> More specific to Germany, I really don't want to sound like I am against EV but it's something I genuinely wonder about : Say this system becomes popular and tens of thousands of trucks start sucking electricity out of the grid, the electricity demand will skyrocket. Is Germany going to raise the electricity prices to import or build clean plants or just restart a few coal plant? Germany already has increased electricity prices to massively build out its solar and wind turbine network, a lot of those right next to autobahnen. If they can transmit power along those lines, and distribute some storage across it, this could serve as a long-range electricity transmission network for all the renewable capacities scattered over the country. |
