We have started to find out the hard way that wind and solar are pitiful in winter especially when we have no meaningful wind for days on end. coal generation met 40% of power demand a decade ago – just a handful of coal plants are left on the grid today. Let’s look at the bigger picture: – What has Europe done?

If the power is generated using solar or wind power, then EV driving is emission free. During peak times, energy can also be supplanted by onsite storage and even from other vehicles using V2G (vehicle-to-grid) technology. In Europe, 93% of the population has the option to use 100% renewable power for charging vehicles.
