El Paso winter-proofed their generating facilities. El Paso kept the lights on

Originally, Musk said that the origami-body **was** the chassis

Jguar i-Pace comes with a cable & plug for a standard wall socket as standard, at least in the UK market

The grid is sized for peak load

“Nothing, and I mean nothing, can accurately predict the behavior of human decisions made behind the wheel of a car.”

Like Hawai’i, Scotland has many grids because of its several island archipelagoes

The point:

Especoally since Tesla’s original marketing was with videos of it being used hands-free

...And you can’t start every journey from your off-street parking fully-fuelled in an ICEV

Sounds like they’d now just build it into their prices for work/travel

If your operator has off-street parking at home, start from home is also fuel from home. You could then add fuel during work breaks. And then, if necessary, fuel during work time.

Yep - this is much more like felony murder than it is like manslaughter.

Using the public roads as a raceway in a big, heavy, extremely high-powered vehicle and ploughing into vehicles in your path whole you race is not the same as accidents that happen on your commute.

Then perhaps juveniles shouldn’t be put in charge of the biggest, heaviest, most powerful vehicles.

883Wh is a small capacity 12V car battery.

Flying is about to become the new gas-guzzling

SARS & MERS were stomped on by the countries that first had them.uckily they never made it to MS, where they’d be given the chance to flourish 

That graph makes it look like, nowadays, it’s food OR college

The grid is sized for peak demand.

Which means that about 60% of the vehicles on teh road can go EV before you need any extra generating capacity.

What you then need is a lot of power storage.

Luckily, every EV is another very big battery pack that is going to be connected to the grid a lot of the time.

“Flying is not only the fastest way to cross an ocean it is also the most energy efficient way”

Carbon footprint for a a short haul overland flight is about 10x for a train, and about 10x for a car with 3 people in it.
