Quote from: DKG on August 27, 2024, 07:01:29 AMTrudeau's vehicle transormation plans would require 15.3% more power generation. That is the equivalent of ten mega dams or 13 natural gas power plants.

A few years back, I calculated how many Hoover Dams it would take just to power Californias 3.3 million cars not IF, but WHEN they go all electric. Its about 30 and thats if you are only charging 1.1 million at a given time. Unrealistic? Maybe, but even if its only 1/6th charging, thats 15 and even if its 1/12th, thats 7.5 Hoover Dams. BTW, none of this considers the all electric semi truck mandate which will be way fucking more power.

Where do you even get 3 Hoover Dams worth of power in California when fossil fuels are gone and all the cars AND semi's must be electric?

In my province, we're already being told not to plug in electric cars during peak power usage.
