California gubmint sez ... You can't buy a gas powered car ... also ... You can't plug in your electric car
🧠 These people are stupid!
And THAT is exactly the scheme.
California will suffer an energy shortage and “Flex Alerts” through Labor Day due to high temperatures, and residents will be asked to conserve electricity during afternoons and evenings, which means refraining from charging electric vehicles, among other uses.
I've got a solution for this. Direct solar charging for electric vehicles. But I don't want to move to California.
This phenomenon is known as the duck curve. Solar generation peaks around noon, but demand peaks in the afternoon and evening hours. It got the name because the graph looks like a duck.
One solution is workplace EV chargers. Have the cars suck up energy as it's being generated.
put a wind turbine on top of the car to charge the battery as you drive. lol
Or have a big water tank mounted above the car, and have the water flowing out power a turbine that then charges the battery, that then powers the electric motor in the car :)
