[@tiomkinnyborg2289]

The majority of people think an EV is just a normal car with an electric motor in it. You plug it in instead of going to a petrol/gas station. They have no idea about the amount of power needed to recharge the battery at a fast rate. Nor do they account for the giant battery packs need to store all the power. They are ignorant to the fact of the child labor and pollution in making the battery. They do not factor in all the extra electricity that will be needed to run those cars. They think electric just magics itself in your plug and is clean. To them an EV is just another appliance. 'Plug & Go'. But now at least the truth is slowly dawning on them.

A car drives 33,2 km on average in Australia. 350kwh will teoreticaly fill a Tesla model S Plaid in 17 minutts, and with let you drive an average of 15 days. Oil prices are controlled by a corrupt cartel with mostly dictatorships. Those countries wants to kill you, so they use the money on missiles and suicide vests, while driving up the gas prices.

Many Ford dealers sued because the company was trying to force them into selling EV's which meant that they had to install charging stations which could cost over a million $$ each. And that is IF the local grid had enough capacity to handle the additional load. People were wondering why it would cost so much to install a charging station? You have to install the chargers, the lines to the chargers from a substation that has to be built to supply them and lines from the main grid to the new substation. It's a LOT of work even IF the grid can handle it...which many can not. It's lunacy thinking that EV's can be adopted quickly.

The entire business model is flawed. It seems ever possible stupid mistake was a standard operating procedure in every EV charging model. It began with no standard for connectors and continued with ridiculously complex operation requiring a smart phone and "Apps". One has to wonder why no effort was put into making EV charging as close to a normal vehicle filling station as possible. I have traveled all over America and even in the most remote gas stations, you just pull up to the pump, put your credit card in the slot, the pump is comes to life, you put the standard nozzle from the pump into your standard fuel tank opening and that's it. No need for any "apps" no need for any cellular service or smart phone. Your vehicle isn't required to "link" to anything either. Why is EV charging so different?

He was in newspapers as the face of the government's EV projects, and dished out subsidies for a few years...then he was hired by one of those companies he gave lots of government subsidies to.

Economics of EV charging stations: 1) large capital outlay. 2) hope that someone else buys an EV and will use your charging station. 3) high cost of electric, land, hardware, software, technicians to repair charging station. 4) limited number of EVs can recharged measured in hours per car. Cost of starting gasoline filling stations in early 1800s & 1900s: 1) buy a barrel of gasoline and a hand pump. 2) buy ICE vehicle. 3) number of cars that can be refilled is limited by the number of barrels and later the number of pumps measured in cars per hour. 4) when enough ICE vehicles are in a city, then build an expensive gas station.

And the hits keep on coming. Efficiency is the way forward not EVs

[@Chris.Davies]

Just arrived in Soeul, which is the most futuristic city I've ever visited. EV Taxis are all over the place, with the ioniq 5 being very popular. Driver says Ioniq5 is stupidly efficient compared to petrol. So, if a driver here, is happy with his car, then EVs are not a disaster everywhere. But today I reckon I saw, admired, and used close to 10 trillion usd worth of infrastructure, and South Korea is a truly amazing place! Also, everyone i know with an EV in NZ absolutely love them. So it seems eEVs are great if you live in the right place, and you have the right use-case!

[@paulsimpson8990]

Australia is the perfect place…70% of renewables in the grid. Lithium mines, iron ore 👍 most of the comments on here are from the USA or other equally moronic countries 😂😂😂

[@richardvr5448]

Imagine that the power companies get a rebate when they charge others to power ur EV. Imagine that the money you spend on the roads is being diverted to line a politicians pockets. Imagine that the only thing a battery is good for is to DC a powered thing then eventually that battery dies after multiple charges. Imagine that people who think that EVs are good for the environment. When will people just do the basic research and learn about having YOUR OWN opinion on things instead of the woke dooms day thought. I imagine in 20 years from now when I drive my petrol car and think at least I didn't enslaved Africa's young, didn't destroy the planet, and OMG never left as much waste on the planet then the seriously woke.

More good news from this great channel! You are doing us proud MGUY.

[@nigelbarry4048]

Anything the Australian labour government touches turns to shit and anything each way Albo is involved with is a disaster.

[@309lincoln]

Keep up your awesome work on telling the truth

[@stephanievaughan258]

The calculations just explained, on how much electricity is needed to power ten fast chargers in relation to powering an average home is shocking, why can’t people see that EVs are not the answer?

[@jimmywrangles]

Albanese is a one term PM, the people can't stand him because his lies verge on traitorous and he is a deeply arrogant man without the intelligence that would deserve being arrogant. He'll be voted out next election in a landslide, personally I'll be voting One Nation as they actually care about Australians and that's what I want.

[@ohwell2790]

All the while the availability of electricity is going down and getting more expensive.

[@JohnSmith-ux3tt]

Has the government turned off all the coal-fired power stations yet? That's when things will get interesting.

