Mkirsch you hit it on the head.
Most don’t understand electricity and circuits. Some that do, don’t understand the cost of construction and infrastructure improvements. And most of us I’m guessing, don’t understand the cost of large scale electricity production, transmission and distribution.
What’s funny is when the died in the wool EV proponents (you know who you are...) spout off about how great it “would be” and how simple it “would be.”
Take, idk how many, 250,000 campgrounds RV parks and other camping places. And 50 sites per each and 50 amps (minimum for your grocery getter toad, make it 250A to charge the bus). How many campground owners public or private are going to go drop $1millon or more to upgrade their grid and distribution and electric services when they have trouble spending $10k to remodel the bath house?
Yes EVs will get more popular. Yes they will be even more popular in urban areas, but the “dreamers” here fail to see that electricity doesn’t grow on trees.
Maybe Liz, Bernie or Biden will figure it out for them....
