from coal as long as that charging cable is not cut by a copper thief during inflated times! Which nation will get the most credit bringing the changes needed to repair the climate before 2035? From SCANIAowner online at https://www.soundCloud.com

Daily Fetched.......
Unsold electric cars continue to pile up on dealer lots in their thousands amid the auto industryβs apparent miss judgement of buyer's demands while attempting to compete with Tesla.

Auto dealerships don't own the new cars, trucks & farmequipment as much as most think they do.π·

Our Gilligan's Island Carbon-Free Future
Can't afford an EV? TS. Own one but can't charge it? TS. The folks at Power Line Blog have long said there is no transition to green energy - What we're witnessing is a transition from a free market to a command & control socialist economy -
Carbon-free means energy-free, NOT free energy: It'll be super expensive, IF you can get it. No lights, no phone, no motor car, not a single luxury; like Robinson Crusoe, life will be primitive as can be. If you're not an elite like John Kerry that is.

Let's add fentanyl to the CCP mix as the radical worst in China for #2 and their EV's too.
We know this but too many ignore the fact that EVs of all sizes are potential bombs! Never charge any PEOPLE MOVER "Made in China" with an "E" in front of it, indoors!
Check out this indoors event before one fellas first cup of coffee!

Always remember that the CCP will never forget their 900,000 troops lost in North Korea.
You will NEVER hear that fact on MSN!
