1 in 3 people live in a terraced house, many have no off road parking and often cannot park outside their homes, hence night time charging is impossible. We had only 2% spare generating capacity during a cold spell, having closed perfectly good coal fired power stations. Infrastructure will need hundreds of billions and we are broke!!. EV`s are nice toys for those who just potter around town and have off road parking. I spoke to a TESLA dealer, the real world range ie, fully loaded, in winter on a motorway is rubbish, 100 to 150 miles max. Imagine the chaos. Battery tech must improve dramatically, half the weight of TESLA is its battery, in a truck they weigh 5tons!! and take a staggering amount of juice to recharge. Not worried about the threat of EV`s for Palladium prices, will be decades. GLA
