This isn't funny .... No, actually it's hilarious.
The climate saving flaming battery cars that use dirty coal to charge.

So, couple things, I don't know if Tesla envisioned highways lined with Tesla coils to power cars, but I think Netherlands has a road with induction charging but into the road.
Also, this battery problem is solved with solid state batteries. Graffeine layered matrix batteries work like a super capacitor. Charge very quickly, like 20 mins or less and discharge like a normal battery. The tech still needs some improvement, but its already 80% there and no nasty battery acid.
" I think Netherlands has a road with induction charging built into the road."
And, yet, we can't seem to build a road that doesn't become pothole-ridden in just a couple of years and requires constant patching and repaving.
Yeah I hear you. I mean, budgets, lots more roads in N America compared to Netherlands, and a greater seasonal temperature swing, makes the road heave, at least in Northern states. I imagine budgets are a big factor. Also roads in Europe generally don't have as heavy traffic, including trucks due to better rail infrastructure.
I'm not excusing n America, but these are some valid reasons.
Maybe if we stopped sending money to fund transgender research in Pakistan we’d have money for roads.
What an amazing and novel idea! I completely agree!
mass production is the major problem with graphene battery tech.
Yes it is.... hopefully sometime in the near future it won't be.
