One of the big objections to electric vehicles, and even more to clean energy, is that the power grid isn’t always up. You can’t use solar power! Severe storms? You can’t charge your EV. Sun not shining? Who thought any of this was a good idea?? How much government cheese is going into this crap?! […].
