Nah, they'll use the ever so safe nuclear power, and dump the waste into land and make it dangerous for 000s of years. But it's green and clean, because no CO emissions. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

God I wish people would stop demonising nuclear power.
No, let's chase the red herring of renewables. Far better.
Battery tech is getting better and better due to e-bike use, and the growing leisure use of them.
Better intercity transport options and we wouldn't need such hench batteries anyway.
Will be interesting to see who brings out the first hybrid/full electric sports motorcycle
The scary thing about electric vehicles is they are silent. Used to hate the things in China, whipping around footpaths being driven by imbeciles.
But correctly regulated they would be awesome ____________________ Top cat

FTFY. |
That's a strange definition of fix. Injecting wild conjecture and personal opinion into an answer that is already caveated doesn't really constitute a fix in my book.
In terms of raw emissions per unit of energy generated they are broadly comparable. However this is such a reductive way of looking at it that it borders on being entirely nonsensical. You haven't taken into account efficiency of generation, heat wastage, Production/refinement of fuel, transport of fuel, type of fuel used, efficiencies of scale etc. etc.
As for practical, convenient and capable? Not for you maybe, but surprisingly, not everyone has your use case for an electric vehicle.

I'm not against nuclear power. It has a lot of potential, but...that ship has sailed. The market killed it, nuclear power can't be generated at anything approaching a competitive price, due to various problems like how long it takes to prepare the site, decommission the site, dispose of waste ect. If nuclear could actually stand on it's own 2 feet without need huge subsidies it might stand a chance, but not as it currently is. ____________________ I tell you what, mathematically, I'm having it |

So they are to be powered by Percy Power, the power of positive thought and good feelings, and the world of could, and that's why we should get all excited.
We're getting off our dependence of limited resource of "fossil" fuels, and instead to become dependent on lithium and other "rare earth" minerals. I'm sure this will herald in the era of world peace and other good feels now we don't have to go to war over that horrible oil stuff. I'll get my acoustic guitar and start singing Kumbaya. ____________________ Prize cunt

If electric cars come first you claim it's pointless because fossil fuels still make all the power.
I suppose if nuke plants and the renewable stuff came first you'd claim it's pointless because there are still so many oil-powered cars around causing all the problems.
You're trying to suggest it's a no-win situation where the best and only option is to sit and do nothing. Nonsense |
