This is sheer madness! Electric grids emit a lot of CO2 and adding more load to the grid only increases that. When the losses, which are significant, from generation, transmission and distribution are added this amounts to a large increase in CO2 emissions. It is far better to burn the fuel at the point of use as we do now. There seems to be a belief that elctricity because of some renewable input doesn't produce CO2, that is entirel;y wrong and also the reduction due to what renewables we have connected is not as big as the plain figures give. Until we have 100% nuclear generation there will be no drop in CO2 emissions from electricfication.
@chrishar110 Жыл бұрын
You don't have to burn something (CO2 emissions) to make power. There is the sun, the wind, the water. What is the point that you can not understand? You can have these locally, so you don't need a huge grid like now. Last 20 years the renwables increase 200-500% every year. Nothing is ready yet but you can not invest trillions to make them first before we use them. One step every day, you can't jump thousands of miles in one day.

Electric trucks are a good thing but the market is not ready for them; especially the charging network. They require a lot of energy to charge while most grids still rely on fossil fuels and there isn't a well enough distributed charging network to support operations either so they are limited to fixed routes.
@danharold3087 Жыл бұрын
But for amount of energy needed from the grid this was just as true with Tesla's first car. There are now 40K Tesla charges world wide. Like the Tesla car chargers Tesla will build the truck chargers. This is a rinse repeat for Tesla. Grid scale batteries will allow fast charging in locations w/o a grid sub station. New grid capacity for the trucks will come from renewable rather than coal. Initially these trucks will be sold to fleet operators which does not require an extensive charging network.

Crude oil is what makes America great and honestly even Elon knows that deep down ! But I do understand very well about our climate change and all the diesel pollution and an electric car or truck is great for local stuff close to a charging station. Reminds me of being retired having an electric vehicle just to go local everyday. Also I’m sure they are lots of pollution/burning diesel everyday to un earth the minerals to even make a Tesla battery. I honestly see this electric BS crashing in the years to come because the world can’t wait for hours for a battery to recharge to get a job done quickly around the clock! It’s just people acting like kids with a big bank account and wants a new toy . My Neighbor the other morning is prime example I noticed her sitting on her steps around 7a.m and I heard her call a co worker said please come pick her up she’s got car trouble! Long and behold she has a New Jeep Wrangler Electric vehicle I noticed. As I mentioned I do respect Elon and all corporations trying to save on pollution it’s a great thing but it’s gotta equal out for both sides of the market and for people’s livelihoods can’t take oil away permanently.

All BS. The Tesla Semi costs twice as much and carries less than a standard 18 wheeler. It requires a special charger that costs as much as the truck, $200,000, IF your electrical grid can support it. So you can't long haul you must stay near your Massive charger. Would you like to insure one? The Tesla Semi as an example has a battery 12x as large as a model Y. You've seen EV fires - a fire on a Semi would last hours or days spewing toxic fumes. What will happen to you if one catches fire next to you in the Lincoln tunnel; if you don't burn to death; you'll die of poison gas.
