Yes, the batteries are totes dirty than oil. I hear people are vacationing in Alberta’s oil sands!

Lol. 80%+ of EVs are charged at home, usually overnight and rarely at peak hours. This isn’t the problem you think it is.
People charge EV’s when they are home. In California it’s cheaper to charge your EV in the middle of the day then overnight.
if You’re running solar then yes. If youre not, then not even close. Sdg&E has super off peak from midnight to 6 at $.10/kWh versus $.59 from 4-9 pm. regular rate is $.39 or so. So an overnight 100% charge for most EVs is around $10.
With or with out solar, peak for SCE is 4-9PM or 5-8PM depending on your tariff.
SDG&E is similar with peak rates from 4-9PM
Are you sure you're not reading an industrial rate? I don't see anywhere where you can buy residential power for .10 per kw/h. The cheapest super off peak for SDGE I can see is .23.
California has abundant power in the middle of the day. So much so that at times during the year they have to pay other ISO's to take their surplus. That's why power is less expensive (but more expensive than anywhere else) during the middle of the day which in the past had been the peak hours.
first plan. There’s a $16 flat fee but the overnight rates are well worth it.
It isn’t cheaper to charge in the middle of the day (than in late off hours) in San Diego. The Tesla on-board computer allows an owner to program “when” to charge and then charges at that time. The lowest rate for SDGE consumers is between 12:00 a.m. and 6 a.m. Owners simply need to program their cars and remember to hook up the charger cable. Sold my 1969 Boss 302 (original condition) and used the $ to buy my wife a Tesla Model Y (small SUV). I think our electric bill last month was a little over $80 (think one fill up of the Boss 302).
It looks like LADWP has similar programs. Fuck Edison right in the center of their asshole.

It really is a great deal. I can charge for a month for about the price of one tank of gas.
That's such a stupid strawman, even for you.
Nobody claimed that EVs are 100% waste free or 100% renewable or 100% anything.
Nobody claimed that we we will or should be 100% fossil fuel free.
That's just you, building your stupid strawman.
EVs are leaps and bounds more environmentally friendly than ICE after everything is taken into account.
Change your diaper.

For a typically train lovin’ “progressive” you sure don’t know much about actual…..trains.
Does this not make you love trains even more?!!
Dems are in support of turning active dams into hydro.
Can Retrofitting Dams for Hydro Provide a Green Energy Boost?
With the era of building big dams over in the U.S., a growing number of existing dams are being modified to produce hydropower. These projects, advocates say, avoid the damaging impacts of new dams and could generate enough renewable electricity for several million homes.
