[QUOTE="YFCvii, post: 326232, member: 3252"] EVs would not be a big seller these past couple of days in parts of New Brunswick. 100,000 lost power and some going past 24 hours with out it now. All the portable generators came out (fossil fueled) to power Electric Heated only houses on my street there - however the power plants were not impacting for anything that would be 220v. So no EV charging unless by a much larger generator (hehe like mine). I’m an ICE old schooler though. 220v is for the water heater/boiler for my in-slab heat. So mandate these EV thingys all you want but they will be useless without fuel for power generation - especially in the darkest Dec days of the year. YYSSW … 100,000 without power is insignificant … unless you do a simple math equation to calculate the percentage of the population that lost power there. Ok … time for Wine (not whine) 😂 [/QUOTE]
