Meanwhile: the majority world's electricity is generated from fossil fuels and non - renewables
36% coal; 23% gas; 10% nuclear; 16% hydropower; 5% wind; 11% other sources
And, Hydropower creates issues with mercury level and flooding
The world could be 100% EV, and we would still need almost as much fossil fuel as we ever did
I don't see EVs as the way to put fossil fuels behind us - that is just not realistic
What EVs WILL DO, is create a system where fossil fuels are burned only in certain areas, as opposed to all over the highways, the way they are now
There will be a much greater ability implement the latest and best CLEAN TECHNOLOGIES, such as scrubbers for coal and biomass, burning oil at higher temperatures, etc.
