Electric vehicles
#44
Hi Ian,
I have just spoken with Marcus who also corrected my assertion about how generation for the grid works here. I am told that 25% of our generation can be from thermal energy. He also warns that if EV numbers increase it could compromise the grid capacity. At present numbers are less than 1% of the fleet and importation is low comparatively.
I stand by my opinion they are good for our purpose and no worse than ICE powered cars in respect to the environment and very much better where the concentration of vehicles is high.
What is good is that the emergence of EV transport has raised the awareness of the effect of the motor car on the environment especially in the eastern countries who are burning fossil fuels indiscriminately , in huge quantities and the health of their population is suffering as well as the health of our ecosystem.
Regards Steve Hainsworth
