Some of them
The ones at the top
and that 40Gw is only if half of the car owning household switched to electric
I am sure that some people who are rioting have just bought into the fearmongering
Based on 7.7Kw consumption upon arrival at home after a day's work
I don't know why they feel the need to protest here though
narcissm
I mean our carbon emissions are steadily going down
If they really want to reduce it they should be doing this in India or China
if you were to assess the mental health of climate extinction protestors you would find a much higher incidence of personality and behavioural disorders than in the wider population
they can get the 40Gw from the 37 new windfarms Corbyn is going to build

Brb just gonna build 5-10k more turbines
<:Kapp:426321779221463051>
Well more due to wind not being totally reliable
but I wanted to use the biggest turbines on the newest farm and best efficiency
Make them feel better
Or we could build 10x of the highest capacity nuclear plants in the USA
I always find the ignorance to reality of EV nuts hilarious
Even though i would personally have a tesla, shit is fast and cheap to run.
at all
They currently produce 20gw capacity from wind, with 10k turbines
but you need way more than that just for the cars, and you need baseline which wind and solar cannot provide
Newest offshore has 8MW turbines
So I was using that
they ought to use waste-to-energy for part of the distributed baseline
That 40GW figure was also only half of the ICE car owning households too
well it's going to take more than 6 years
and also using only current home charging power draw
So that number is VERY conservative
until these cultists come back with costed, realistic plans, i'm just not going to take them seriously
This doesnt include charging infrastructure
In place of petrol stations
and remember there need to be MANY MANY more than petrol pumps
Due to it being more than a 2 minute affair
if you plan to support a public charging infrastructure
You don't exactly need to be an electrical engineer to figure out it's not really practically possible with current technology
I know a fair bit
What are we talking about here?
The absolute brownouts that would happen if the climate extremists got their way and we replaced all ICE cars with EVs within a few years
