Thank you for you insite. Video below explains how much solar is needed to charge Tesla.When the Shakers “decided” to use water energy to power saw blades and other production devices three specific things had to happen
- consider the work (demand)
- harness the energy (infrastructure)
- implement the mechanics
EVERYTHING ever developed has to at base process those elements.
We’re maybe 1/3 developed on the harness end for EV (tech development not available resources), and I suspect 50% capable of implementing.
The demand part: we’ve not really addressed this- it’s really all reactionary. The demand part is predicated on availability of the energy.
Simple example: I can heat water off-grid with propane and a few milliwatts to initiate ignition. The cost is almost nothing. But how much does it cost to heat that same water with solar electric? At the demand level “we” expect?
Sure, individually we can make it work and people do- but on the same “scale” of BTUs how many of us can produce enough watts to charge an EV to begin with- or economically at all? Can we afford to wait two weeks or mire for two days of vehicle use?
These are odd little thoughts that the mainstream do not consider because they essentially think one can just plug in to limitless power and the world will be doing a happy dance.
Hydrogen fuel cells are an option, In fact the EU Ask Russia about using the pipeline to transmit hydrogen gas and they confirmed it would handle it with no problem. China is working on having One million fuel cell cars on the road by 2030
China goes ahead with hydrogen-powered cars, defying Elon Musk's warnings
In a 15-year plan for new-energy vehicles released on Nov. 2, China's State Council said the country will focus on building the fuel-cell supply chain and developing hydrogen-powered trucks and buses
