If Ev is the future there are a lot of considerations to deal with. Evs do fine in commuter distances with moderate temperatures. In a -40f Fargo ND or a + 115f Pheonix the range will be muched reduced due to heating or cooling needs.
Where will all that electric power come from? Coal and natural gas for a long time. the wind and solar can only generate when the sun shines and the wind blows. Wheres the storage - battery - for that to meet demand in times of peak demand
Battery, is a term of reserved power. Today we think of it as an electrical device in our phone or car.
For the solar or wind power gen systems to store power via battery to serve peak demand when the sun dont t shine and the wind dont blow,
' Battery ' must be redifined in populature culture as a storage of energy, in any form.
A lake turning hydroelectric turbines is a battery, the stored energy of the water turning those turbines is a battery. Thats one instance of many.
To put this into perspective, how many places not already used for passive energy storage like water are available.
The addage 'says when no water is available, they will drink the sand'
