[QUOTE="Vette1993, post: 189948, member: 4304"] Tourmax, that is what I always felt. I live in Quebec, where hydro-dam produced electricity is relatively cheap and plentiful. But when you have eventually saturated the grid with electric vehicles, couple that to the fast growing cities that have expanded well beyond their former sizes, where is the infrastructure to accommodate this extra pressure. Now take an area that does not have access to hydro power, and must burn oil or coal to meet these demands. Now the "pollution savings" of electric vehicles is completely negated by the increase of burning fossil fuels. We can't win no matter which way we turn. And solar power can never keep up to the demands, wind power would help out the cause but could never be completely relied on. [/QUOTE]
