These politicians don't know what they're fucking about
Booty-jig.
No. That's why we have to buy stocks in companies that upgrade the infrastructure and pay them to upgrade the infrastructure. Win.
What a waste of time. Instead of bothering with how much a refrigerator or A/C uses, he should have got right down to the key figure that matters, the total amount of electricity generated in the USA or the particular state at the moment, and the amount more that would be required for widespread EV charging. That’s a figure you can easily compare to power stations and the time it takes to construct them.
A road trip, say…. NY to Florida, I-95 south. It'll take about 2+ weeks, having to charge every hour and spend over an hour at the station. You'll need to charge THAT to your ''electric bill account card'', say about $10 grand. You'll need motel stays and food. And what if these batteries(made in China) do what hover board and e-bike batteries commonly do? Explode as you're entering S. Carolina?
Just keep doing exactly what the government wants you to use as much electricity as you possibly can the more you use the less we will contribute to global warming.
Great. Now they will come for our refrigerators and AC so we can charge our cars instead
Of course Massie forgot to mention, as he does himself, the additional power generation from residential pv systems and the ever expansion of pv farms.
I used to be all for Tesla cars ( read Edison) and "renewable " . Imagine how much of fossil fuel you need to burn to build one electric car and they all bad mouthing the energy that made their pipe dream possible .
In my opinion you know when electric car would make sense.
When you use man power to dig instead of heavy machinery
so what will happen if you live in flats, or apartment blocks with no parking. where are you going to charge your cars up ??? or you dont have a drive way to install charging stations ? or even can afford to install one ???
See it Now America ⁉️ They are Destroying America's Economy Knowing These EV's Are Not Going To Work They Have Taken Infrastructure Out of the Bill 🤬
This is the Biggest Scandel of the Century 💯✔️
⚡⚡🐂💩⚡⚡
I'm guessing the politician doesn't understand the idea of shooting for the stars, and you might get the moon. If you base your decisions purely on what is possible RIGHT NOW, you'll never get anywhere. When Herb Brooks coached the 1980 us Olympic hockey team, he didn't say he wanted to just compete with the Russians, he said he want to BEAT the Russians. Most said it wasn't possible. But, they did it. And, won the gold. If we set a goal for 50% of all vehicles by 2030, maybe we get 30%. If we set a goal for 20%, maybe we only hit 10%. Goals should ALWAYS be lofty. Anything less is for losers.
Where does that energy come from? Such a joke. I just can't laugh anymore. Windmills.
Managed electric vehicle (EV) charging balances vehicle energy needs and site energy control objectives. Managed charging can ensure that fleet vehicles are properly powered when needed, while reducing unnecessary burden on the site's building infrastructure and supporting a more reliable and resilient grid.
Here's a good study for both you Reps. https://ses.lbl.gov/publications/grid-impacts-electric-vehicles-and
Watch the Energy Transition Show. And learn what has been done in this area over the last 30 years. Does Massie think we just went to the moon one day? Why doesn't he know about all of the studies on EV to grid integration? Or is he just ignoring the science to make a cheap oloitical point, which is factually baseless. https://energia.pr.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2022/01/20220127-Chris-Nelder-PREB-Managed-Charging.pdf
Lessons from poo rub pete.
The Bottyman is clueless.
All this talk is as bad as the idea of living on Mars.
Translation: politicians are not engineers and dont know shit about dick
The dems are absolutely nuts, stupid, or intentionally malicious, either way, we can’t afford them
And what fifty percent of Americans can afford the electric car and the increase cost of their electric bill and the cost to put charging port in their home?Not to mention the increase in time it takes to charge a car.
No country has figured this out this man is lying right through his teeth when he said this! Every country that is tried something and a radical change has not worked out in the only way progress can work is in slow increments not radical change the bureaucracy of politicians will not work they have to get the farmers involved in agriculture, They have to get truck drivers involved for the delivery they have to get the processing plant involved in the processing and so on and so on to figure out where everything is going to have to be upgraded. Politicians do not know anything they only know how to argue moot point,s! And every time they have one of these congressional hearings they beat around the bush until the time runs out and They Dodge every question, so sad!!!
"I get paid a government paycheck and can afford to buy expensive solar panels on my house that I own so I can charge my electric sports car in my 5 car garage and I don't know why the American people can't either"
Other countries that have figured this out he says name one that has I know of none.
F*** California!! In PA we like gas!!! Burn it if you got it!!! TRUMP2024
A family with two teenage kids living at home. Rotating cars on a single charger daily. Won’t this be fun.
"We're going to adopt a renewable energy policy (force you via market manipulation and sweet corporate kickbacks/incentives) to get your hands on an electric vehicle by 2030, if you need a vehicle. Not only will you end up paying the on average $40,000+ for an all-electric vehicle, but you'll also be paying the price of the enormous electricity bill this will incur. And that's if there isn't a blackout in your quadrant of the grid three times that day. And hey, if there is, money saved, right?!"
The grid can’t handle the current needs and we would have high voltage overhead and underground on every single block and right away. we’d have thousands more coal fire power plant’s and countless generating stations. Plus the footprint just from mining an already rare source of batteries in lithium would be astronomical especially because most of it is mined with diesel and other fossil fuels
Pete is amazing.
California to go full electric automobiles while they are e already experiencing rolling blackouts 🤣😂
What do the people who live in the city do where are they to plug into they do not have garages they park on the street how is this even possible
Buttijudge is just another pompous democrat that believes they are our intellectual superior when not a one could carry my water.