[@mikepickford1]

I'd love to know exactly how much or our money the executives of that company lined their pockets with on the way out. I am betting they all did very well and will go on the next OPM (other people's money) scam very quickly. One thing I learned from working in government circles - if you want to find the very worst sort of people, follow the flow of taxpayer's money.

[@MrDTF]

No problem, just connect a dieselgenerator to the charge station. They have done that for electric buses in a town in Sweden.😂

[@matthewgodwin3050]

The dominoes are falling, but maybe they were meant to. Maybe governments don't want people being able to travel. If there's no public charging network, and no Tesla supercharger network, then everyone with an EV is effectively on a short tether to their home charger. If indeed they have one.

[@royblackburn1163]

Smart chargers can be controlled remotely, oh dear.

[@davidclark7584]

Don't worry though I'm sure the upper management skimmed off plenty of cash so they will be fine.

[@brokenujoints3811]

I appreciate your concise reporting! To the point! Awesome!

😅😅😅😅 Money grabbers go down the pan 💩🚽, did they government funding though? OH DEAR, WHAT A PITY NEVER MIND EH?

Traded on the stock exchange, a public corporation 💩🚽🧻

[@robertkubrick3738]

@@melissasmess2773 But still receiving government grants. The US charging companies certainly were and they were publicly traded also. Blackrock took the money early on and ran.

[@ianjohnson4753]

Politicians haven't got a clue. They really don't know anything about what's happening in reality.

[@shawnpatrick4703]

Is convenience of charging location a consideration. Convenience of location is a major factor for every other business.

[@GregsKitchen]

Whatever the government tells you, believe the exact opposite.

[@davidmarshall5596]

Ooooooooooooh the EV gift just keeps on giving 😂🎉

[@evil17]

EV Grift, you mean?

[@PaulRubino]

0:31 ❝10 superchargers operating at 350 KW consumes the same amount of electricity as 500 average homes❞ That is a staggering amount of electricity. Is there a grid ANYWHERE in the world that can mass amounts of EVs? I doubt it?

[@dougpace7731]

Excellent common sense. A flawed business model from the start sold to clueless politicians.

[@kellyco4139]

Surprise Suprise and this is just the beginning . Thanks Albo and Bowen

[@ldnwholesale8552]

Run away run away,,that describes the whole EV scene. Meanwhile this Govt is allowing very unsafe Chines EVs into the country. and that is RUN AWAY!! And yes Australian Teslas are made in China

[@seantomo]

Just like byd....beyond your dreams. Bang, bang, boom. The mainstream motoring public is so dumb.

[@AnyoneSeenMikeHunt]

The whole of Australia is collapsing into administration. 🙄

[@peterpeter-x5y]

I choose to keep a car manufactured in the 1980's which is simple and cheap to maintain either by myself or by a small mechanical repairer work shop which is family owned and I always pay with cash so the corporate government cannot track me. Where there is choice I choose to avoid interaction with corporations. Even though my car is nearly 40 years old I still seem to get to the same places and at the same speed as the new cars. I refer to it as a 'smart car' because it doesn't tell me what to do, there are no alarms and no engine management computer to fry using remote scanners, and especially no connectivity to satellite GPS tracking revealing my exact position 24/7. The world has gone stupid.

[@royblackburn1163]

Speed limits are the main car leveller, my 35 year old Land-rover spends most of it's time in 30 mph limits, towing a trailer it can keep pace with a Ferrari towing a trailer ha ha.

[@sullivanrachael]

The British Prime Minister was once asked where he thought electricity came from (by an exasperated person): Boris is alleged to have said - ‘The wall socket!”

[@kevint3845]

Tritium, they named an electric company tritium, tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen.

[@SpareSomeChange8080]

And quite a short lived isotope too, only a 12.5 year half life

[@SolAce-nw2hf]

Yup, the only nuclear waste that can not be filtered and just leaks into rivers and oceans 24x7 . The way to make this legal is to dilute it with enough fresh water to get below the acceptable radiation level.

[@xraylife]

9/11 - Tritium at 55x normal in the water run off - Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Go figure...

[@jamesocker5235]

Extraordinary growth to zero dollars, really a race to the bottom

[@tassie7325]

At leas Albo got one thing right when he 'hailed it as the future', as we are watching the industry collapse.

[@paulwood5738]

Good on you AN AL.

[@lancegoodall5911]

Tritium collapses, as does Albanese’s ability to run Australia 🇦🇺 😮😅

[@evil17]

Was he ever able?

[@Jack-It-UP]

Great reporting, thanks.

[@stevenblack3092]

Albo has the reverse Midas touch as you said everything he touches turns to shit 😊

[@PWC67]

It’s not fair that the majority of drivers pay 46 cents in fuel excise per litre for road infrastructure and the EV drivers pay nothing yet could damage roads more with their heavy vehicles !

[@DirkusTurkess]

The only thing they couldn't grow is profits. The one thing that actually mastered.

[@edb3877]

One can only hope that the PM put a LARGE part of his personal wealth into Tritium stock shares. Ah, justice would be SWEET!
