One of the common arguments you hear from people in America who are not fans of the idea of electric vehicles is that they are mostly charged from electricity produced from coal power plants. At a high level, 15 states with 25% or more of electricity form renewable sources accounted for 53.5% And so “EVs are bad.”

Wires have a lot going for them when it comes to moving electric power around, but they have their drawbacks too. Wires also challenge electric utilities: These companies must take pains to boost the voltage they apply to their transmission cables to very high values to avoid dissipating most of the power along the way.

We have a free market; therefore if Americans truly wanted to make the switch to electric vehicles, then they would buy them — no government interference necessary. The truth is that electric vehicles aren't a reliable option for everyone, nor are they affordable. People shouldn't be compelled to purchase them.
