Even though i would personally have a tesla, shit is fast and cheap to run.

2019-10-10 19:53:47 UTC  

Just isnt practical for mass replacement yet

2019-10-10 19:53:48 UTC  

at all

2019-10-10 19:54:08 UTC  

They currently produce 20gw capacity from wind, with 10k turbines

2019-10-10 19:54:27 UTC  

but you need way more than that just for the cars, and you need baseline which wind and solar cannot provide

2019-10-10 19:54:29 UTC  

Newest offshore has 8MW turbines

2019-10-10 19:54:35 UTC  

So I was using that

2019-10-10 19:55:20 UTC  

they ought to use waste-to-energy for part of the distributed baseline

2019-10-10 19:55:32 UTC  

That 40GW figure was also only half of the ICE car owning households too

2019-10-10 19:55:55 UTC  

well it's going to take more than 6 years

2019-10-10 19:55:59 UTC  

and also using only current home charging power draw

2019-10-10 19:56:09 UTC  

So that number is VERY conservative

2019-10-10 19:56:42 UTC  

until these cultists come back with costed, realistic plans, i'm just not going to take them seriously

2019-10-10 19:56:45 UTC  

This doesnt include charging infrastructure

2019-10-10 19:56:51 UTC  

In place of petrol stations

2019-10-10 19:57:07 UTC  

and remember there need to be MANY MANY more than petrol pumps

2019-10-10 19:57:15 UTC  

Due to it being more than a 2 minute affair

2019-10-10 19:57:31 UTC  

if you plan to support a public charging infrastructure

2019-10-10 20:01:05 UTC  

You don't exactly need to be an electrical engineer to figure out it's not really practically possible with current technology

2019-10-10 20:03:33 UTC  

I know a fair bit

2019-10-10 20:03:40 UTC  

What are we talking about here?

2019-10-10 20:04:15 UTC  

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

2019-10-10 20:08:10 UTC  

Obviously they want to build more power generators as well

2019-10-10 20:10:04 UTC  

you're all wrong. we just need one Boris fusion reactor

2019-10-10 20:10:23 UTC  

<:Pepe_of_akkad:462279833511264257>

2019-10-10 20:10:48 UTC  

It's easy

2019-10-10 20:11:23 UTC  

we just gotta find at least 2500 Square KM for wind turbines!

2019-10-10 20:11:38 UTC  

and use sailboats to get them here from Denmark

2019-10-10 20:11:41 UTC  

Put solar panels on roofs 🙂

2019-10-10 20:12:14 UTC  

You'd have to give grants for that

2019-10-10 20:12:24 UTC  

Feeder tarriffs just got removed in march

2019-10-10 20:12:36 UTC  

So they now take 20-70 years to pay off

2019-10-10 20:12:37 UTC  

but seriously, fusion isn't going to happen until at least the 2030s

2019-10-10 20:12:40 UTC  

Literally pointless

2019-10-10 20:12:46 UTC  

if not later

2019-10-10 20:13:01 UTC  

a typical array is 2-5kw

2019-10-10 20:13:18 UTC  

depending on weather

2019-10-10 20:13:21 UTC  

facing of the house

2019-10-10 20:13:22 UTC  

Etc

2019-10-10 20:13:24 UTC  

God I just want eco-Fascism.

2019-10-10 20:14:26 UTC  

So yeah every house in the country
